− | Notes: |
||
− | *The modal voice palatal stops tend to be pronounced as affricates word initially, and stops elsewhere. The implosive palatal stops do not exhibit this alternation. |
||
− | */r/ can be pronounced as either a tap/flap, or a trill. In slower or more careful speech, the trill is more likely to surface. |
||
− | *The labial glide is not exactly [w], but there may in fact be velar co-articulation. Note that in certain morpho-phonological alternations, /w/ and /k/ pattern together, as well as /w/, /b/ and /p/. |
||
− | * The back fricative /χ/ is alternately pronounced as [χ] or [h]. In quicker speech, [h] is more likely to surface, with [χ] being the more common allophone in slower or more careful speech. |
||
− | * In quick speech, the prenasalized stop /nɟ/ is often pronounced as [nj]. |
