			Note that Yiddish is unusual among the [[Saxo-Syzkynic languages]] for distinguishing fortis and lenis plosives only with voicing, and not with aspiration at all.

			==== Letters used only in Hebrew loanwords ====
			The letters ב ,ח ,כּ ,שׂ ,ת ,תּ are used for the sounds /v/, /χ/, /k/, /s/, /s/, and /t/ in many loanwords from [[Hebrew]]. Usually, Hebrew loanwords are spelled as they would be in Hebrew, with abjadic conventions.

			==== Sound correspondences in Araçanic loanwords ====
			The [[Araçanic]] sounds /s̪/ and /x/, which do not occur in Yiddish, are approximated with /t͜s/ and /χ/. A uvular pronounciation of Araçanic /x/ is one of the distinctive features of a Yiddish accent.

			==== Consonant allophony ====
			/r/ is realized as a trill when adjacent to a consonant, and as a tap when between vowels.

			/v/ is weakened to an approximant [ʋ] after an onset consonant.
