<li><b>/f/, /h/, /ʔ/</b> are only used in loanwords.
<li><b>/v/</b> or <b>/w/</b> are allowed instead of <b>/β/</b>.
<li><b>/tʃ/</b>, <b>/ts/</b> or <b>/ɕ/</b> are allowed instead of <b>/tɕ/</b>.
<li><b>At the beginning of a word</b> <b>/dʒ/</b>, <b>/dz/</b>, <b>/dʑ/</b>, <b>/ʑ/</b> or <b>/ʒ/</b> are allowed instead of <b>/j/</b>.
<li><b>/h/</b> is interchangeable with <b>/χ/</b>.
<li>In a hard context <b>/q/, /ʁ/ (/ɣ/)</b> are allowed instead of <b>/k/, /g/</b> respectively.
<li>In a soft context <b>/k<sup>j</sup>/, /g<sup>j</sup>/, /l<sup>j</sup>/</b> are allowed instead of <b>/k/, /g/, /l/</b> respectively.
<li>In native words the difference between <b>p/t/k</b> and <b>b/d/g</b>,
isn't very meaningful.

===Vowel harmony===
<p>In a native Jaŋatil word each vowel must be either <b>soft</b> (front) or <b>hard</b> (back). This is
called <b>front/back harmony</b>. The same
is true for loanwords with the exception of letter <b>i</b> &mdash; we can combine it not only with the soft <b>e, i, ö, ü</b>
but also with the hard <b>a, ı, o, u</b>. Thus any loanword
written in the standard Latin alphabet can be borrowed without change.
<p>There is <b>no</b> rounded/unrounded harmony in the written language.
Therefore in native words the weak rounded vowels <b>u, ü</b> may only be in the first syllable.
However, one should round <b>ı, i</b> while speaking when they come immediately
after a rounded vowel.
 
===Word stress===
<p>Word stress is <b>always</b> put on the last vowel. But if you
want to emphasize a word then you may stress another syllable.
