Comments:

Iranxe voiced bilabial stops occur only word
initially, and are optionally prenasalized but they
contrast with nasals before both oral and nasalized
vowels. Nasalized vowels before stops have a nasal
consonant offset. Vowels (but not diphthongs apparently)
occur both long and short. Labialisation of bilabials and
in /tW/ is replaced by palatalization when the following
vowel is /u/.
