The onset may contain up to three consonants: '''C<sub>3</sub>''' is notated differently because phonetically there always is one, as phonemically vowel-initial syllables are always pronounced with a preceding {{IPA|[ʔ]}}. Any consonant bar {{IPA|/ɴ/}} can appear in this position; '''C<sub>2</sub>''' can be any other consonant except aspirated or breathy-voiced stops (with a single exception) or {{IPA|/ʔ/}}, but, if C<sub>3</sub> is a stop, no stop can be in this position. If C<sub>3</sub> is {{IPA|/ɴ̆/}} , then C<sub>2</sub> may be {{IPA|/c͡ɕʰ/}}. C<sub>1</sub> may be a sibilant, {{IPA|/ʋ/}}, or a nasal agreeing in PoA with the following consonant. Note that '''ss-''' and '''vv-''' are both valid onsets under these rules.<br/>See the following section on ''Clusters'' for the list of all possible clusters. | The onset may contain up to three consonants: '''C<sub>3</sub>''' is notated differently because phonetically there always is one, as phonemically vowel-initial syllables are always pronounced with a preceding {{IPA|[ʔ]}}.
