Phonology

Thamonic is defined by a large amount of allophony and a moderately complex possible syllable structure.

Consonants in Standard Thamonic

Nasal m n (ŋ)
Plosive p~f~v t~θ~ð tʃ~dʒ k~x~ɣ
Fricative f~v s~z ʃ~ʒ

Plosives become fricatives unless they're at the beginning of a word, or part of fricative-plosive clusters (Though, it is possible to turn a plosive into a fricative if it's at the beginning of a word starting a consonant cluster). All consonants become voiced intervocalically, and devoiced word-finally (though this does not apply to nasals).
