Phonology
Nesītōke's phonetic inventory has not expanded that much from Toki Pona (Tōpina as it is called in Nesītōke), mainly getting more complex in its phonotactics.
Consonants
| Labial | Coronal | Dorsal | |
|---|---|---|---|

- The two fricatives, /f/ and /s/, vary in voicing and in some contexts are [v] and [z].
- The rhotic, /r/, is a flap [ɾ], or in some dialects a lateral approximant [l].

- Long vowels are sometimes analyzed as sequences of two of the same vowel. However, since sequences of two vowels usually denote two distinct syllables, this is debated.
