  • aere {hayẹrẹy}
  • kōdọ {kedaw}
  • ḷañ {ḷag}
  • utọr {witarʷ}

Inappropriate English approximations

The initial consonants in "beach", "meat", "near" and "peace" are not palatalized in English. Similarly, the consonants in "subway", "dust", "gym wear", "numb", "sleepwear" and "tough" aren't velarized either! Furthermore, it's pretty much impossible for a native speaker of English to differentiate between the initial /r/'s in "rat" and "roof". Why would we want to list "differences" between consonants that are never made in English? Kbb2 (ex. Mr KEBAB) (talk) 07:52, 12 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
