Syllable structure

The syllable structure for non-final syllables is (O)V(ː)((C)D(ː)), and for final syllables (O)V(ː)((C)D). For both syllable types, V can be any vowel. For non-final syllables O can be any consonant except /p/ or/ŋː/, and for final syllables any consonant except /ŋː/. The C and D have certain constraints. For non-final syllables, the coda can be any of the following consonants or clusters: n nd ns nʒ nx nh nts ndʒ p b t d k g s st sk ʃ ʒ x h ʋ ʋd ʋs j jt jd jk jm jn jr js jx jts jdʒ jl r rt rd rk rm rs rx rts rj lt ld lk lm ls lʒ lx lts ldʒ lj
