Classification and Dialects
Proto-language for Iathi, Vaseyka, and Throlyen.

Consonants

 * plosives, nasals and /h/ may be geminate
 * [ɹ] in initial consonant clusters, [r] in syllable coda and intervocallically.
 * geminate /h/ becomes [ħ]

Vowels

 * all vowels can be long

Diphthongs
Permitted diphthongs include /ai/, /au/, /aɨ/, /eɨ/, and /oɨ/ /ai/, /au/, /ei/, /ou/, /eu/, /oi/, /iu/ and /ui/.

Phonotactics
Syllable onsets are allowed to be one of the following structures: (h/T)(T)(R/h/s/l), (D)(D)(R/z/l), or (N)(R), where T = {p t k}, R = {ʋ r j ʁ}, D = {b d g}, and N = {m n ŋ}. Clusters with /h/ become phonetic pre- or post-aspirated stops. Syllable medials can be monophthongs or diphthongs. Syllable codas may be (N)(S), where N = {m n ŋ l r} and S = {s z m n ŋ}. All intrasyllable TT, DD or NN clusters must be homorganic, effectively rendering them geminates.
