Breathy-voiced vowels are closely related to {{IPA|/Vɦ/}} sequences as, in many cases, instances of the latter are what historically created the former. In Chlouvānem saṃdhi, {{IPA|/Vɦ/}} sequences at the end of a morpheme become {{IPA|/V̤/}} when followed by a consonant and, viceversa, breathy-voiced vowels become {{IPA|/Vɦ/}} sequences when followed by a vowel. This is especially notable in declension and conjugation: | Breathy-voiced vowels are closely related to {{IPA|/Vɦ/}} sequences as, in many cases, instances of the latter are what historically created the former.
