Alas alank

Dipthongs
There is only 1 diphthong in the Alasian language: /aɪ̯/.

Plosives
The phonology of Alasian is somewhat special because it restricts the use of some of the most common sounds in the world's languages: Plosives. The voiceless plosives /p/, /t/ and /k/ exist but they can only be found in very special phonological environments:
 * 1) They can only be the last sound of a word.
 * 2) They are always preceded by their "related" nasal consonant (/m/ before /p/, /n/ before /t/ and /ŋ/ before /k/) and no other consonant can be in the same cluster.

Palatal approximant
The palatal approximant /j/ occurs in Alasian but the sound doesn't alter the meaning of words. It only appears in vowel-initial words to prevent the glottal plosive /ʔ/.

Assimilation
All consonant clusters containing plosives are subject to assimilation. Whenever you add suffixes to words ending in plosives the plosives are dropped (because they aren't the last sound of the word anymore). In compensate for this loss, the preceding nasal vowels are changed in the following way:

Stress
The stress of Alasian is always on the first syllable of a word.
