*If long consonants ''m'' /N:/, ''w'' /W:/ and ''j'' /j:/ come before the first heavy syllable in a word, they undergo reduction which gives rise to light syllables: ''lawenat'' /lɑ'''.ʉɥ'''eˈnɑtʰ/ (cover), ''temuyapakte'' /t͡ɕe'''.ə̃n'''u'''.ɨj'''äˈpɑx.t͡ɕe/ (funeral ceremony) | |||
*Word-initial ''w'' before a back vowel is realized as /əw-/ and before front vowels as /əɥ-/. Word-initial ''y'' is similarly /əj-/ and ''m'' is /ən-/. In coda, ''y'' is used only after ''a'' and ''e'' for diphthongs /äɪ̯/ and /ei̯/ respectively | *Word-initial ''w'' before a back vowel is realized as /əw-/ and before front vowels as /əɥ-/.
