Allophony

Non-back vowels and palatal semivowels [j i] become central [ ɨ] before a velar semivowel. [j] are deleted.
Non-nasal consonants [k͡pʰ b g ...] persistently assimilate in voice to a preceding consonant other than an approximant. After a voiced stop or nasal, aspirated consonants become unaspirated; [s̻] are deleted.
[ɨ] become [i] before a palatal semivowel.
Non-back vowels and non-velarised semivowels [j̥ j i ɨ] assimilate in frontness or palatalisation to a following consonant. Before a consonant, semivowels are deleted.
Unaspirated voiceless obstruents other than [s̻], i.e. [k͡p p t̻ k], persistently become aspirated [k͡pʰ pʰ tʰ̻ kʰ] after a glottal fricative.
Alveolar voiced consonants other than [l̻], i.e. [n̻ d̻], become non-nasal approximant laterals [l̻ l̻] after an alveolar approximant.
Non-pharyngeal unrounded non-palatal consonants [m p k ...] persistently become front [mʲ pʲ c ...] before a palatal semivowel.
[ɨ ɑ] assimilate in backness or velarisation to a following semivowel.
Non-nasal consonants [c͡pʰ tʰ̻ s̻ ...] persistently assimilate in voice to a following obstruent or nasal and become voiceless word-finally. Before a voiced stop or nasal, aspirated consonants become unaspirated; fricatives become non-alveolar semivowels; [hʲ] become [j].
Semivowels [j̥ j w̥ w] persistently become near-high [ɪ̯̥ ɪ̯ ʊ̯̥ ʊ̯] before a lax vowel.
Unaspirated voiceless stops [c͡p p t̻ʲ ...] persistently become aspirated [c͡pʰ pʰ tʰ̻ʲ ...] after an aspirated consonant.
[ɑ] become [ʌ] before a semivowel.
Aspirated stops [c͡pʰ pʰ tʰ̻ʲ ...] persistently become unaspirated [c͡p p t̻ʲ ...].
Unaspirated voiceless stops [c͡p p t̻ʲ ...] become aspirated [c͡pʰ pʰ tʰ̻ʲ ...] before a glottal fricative.
Nasals [m mʲ n̻ n̻ʲ] become nasals and assimilate in place of articulation to a following obstruent or nasal.
Obstruents [c͡pʰ b d̻ʲ ...] persistently assimilate in voice to a following non-nasal consonant other than an approximant and become voiceless word-finally. Before a voiced stop, aspirated stops become unaspirated; obstruents other than stops become non-alveolar semivowels.
