Emphatic consonant Akkadian (DMG-umschrift transliteration) Ṣṣ /sʼ/, Ṭṭ /tʼ/ Because Akkadian is an extinct language, the exact pronunciation can't be known for sure;[4] so the phonemic representation here might not be entirely accurate.
Ancient Egyptian (traditional transliteration) Ḥḥ /ħ/, Ḳḳ /qʼ/ The pronunciation of Ancient Egyptian changed much during the millennia it was spoken, and the exact pronunciation can't be known for sure,[5] therefore the phonemic representation here might not be entirely accurate.
