Tumetıęk/Lexicon

This page is an updated and wikified version of the non-searchable PDF lexicon (1626 KB) of Tumetıęk.

Annotations are used in this document to denote how word stems behave when affixes are attached to them.

• An apostrophe (’) indicates that an i-glide (written ı) is inserted before a following vowel other than /i/.
• An asterisk (*) indicates that the instance of n to its right is retained unchanged when followed by a consonant.
• A superscripted glottal stop (ˀ) indicates that a voiceless obstruent remains voiced between vowels or adjacent to a sonorant.
• A tilde (~) indicates that the preceding vowel is nasalised.
• Stem consonants that are missing from the lemma are epenthetic and are only pronounced when they (or the cluster containing one of them) are in front of a vowel.
