Remarks
- [i] is written J when it functions as a semivowel in a diphthong.
- P' is pronounced [pχ] at the beginning of a syllable, [p] when it precedes a stressed vowel.
- UU is only long when it is stressed.
- "Op'on" is now pronounced [upÊ°] (Up'). "Okyyryn" is now pronounced [ˈciË?inɹɨ] (Kiinri).
- Officially Op'on uses the Kooton alphabet, though it is not well suited for the language.
- "Kooton" is now pronounced ['coË?toË?] (K'oot'oo).
