Three Consonants:

In this language, at the most clusters of three consonants can occur in the medial position. There are restrictions on the occurrence of three-consonant clusters and therefore these are very limited. There are three types of these clusters.
 

(1)

 

 C2C3 is any permissible two consonant clusters in the medial position and C1 is homorgamic to C2.
 

(2)

 

 C1 C2 is any permissible two consonant clusters in the medial position and C3 is /r,y/.
 

(3)

 

 C1C2 is any permissible consonant cluster in the final position and C3 is such that C2C3 is a possible two consonant cluster in the medial position.
 

A few examples are :

‘elephant’s trunk’

/sntro/ 

‘orange’

/jIndki/
