In most dialects, 'sj' is pronounced 'ʃ', with the exception of the word ''sjø'', which is pronounced [sjø]  The Northern dialect group does not follow this rule, and pronouces it as it is spelled ([sj]).  Additionally, the phoneme [ç] corresponds to the 'ch' in German (ich=[iç]) in all dialects, and is spelled 'kj' in words.
*(sj) denotes [ɕ] and (kj) denotes [t͡ɕ]
 
Additionally, if any consonant directly precedes 'r', that consonant is silent.  For example:
 
*<i>Vadr</i> [fa:r] - Father
 
Not all dialects follow this rule; some would pronounce it as [fɑ:tr]
