Modern Standard Rttirri has a four-vowel inventory.

In addition, the mid vowels '''e''' /e/ and '''o''' /o/ are used in loanwords.
===Phonotactics===
Stress falls on the first syllable.
 
Syllable structure is maximally CVN. There may only be one pharyngealized, ejective, or labialized consonant per root, although more may be added to a single word through compounding and affixation.


===Phonotactics===
==Grammar==
Modern Standard Rttirri does not allow final consonants, and the only initial clusters allowable are of the following form: ('''f s sy''') + ('''m n r rr'''). There are no geminate consonants.
 
===Nouns===
 
===Syntax===
 
==See also==


No dialects of Rttirri distinguish vowel length, but the following diphthongs are allowed: '''ai au ei eu ui iu'''.
