Notes on nasal consonants:
*/n/ is realized as [m ~ n̪ ~ n ~ ŋ] depending on what sounds surround it. At the beginning of most syllables, it will be [n]. At the end of a syllable, it will assimilate to the following consonant's place of articulation, including across word boundaries, or else be pronounced as [m].
*After a nasalized consonant, it may be dropped at the end of a syllable, especially at the end of a word.
Notes on allophony:
*/t/ will be [t̪] unless it comes before or after an alveolar consonant, in which case it's [t].
*/d/ will often be [ð] as a means of distinguishing it from [ɾ].
*/r/ will often be [ɾ], especially in fast speech, but never in the cluster /kr/.
*/b/, /d/, and /g/ may be [β,ð,ɣ] except when following a nasal.
*At the end of a syllable, /k/ may be [x] when following /a/, /o/, or /u/ or may be [ç] when following /i/ or /e/.
*/sj/ is pronounced [ɕ] when word initial. /kj/ is pronounced [ç] when word-initial.
