Emphatic consonants are uvularized, as in Arabic.
Aspiration is allophonic in voiceless stops. The Luminese dialect aspirates stops more strongly than in the Rencadic dialect.
====Gemination====
Every consonant except /w j h/ can occur geminated between vowels. Geminate taps are realized as trills.
Gemination is indicated in the orthography by doubling the consonant letter; geminate ''ng'' and ''NG'' are written ''nng'' and ''NNG'' respectively.

===Phonotactics===
Only CV syllables are allowed, except:
*a geminate consonant can begin a non-initial syllable
*CVC and CVCː are allowed as the last syllable
===Stress===
Stress is almost always on the first long syllable, or if no syllable is long, the last syllable in the Rencadic dialect and the first syllable in the Luminese dialect.
