* Many sequences are not read literally, as notably '''g''' has the tendency to disappear and influence neighboring sounds, which often influence their neighboring ones in a chain (note the ''-agor'' in the word ''Skyrdagor'', which is pronounced [ɒ˞], in a chain like *[agɔɽ] > *[aɣɔɽ] > *[ɑɔ̯˞] > [ɒ˞]). Final '''-eg''' (which is, amongst others, the 1SG past tense indefinite ending) is also pronounced [a]. '''lv''' is pronounced [w], and shifts neighboring '''y''' to [u], neighboring '''i''' to [ɪ], and neighboring '''e''' to [ə].
