===Stress and Phonation===
===Stress and Phonation===


One syllable in each word bears stress. Vowel phonation is phonemic on stressed syllables but not elsewhere. The phonations are harsh <> [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harsh_voice], breathy /a̤/ or /ä/ [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breathy_voice], and glottalised /aʔ/. Harsh and breathy vowels are both pronounced long, while glottalised vowels are pronounced short, and with glottalisation of the following consonant (or with a glottal stop [ʔ] in the case of word final syllables).
