Notes

Syllable structure is (C)V.

/ⁿs/ is only phonemic in the 'western dialect' spoken in Kawata, Angkona, and Pabeta.

Stress is predictably penultimate, but may shift back to produce a diphthong if the penult is the second of two contiguous vowels.

Allophonic rules

ⁿd > ⁿr / 'in the speech of some older people'
ʔ >~ 0 / #_
β > ʋ / (non-canonical form - i.e. alternate representation of the phoneme)
u > ɤ / "in the proximity of /e/ and /i/"
