Vowels. This language consists of eight vowel sounds. It has the common five vowels (a, e, i, o, u) seen in many languages. Their sound can change based on their usage. There are also two closed-mid vowels: [e̞] and [o̞].
Stress. Unlike in Spanish where emphasis is often on the second-last syllable, in this language, the stress pattern is different and important for word meaning.
Consonants. Diverse consonant sounds are present. It has the 'l·l' sound, an interrupted "l", and 'ny', close to Spanish "ñ".
Intervocalic Voicing: When positioned between vowels, voiceless sounds (p, t, k) turn into voiced ones (b, d, g).
