Phonology

Initials (voiceless consonants are actually aspirated, and voiced consonants are unaspirated):

p b tx dx z s t d k g q ġ m n ny v l schl r w y /p b ! g! s z t d k g q ɢ m n ɲ v l ɬ r w j/

ph bh txh dxh zh sh th dh ch gh qh ġh mh lh rh /f v ɧ ɧ̬ h 0 θ ð x ɣ χ ʁ v w ɻ/

np nb ntx ndx nz nt nd nk ng nq nġ n-y /b m g! ŋ! z d n g ŋ ɢ ɴ ɲ/

nph nbh ntxh nzh nth ndh nkh ngh nqh nġh /v v ɧ̬ z 0 ð n ɣ w χ ʁ/

hm hn hny hl hr /m̥ n̥ ɲ̥ ɬ r̥/

Consonants that can't both eclipse and lenite are only eclipsed under the conditions that trigger lenition + eclipsis.

a e i o u w ö ü /a e i o ɨ u ø y/

aa ee ii oo uu ww öö üü /aː eː iː oː ɨː uː øː yː/

ai au aw aü ei eu ew eü ia ua wa üa /ai aɨ au ay əi əɨ əu əy iə ɨə uə yə/
