Alemarese

Consonants

 * The interdental nasal /n/ and partially the alveolar flap /r/ assimilate to the place of articulation of the following consonant.
 * The velar nasal /ŋ/ doesn’t occur word-initially or morpheme-initially.
 * The uvular stop /q/ is pronounced as a glottal stop [ʔ] in the coda.
 * Whether or not /z/ is a separate consonant and its degree of separation from /s/ both differ from dialect to dialect.
 * The velar fricative is pronounced as a palatal [ç] after /i/ or /e/.
 * The labialized velar approximant /w/ has many origins and thus alternates with several other phonemes. It is the pronunciation of /v/ before back vowels, of /l/ in the coda, and of /u/ in many diphthongs.

Vowels

 * The close vowels /i/ and /u/ lower in response to a following /ŋ/, /k/, /g/, and /q/.
 * The front open vowel /a/ raises to [æ] before alveolar consonants in some dialects.
 * /a/ backs to [ɑ] when adjacent to a uvular stop [q].
 * Any two vowels can become rising or falling diphthongs (120 in total).

Stress
Stress is typically before the last consonant, unless said consonant is  or  ; however, stress is contrastive, and is thus marked in non-obvious locations by a grave accent.

Transliteration

 *  is pronounced /tʃ/ before front vowels.
 *  is pronounced /dʒ/ before front vowels.
 *  is pronounced /w/ before consonants.
 *  is pronounced /w/ before back vowels.
