	labial	dental	alveolar	post-alveolar	palatal	velar	glottal
stops	p[p] b*		t[t] d*			k[k] g*	(ʔ)
fricatives	ɸ* β*	θ[3] ð*	s[s] z*	ʃ[ş] ʒ*		x[x] ɣ*	h[h]
nasals	m[m]		n[n]		ŋ*
liquids		r* l[l]
glides	w[w]				y[y]

[p t k x ʃ s l θ] → [β d g ɣ ʒ z r ð] In between vowels, when a consonant is before the final vowel of a word, it is often devoiced allowing possibilities like [ɸ]. After nasals and liquids [p] just becomes [b], rather than [β].
