'''Notes:'''
<small><sup>1</sup></small> Depending on dialect, the palatal obstruents ''ḱ, ǵ, ḳ́, x́, j'' /cʰ, ɟ, cʼ, ç, ʝ/ may be fronted to [t͡ɕʰ, d͡ʑ, t͡ɕʼ, ɕ, ʑ] or even [t͡ʃʰ, d͡ʒ, t͡ʃʼ, ʃ, ʒ] (merging with the corresponding postalveolars).


<small><sup>1</sup></small> The velar consonants are truly velar when adjacent to front vowels and postvelar otherwise.
<small><sup>2</sup></small> The velar consonants are truly velar when adjacent to front vowels and postvelar otherwise.


<small><sup>2</sup></small> The guttural consonants ''q, x'', and ''h'' can be pronounced uvular or glottal depending on environment. The allophones are summarized in the table below. When two pronunciations are given, both are allowed but the first is more common.
<small><sup>3</sup></small> The guttural consonants ''q, x'', and ''h'' can be pronounced uvular or glottal depending on environment. The allophones are summarized in the table below. When two pronunciations are given, both are allowed but the first is more common.

<small><sup>3</sup></small> Alveolar [ɫ] before consonants, dental [ɫ̪] otherwise. Dental allophone may be pronounced [ð(ˠ)] or [ʁ] depending on dialect.  
<small><sup>4</sup></small> Alveolar [ɫ] before consonants, dental [ɫ̪] otherwise. The dental allophone may instead be pronounced [ð(ˠ)] or [ʁ] depending on dialect.  


<small><sup>4</sup></small> May be palatalized when adjacent to front vowels.
<small><sup>5</sup></small> May be palatalized when adjacent to front vowels.


<small><sup>5</sup></small> May be pronounced [ʝ] syllable-initially. Otherwise, pronounced [j].
<small><sup>6</sup></small> Pronounced [ʝ] syllable-initially. Otherwise, pronounced [j]. In non-careful or hypercorrect speech (particularly for speakers of dialects that front palatals), may be pronounced [j] in all environments.


<small><sup>6</sup></small> Pronounced non-distinctively as [r ~ ɾ] after stops. Otherwise, ''ṙ'' /r/ and ''r'' /ɾ/ are distinct.
<small><sup>7</sup></small> Pronounced non-distinctively as [r ~ ɾ] after stops. Otherwise, ''ṙ'' /r/ and ''r'' /ɾ/ are distinct.
