This table deals with the graphemes and IPA realisations of the graphemes. Unlike with vowels, there are no front, back, or middle consonants realised.
Grapheme | IPA Value |
---|---|
b | b |
c | tʃ |
d | d |
f | f |
g | g |
h | h |
j | j |
k | k |
l | l |
m | m |
n | n |
ng | ŋ |
p | p |
r | ɾ (ɹ is used following short vowels and at the end of syllables which are not followed by a vowel sound. If they are and the proceeding sound to the 'r' is a long/middle vowel, then ɾ is used instead) |
s | s |
š | ʃ |
t | t |
þ | θ/ð |
v | v |
w | w |
z | z |
ž | ʒ |
