===== Retroflex Consonants ===== | |||
The two retroflex consonants [ʂ] and [ʐ] are allophones of [s] and [z] after [r], [ɾ], and [ɹ]. For example, the word '''okorsa''' (of course), is pronounced [okoɾʂa]. | |||
The appearance of retroflex consonants elsewhere indicates a word that has been borrowed from Mandarin. The digraph '''rs''' is used to represent [ʂ], and '''rz''' is used for [ʐ]. If a vowel appears before rs or rz and the r is to be silent (indicating that the rs or rz is used to indicate only a retroflex consonant), the vowel must have a grave accent placed over it. | |||
====== Examples ====== | |||
'''ỳrzen (爱人)''' [aɪ̯ʐɛn] - lover - the grave accent is necessary to prevent the incorrect pronunciation [aɪ̯ɾʐɛn] | |||
<br/> | |||
'''rsan (山)''' [ʂan] - mountain | |||
<br/> | |||
'''gwòrsangfa (国上法)''' [gʷoʂaŋfa] - constitution | |||
