Comments:

A number of consonants analyzed by Shimizu as Cw
and Cj clusters have been included as single segments here
since they are phonetically single segments. Prenasalized
stops occur only before oral vowels; plain nasals occur
before nasalized vowels and these are regarded as
allophones of the prenasalized stops. Kpan has 3 level
tones.
