Maung phonology

Consonant inventory

Vowel inventory

The phonemic inventories provided here are from Capell's well-known 1970 work on Maung. More recent papers (Singer 2006; Teo 2007 ) have only two rhotics to Capell's three. Teo lacks the alveolar flap, and Singer the retroflex flap. (In a minor difference, both describe the approximant as retroflex, whereas Capell describes it as alveolar.)
