Notes
↑Hver is usually pronounced as if spelled kver. [xʷ] is a part of a dialect from the Southern Region and is rare nowadays.
↑Vowels are usually long if they are stressed and followed by no more than one consonant, double consonants counting as more than one. Vowel length is not phonemic.
↑ 3.03.13.2Long [ɛː,ɔː,œː] are most typically realized as smooth transitions from [ɪ,ʊ,ʏ] to [ɛː,ɔː,œː]. Thus, they are monophthongs phonologically and diphthongs phonetically (ਫਰਮਾ:Harvcolnb, ਫਰਮਾ:Harvcolnb).
