| ===Conservative Amísreg===
| |
| In Conservative Amísreg, the vowels '''o oo''' are consistently [o o:], and '''a aa''' are less back [ä ä:].
| |
|
| |
| '''r''' may be pronounced as a trill, [r] or [ɽr] in addition to retroflex fricative, approximant or lateral approximant realizations.
| |
|
| |
| Conservative Amísreg retains the Classical Sowaár 3-tone system in a simplified form, which moderners perceive as affected.
| |
|
| |
| *Classical Sowaár: á, a, à, áa, aà, aá, aa
| |
| *Conservative Amísreg: á, a, à, áa, aá, aa
| |
| *Modern Amísreg: á, a, áa, aá, aa
