Usage notes edit

Lhao Vo edit

Usage notes edit
High tone is written ⟨ʼ⟩ with a final plosive, including the otherwise unwritten glottal stop. The possibilities are thus aˮ amˮ anˮ angˮ abʼ adʼ agʼ aʼ (and similarly for other vowels).
Tundra Nenets edit
Pronunciation edit
Letter edit
ˮ
- The thirty-sixth letter of the Tundra Nenets alphabet, written in the Cyrillic script.
Usage notes edit
Usually marks instances of the glottal stop /ʔ/ that either do not participate in any alternation, or alternate with the oral stop д (d°) /d/, in contrast with the letter ʼ. Often transcribed q in scholarly sources. In some words the letter is silent and is used to indicate word-final consonants that are not followed by an unwritten schwa.
