Allophony

[w] become [o̯] after a mid-low vowel.
Velar obstruents or nasals [ŋ kʼ ɠ̰ ...] become non-velar or uvular bilabial [mˠ pˠʼ ɓˠ̰ ...] before an alveolar obstruent or nasal. [xʷ] become [w̥].
Obstruents [p t̻ ɓ̰ ...] persistently assimilate in voice to a preceding obstruent. After a voiced stop, non-implosive ejective stops become implosives. After a voiceless consonant other than [w̥], implosives become non-implosive.
Voiced vowels [i u ɛ ɔ] become creaky-voiced [ḭ ṵ ɛ̰ ɔ̰] before a creaky-voiced implosive.
Bilabial stops or nasals [m pʼ pˠʼ ...] assimilate in dorsality and uvularity and palatalisation and whether palatal or palatalised velar to a following obstruent or nasal.
Voiceless stops [k͡p pʼ t̻ ...] persistently assimilate in glottalisation to a preceding obstruent.
Nasals [ŋ͡m m n̻ ...] persistently become nasals and assimilate in place of articulation to a following obstruent.
Consonants [ŋ͡m b ɓ̰ ...] persistently assimilate in voice to a preceding obstruent or nasal. After a voiced obstruent or nasal, non-implosive ejective stops become implosives. After a voiceless consonant other than [w̥], implosives become non-implosive.
Consonants [ŋ͡m̥ g͡b ɓ̰ ...] persistently assimilate in voice to a following obstruent or nasal. Before a voiceless obstruent or nasal, implosives become non-implosive. Before a voiced obstruent or nasal, non-implosive ejective stops become implosives.
[g͡b b bˠ d̻ g i u ɛ ɔ] persistently become creaky-voiced after a creaky-voiced implosive. Stops become implosives.
Obstruents [k͡p bˠ ɓ̰ ...] assimilate in voice to a following obstruent. Before a voiced obstruent, ejective stops become implosives. Before a voiceless obstruent, implosives become non-implosive.
Unrounded non-bilabial velar stops or nasals [ŋ̥ k g ...] become rounded [ŋ̥ʷ kʷ gʷ ...] after a high rounded vowel or semivowel.
Short non-glottalised non-prenasalised voiced stops [g͡b bˠ g ...] become fricatives [w w ɣ ...] between a vowel or semivowel and a vowel or an approximant. [b bˠ] become [w w]; [g͡b] become [w]; [d̻] become [ɾ̻].
