Comments:

Initially nasal + stop clusters occur; as these
are among a larger number of medial clusters such clusters
are not treated as prenasalized stops. Stops are
"basically voiceless lenis stops", but voicing through
coarticulation is normal. There is no initial contrast of
alveolar and retroflex.
