Phonology

Modern Nurian has a typologically unusual distinction between dental and alveolar stops and between many types of fricatives:

• t d = alveolar stops
• th dh = alveolar spirants (slit fricatives)
• þ đ = (unaspirated) dental stops
• þh đh = dental spirants
• s z = dental/alveolar sibilants
• ṡ ż = postalvelar sibilants
