Northwest Solomonic

Simbo dictionary (Version 3.0)

Alphabetic order

Items in the dictionary are listed in alphabetic order in the local orthography. The order is: a b d e g(γ) h i j(dž) k l m n/n(ŋ)/ñ o p q(ŋg) r s t u v(ß) y The palatal affricate is in free allophonic variantion with the voiced palatal fricative /ž/, often written locally as z. Note: all voiced plosives and the affricate are prenasalised. In the Broad Phonetic Form column prenasalisation is represented by the relevant nasal, but for the moment it is not superscript.
