Phonology
Consonants
Tosï has 23 consonants:
| Labial | Alveolar | Palatal | Velar | Glottal | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nasal | m ⟨m⟩ | n ⟨n⟩ | ŋ ⟨ń⟩ | |||
| Plosive | Voiceless | p ⟨p⟩ | t ⟨t⟩ | ʧ ⟨ci⟩ | k ⟨c⟩ | ʔ ⟨∅⟩[1] |
| Voiced | b ⟨ṕ⟩ | d ⟨t́⟩ | ʤ ⟨ći⟩ | g ⟨ć⟩ | ||

| Voiced | v ⟨v⟩ | z ⟨z⟩ | ʒ ⟨zi⟩ | ɣ ⟨r⟩ | ||
| Liquid | w ⟨u⟩ | l ⟨l⟩ | j ⟨i⟩ | |||
- ↑ Due to Tosï syllabes having to start with a consonant, the previously orthographic h́ is now obsolete and this phoneme is hence unrepresented orthographically

Latijöseŋi
- Main article: Latijöseŋi
In situations where the Nahan script is unavailable or where it is, but without the Strappo, people use what is called Latijöseŋi (Tosï: latézióseńé Latézióseńé [latiʒˈseŋi], lit. "Latin-becoming") to write in Tosï.[1]
- ↑ Transliterations into scripts other than Latin are permitted, but most people use Latijöseŋi in everyday writing. For more information on one such other transliteration, see Kyrizhǎsengi.
