* Three ejectives
==Main table==
** {{IPA|/pʼ, , kʼ/}} ([[Nisenan language|Nisenan]], [[Waimoa language|Waimoa]])
Four particular inventories appear to be particularly common, each of them found in more than five languages from more than three separate families; these are also given in bold in the table below.

# /pʼ tʼ tʃʼ kʼ/

** {{IPA|/t̪ʼ, , tsʼ, kʼ/}} ([[Trumai language|Trumai]])
We see already from this that ejectives are especially likely to occur in languages that have either a uvular series of consonants, or two or more series of affricate consonants.

* † Contrasts with /tsʼ/ in only 3 cases.
* ‡ In only 1 case without also both of /kʷʼ qʷʼ/.
* ** Contains a number of languages counted here as having /tʼ/.
 
==Conlang survey==
Conlangs appear rather less disposed towards containing ejective affricates, while /cʼ/ appears to be much more frequent. Attested natlang systems mark'd with "√".

Main table

Four particular inventories appear to be particularly common, each of them found in more than five languages from more than three separate families; these are also given in bold in the table below.

  1. /pʼ tʼ tʃʼ kʼ/
  2. /pʼ tʼ tʃʼ kʼ qʼ/
  3. /pʼ tʼ tsʼ tʃʼ kʼ/
  4. /pʼ tʼ tsʼ tʃʼ kʼ qʼ/

We see already from this that ejectives are especially likely to occur in languages that have either a uvular series of consonants, or two or more series of affricate consonants.

Conlang survey

Conlangs appear rather less disposed towards containing ejective affricates, while /cʼ/ appears to be much more frequent. Attested natlang systems mark'd with "√".
