Substantial postings about constructed languages and constructed worlds in general. Good place to mention your own or evaluate someone else's. Put quick questions in C&C Quickies instead.

/m n ŋ/
/p t k (g) q ʔ/
/tʃ~ʃ/
/(f) v ð s ʂ x h/
/r l w j/

/a e i o u/
/aː eː iː oː uː/

/f g/ are only found in borrowings. [tʃ] and [ʃ] are almost perfectly complementary (almost). Vowel stress is not predictable. Geminated consonants are fairly common.

e: forgot a sample
