* p t q are pronounced as /p̚ t̚ q̚/ at the end of a word
* a dot accent can be added on ''c d l n r s t z'' to show palatalization
** ''ḋ ṫ'' represent /ɣʲ xʲ/
* when before a vowel, a consonant with a dot accent replaces the accent mark with ''i''
* doubling a consonant makes its sound longer
* when a voiced and voiceless consonant are next to each other, they both take the first letter's voicing
