proto-phonology

m n nʲ nˠ ŋʲ ŋ

p’ t’ tʲ’ tˠ’ kʲ’ k’

pʰ tʰ tʲʰ tˠʰ kʲʰ kʰ

b d dʲ dˠ gʲ g

ʋ l ʎ ɫ ʝ ɣʷ


i iː ɨ u uː

ɑ ɑː


a notable feature of the proto-phonology is the presence of sesquisyllables of the form (C)ɨSV(C)(C) where C is any consonant, V any vowel, and S /ʋ l ʎ ɫ ʝ ɣʷ/


succlythian phonology

m n ɲ ŋ

m̥ n̥ ɲ̊ ŋ̊

p’ t’ t͡ɕ’ k’

ɸ t͡sʰ t͡ɕʰ (c͡çʰ) x

p t tɕ j

v l ʝ w

l̥ ɽ̥̝͡r


i ɨ u

ʲe o

æ

eu̯ oi̯ øy̯ ɤɯ̯ æɨ̯ ɨe̯ ɨo̯ ie̯ uo̯
