Allophony:

-may drop vowel word-finally.
Phonetic rules:
-similar syllable onset and coda is forbidden; this is even down to a surfacing phonetic level; syllables with similar onset consonants in proximity is forbidden, resulting in the second similar consonant surfacing as a glottal stop (this sound is only associated with this phenomenon, and does not alter the spelling); the exception is similar consonants separated by another; coda consonants are not affected.
-/ŋ ʃ/ only exist in their respective clusters; they are written with barred <n s>; clusters with these in C2 position are written to reflect their older pronunciations, which have since shifted to /n s~ʃ/, everywhere.
-/ɬ~l l~ɾ/ don't occupy the same syllable, but do show up in proximity.
-/ia io iu ua ue ui/ may exist in closed syllables and may precede any consonant in open syllables.
-raising diphthongs and long vowels ONLY in open syllables:
-/au eu u: o:/ ONLY precede <n° t° c s° l r>.
-/ai oi i: e:/ ONLY precede <m n p t° s h l r>.
-only /e o a io ia ue ua/ may precede /m n ŋ l ɾ/ at syllable coda.
-clusters /mn ŋm ŋn/ retain their earlier pronunciation, [pn km kn], when preceded by /i u iu ui/; it is interchangeable after /a/.
