Bjeheondian accents

Voiceless stops /p t k/ are usually unaspirated [p⁼ t⁼ k⁼] in Bjeheondian accents. Voiced stops /b d g/ are fully voiced. Front fricatives /f θ s/ are by default voiced [v ð z]; they only devoice to [f θ s] when followed by an "inherently voiceless" consonant, i.e. one of /p t k ts x h ʔ/. (Thus obstruent voicing assimilation can be said to work like in Slavic languages or Israeli Hebrew.)

Standard Mategian/USB

Allophonic syllabic resonants in unstressed syllables: /əm ən əl ər/ become [m̩ n̩ l̩ r̩].

Fincreaș

Classical Windermere tł stays distinct unlike in other dialects.

Wieb

Uses uvular [ʀ] for /r/ (like Phnom Penh Khmer and Israeli Hebrew). It even vocalizes final /r/ to [ɐ] like German does.

Other Bjeheondian accents are shifting towards this.

Tsăloș

Ä is like /e/

Ü is exolabial like swedish

While u is endolabial

And ü is typically a monophthong while i is between /i:/ and /əi/

Ea, ie, oa and ua are lax

Hlou accent

/fi pɻits̠ tə'mɛː ja ŋɔs̠'ɻɛːx ɬəu/ Fi brits Dămea ya ngothreach Ław

Bjeheondian Windermere with a Skellan-ish accent

• /l/ is vocalized to [ɤ̯ˤ] and becomes [χˤ] after aspirated consonants.
  • /el ol il yl ul eəl oəl iəl yəl uəl/ = [ɛɤ̯ˤ ɔɤ̯ˤ ɪɤ̯ˤ ʏɤ̯ˤ ʊɤ̯ˤ eːɤ̯ˤ oːɤ̯ˤ iːɤ̯ˤ yːɤ̯ˤ uːɤ̯ˤ]
• /p t k/ are aspirated unless after a fricative, and /ə/ is deleted after aspirated consonants.
• Stressed vowels are lengthened in final open syllables and before /m n ŋ r b d g f~v θ~ð/. This is how final voiced and voiceless stops are distinguished.
  • TODO table: Canadian raising-like effects:
  • i: long: [i:] ~ short: [ɪ]
  • ie: long: [iə] ~ short: [jə]
• /f θ s/ are voiced after vowels to [v ð z], unless a voiceless consonant follows in sandhi.

Sătmaș

• th = [s̪~z̪] (like Basque z)
• s = [s̠~z̠] (Basque s)

Chăloa

Syllable-initial f, th, s are also voiced, in addition to syllable-final f, th, s.
