Phonology

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

t d = alveolar stops
th = alveolar spirants (slit fricatives, often pronounced as Welsh ll)
ŧ đ = dental stops
ŧh = dental spirants
s z = dental/alveolar sibilants
ṡ ż = postalvelar sibilants

Vowels: <a e i/y o u æ ie ea eo> /A e i o u æ y ea ø/ all with short and long counterparts

Consonants: <p ŧ t c ċ ķ k q b đ d dz ġ ģ g m n ņ ng hw f ŧh th s ṡ x w v z ż għ ħ ł l ļ ŗ r> /p t(dental) t ts tS c k ʡ b d(dental) d dz dZ J g m n ñ ŋ hw f θ θ(ret) s S x w v z Z ʕ ħ h l(dental, velarized) l λ r ʀ/
