For most speakers these pitches are not contrastive but are seen as proper and are required in recitations; marginal exceptions occur for speakers that assimilate voicing in clusters and for speakers that retain tone to some degree in loaned Knrawi or tonal substrate words. Ideophones also form an exception, often ignoring/violating pitch allophony. | ||
