Palatalization is neutralized for word-final consonants, however they assimilate to the palatalization of the next consonant: dån fniud [duənʲ fʲnʲud] 'one day'. Word final /v/ is pronounced [w].
Initial voiceless stops were traditionally not aspirated, but are commonly aspirated now.
Vowels
a/ia e/ie o/io å/iå y/i u/iu /a e o uə~iə i u/
Unstressed vowel: /ə/ (spelled a if nonpalatalizing and i if palatalizing)
Stress
Stress is always final, as in Windermere.
Phonotactics
Zero and C are the only permitted word-final codas.

Voiced stops are not allowed to begin minor syllables in roots. This rule does not apply to proper names.
