<h4>Syllable summary table</h4>


<p>The following table summarises the main syllable to character assigments.</p>

<p class="instructions highlight">The left-hand column shows the basic CV shapes only; vowel length and onset labialisation are shown using letters with the same basic shape but including dots (see following sections). The middle column shows some alphabetic characters. The right-hand column shows (non-syllabic) consonant codas.</p>
