Phonology
Consonants
| Consonants | ||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bilabial | Labio- dental |
Dental | Alveolar | Post- alveolar |
Palatal | Velar | Labialized velar |

Note:
- [ʔ]1is not recognised as an independent phoneme but it is inserted between two vowels, or between two identical consonants.
- [ɱ]2 and [ŋ]3 are considered allophones of the normal nasal phonemes in front of [f]/[v] and [k]/[g]/[kʷ] respectively.
Vowels
| Vowels | ||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Front | Near- front |
Central | Near- back |
Back | ||||||||||
| Close | i(ː) | u(ː) | ||||||||||||
| Close mid | e(ː) | o(ː) | ||||||||||||
| Mid | ə(ː) | |||||||||||||
| Open | a(ː) | |||||||||||||
Every vowel can be distinctively short and long.
No dipthongs are allowed. If two vowel are adiacent in a compound word, a glottal stop ([ʔ]) emerges to keep them separated.
