Hi all! Just a linguistics major interested in learning about as many languages as I can!

Consonants:
In most cases, fortis and lenis refers to the voicing in consonants where fortis is voiceless and lenis is voiced In this case, plosives are distinguished by intra-oral peak pressure and stricture duration. Fortis consonants are usually longer in duration and have a greater intra-oral pressure while lenis consonants can often be pronounced as fricatives or approximants. The Burarra language also allows for the clustering of consonants

Vowels:
Burara has a five vowel system. The vowels can be realized as:

/i/: close-mid front vowel, [e], or [ɪ]

/a/: low central vowel or schwa

/ɛ/: [ɛ] or [e]

/o/: [o] or [ɔ]

/u/: schwa, a lowered open-mid back rounded vowel, a lowered [ö], or [ʊ]
