/ŋ/ is phonemically /ʔn/ and is written as such in Babamwikũ(⟨°○⟩) but is romanised as ''‘ng'' supposedly to fit the phonetic pronunciation, even if the glottal stop is not pronounced phonetically either. | |||
/ʔʲ/ is a phoneme of /j/ pronounced only in "absolute" initial positions, meaning it can revert to /j/ through [[w:Sandhi|liaison]], as in the word ''yagmũn''(°°∆Ż□7ʼ○) "board game" would be pronounced [ʔʲɐɡmũn], but if liaisoned with particles or other vowel-coda words before, a native speaker would typically pronounce the /ʔʲ/ as /j/, as in ''ti yagmũn''(ǀX °°∆Ż□7ʼ○) would be pronounced [ti͜ jɐɡmũn]. | |||
