==== Obstruent Sonorization ====
Nonprenasalized and nongeminated consonants that occur intervocalically are voiced if the preceding syllable is unstressed:
* '''upaki''' /upaki/ = [u.baˈki]
** '''ubaki''' /uᵐpaki / = [ˈu.ᵐpaˈki], not *[ˈu.ᵐbaˈki]


*'''ńutasa''' /ŋutasa/ = [ˈŋu.ta.zə]
===== Intervocalic =====
** '''ńutassa''' /ŋutasːa/ = [ˈŋu.taˌsːa], not *[ˈŋu.taˌzːa]
Nonprenasalized obstruents are voiced in unstressed syllables:
{| class="wikitable" style="float:center; border: none; text-align:center"

|/p/ → [b]

|/k/ → [g]
|ipsum
|-
|/s/ → [z]
|ipsum
|-
|/ʃ/ → [ʒ]
|ipsum

If the preceding syllable is also unstressed, they are further sonorized:

|[b] → [β]
