Proto-Angelic is a reconstructed ancestor of the Angelic languages.

Phonology

Consonants

m n ŋ
b d g
p t c k~q kⁿ
f~v s~z x~ɣ h hʷ
w r l j ɥ
Notes
  1. *q and *k are in complementary distribution. In this article are described as allophones of */k/.
  2. It is not certain if *sʷ were distinguished from *sw (*s + *w).
  3. The voiced fricatives almost never occur initially. In this article they are considered intervocal allophones of the voiceless ones.
