-Plosives /t k kʷ ʔ/
-Fricatives /s h/
-Sonorants: /n r j w/
-Vowels: /ɨ a/
Phonotactics:
(s)CV({V, S})(({h, s}) O)
C: /t k kʷ ʔ s h n r/
V: /ɨ a/
S: /j w n r/
O: /t k kʷ ʔ s h/
/t/ becomes [t͡s] after high segments /j ɨ w/
/k h n s/ becomes [t͡ʃ ç ɲ ʃ] after /j/
/h n/ becomes [ʍ m] after /w/
/kʷ/ becomes [p] in coda, [ʷp] following long vowels
Obstruents become voiced between voiced segments
/ɨ/ elides if followed by /n r w j/ in the same syllable, those consonants become syllabic and assimilate to the preceding consonant
/aj aw/ become [ɛː, ɔː] stressed, [e o] unstressed
/i u a/ become [ɪ ʊ ə] unstressed
the secuence /kʷɨ/ becomes [ku]
/ɨ/ assimilates before or after a high vowel
/ɨ/ is inserted to break non permitted consonant clusters
/i u/ delete after the other one, the remainig vowel becomes long if stressed
/ʔ/ is inserted in onsetless syllables.
/r/ becomes [ɹ] in coda
And so on...
Stress
Verbs stress generally in the first syllable of the stem, unless a stress shifting prefix occurs. Nouns stress in the first heavy (bimoraic) syllable (sonorants are moraic). If there is none, they stress in the second syllable, which becomes long.
