*Nasals can occur before or after non-guttural fricatives.

:*Nasals can occur before or after non-guttural fricatives.

*Liquids can occur before or after non-coronal stops but only before coronal stops.

:*Liquids can occur before or after non-coronal stops but only before coronal stops.

*When a labial and velar stop cluster, they may occur in either order. Coronal stops always follow other stops.

:*When a labial and velar stop cluster, they may occur in either order. Coronal stops always follow other stops.

*Semivowels do not occur before or after another consonant in native words.

:*Semivowels do not occur before or after another consonant in native words.

*Any non-guttural consonant (including semivowels) can be geminated between vowels.

The above hierarchy only applies within roots. It does not apply to compound words (e.g. ''~~muuzle~~'' "~~person who sells bananas~~"), loanwords (e.g. ''fahmi'' "to understand"), or at morphological boundaries (e.g. ''baxtá'' "she leaves").

The above hierarchy only applies within roots. It does not apply to compound words (e.g. ''dukkaanle'' "shop owner"), loanwords (e.g. ''fahmi'' "to understand"), or at morphological boundaries (e.g. ''baxtá'' "she leaves").
