• Consonants with the dot accent can’t appear before a vowel. When the corresponding sound is before a vowel, it’s written without the accent and an i next to the consonant. (e.g. maṡ+a=masia).
• r at the end of a word is pronounced as /ð/.
• The approximants aren’t pronounced correspondingly when in between two consonants.
• When a voiced and voiceless consonant are right next to each other, they both become voiceless.
• p t are the end of a word pronounced as /p̚ t̚/, respectively.
• g in between two of the same vowel is silent.
