Selected languages: Jomang
UPSID number: 4142
Alternate name(s): N/A
Classification: Niger-Kordofanian, Kordofanian
The languages has 21 segments

Sounds: [b] [d̪] [d] [ɟ] [ɡ] [s] [R] [l] [w] [j] [m] [n] [ɲ] [ŋ] [ɪ] [i] [ʊ] [u] [ɛ] [ɔ] [ä]
Comments:

Jomang has two level tones, falling tone has
been noted in word-final position. All continuants except
/n/ and /w/ are reported as geminates in Schadeberg's
data. He notes voiced and voiceless stops, but they can be
analyzed as only one series, voiced when single and
voiceless when geminate this interpretation is preferred.
