The distinction between /kr tr t͡ʃr/, as well as between /gr d͡ʒr/, has been historically neutralised, leading to a varying pronunciation:

* ⟨kr⟩ may be heard as ~~/tɹ kɹ t͡ʃɹ/;~~

* ⟨kr⟩ may be heard as /tɹ̥ kɹ̥ t͡ʃɹ̥/;

* The approximant may be devoiced, leaving /tɹ̥ kɹ̥ t͡ʃɹ̥/;

* In the most [[w:Basilect|basilectal]](''Kriyal'') varieties, the stop may be simply [[w:Aspirated consonant|strongly aspirated]], leaving /tʰː kʰː t͡ʃʰː/;

* The realisation may be aspirated [[w:Retroflex consonant|retroflex]] /ʈʰ/, and similarly [[w:Voiceless retroflex affricate|affricated]] to /ʈ͡ʂ ʈ͡ʂʰ/.
