Vowels
I'd imagine that you are thoroughly confused by the phonology, especially because it didn't use IPA (I couldn't find IPA for half of them anyway.)

The consonants marked with apostrophes are lateral sounds (I'm not sure if that's what they are really called but I'm sticking with it.)

To pronounce them, put the tip of your tongue at the base of your bottom teeth. Then, bend the rest of your tongue upwards until the center of your tongue is pressed against the base of the top teeth. Then, make a plosive, nasal, fricative, or lateral with your tongue in this position. You should sound like you have a lisp.

The consonants marked with CAPS are retroflex sounds. Pronounce them with the tip of the tongue touching  the very top of the mouth. 'r' is also a retroflex sound, but there is no 'R' to contrast it with, so it is left in lower case.

Plosive consonants make a three-way distinction, voiceless, voiced, and voiced aspirant.

They may also be labialized or palatalized (marked by a following y or w, respectively). Retroflex sounds may not be palatalized, and dental and alveolar-lateral sounds become palatal and palatal-lateral sounds on palatalization, respectively. The palatal plosives are more affricate in character than plosive, but they arise from plosives, and will be considered as such. A consonant may be only palatalized before a labial or neutral vowel (back or mid vowels), but not before another palatal vowel (front vowels). Thus, pyà and pya are permitted combiniations, but not pyá or pye.

The inverse applies to labial consonants, which may only stand before non labial vowels, thus pwi and pwï are permitted, but not pwu.

Fricatives and affricates are subject to the same rules, except that they may not be aspirated. v~w is considered an approximant, although it surfaces as the voiced bilabial fricative v before labial vowels, it cannot hold secondary articulation.

Nasals cannot carry any secondary articulations. Nasals are also only distinguished from eachother in the onset of a syllable, at the end of a syllable, they become the archiphoneme m*, which agrees with the following consonant in place and manner of articulation. If followed by a vowel, m* becomes, m before normal vowels, N before retroflex vowels, and n' before lateral vowels.
