Allowed initial clusters: '''pl, pr, phl, phr, vl, vr, tr, thr, ǃxr, ǃxhr, kl, kr, kw, khl, khr, khw'''
 
Many speakers in the capital Houwá Thing Vîer merge the pairs /pʀ pʰʀ/, /tʀ tʰʀ/, and /kʀ kʰʀ/. /ǃ(ʰ)ʀ/ is often pronounced as [ǃ(ʰ)]. Some dialects merge /ʀ-/ and /ŋ-/ into a nasalized uvular flap /ʀ̆ⁿ/ or approximant /ʁ&#771;/ and also simplify all Cr clusters to C.

===Tones===
Standard Neckthai uses 5 tones.
*Mid: ''raa'' /ʀāː/ [ʀaː˧] 'easy'
*Low: ''ràa'' /ʀàː/ [ʀaː˨˩] 'loud'
*Falling: ''râa'' /ʀâː/ [ʀaː˥˩˩] 'fruit'
*High: ''ráa'' /ʀáː/ [ʀaː˥] 'white'
*Rising: ''raaʔ'' /ʀǎː/ [ʀaː˨˩˦] 'vase'
 
==Orthography==
[[File:Neckthai_script.png]]<!--
Neckthai is written in a version of the [[Tergetian]] abugida.
 
A ''kháschàwijjálijn'' (''Gerschweierlein''; an analogue to the Thai ''thanthakhat'') is a %-like diacritic that marks consonants that are silenced in the Neckthai pronunciation of Wiebian loanwords. For example, ''wan'' 'body; physical object' is written ϕ<sub>n</sub>!ϙ<sup>%</sup> (''wand<sup>%</sup>'', reflecting Wiebian ''Wande'' 'body') with a ''kháschàwijjálijn'' over the ''d''.

==Loanwords==
Many {{PAGENAME}} words are derived from Wiebian and are pronounced close to [[Ancient Wiebian]] or early Middle Wiebian. For illustration of how [[Wiebian]] loanwords are treated in {{PAGENAME}}, this is the full name of Houwá Thing Vîer, the capital of Neckthailand:
