Notes[edit]
- ^ a b c Consonant and semivowel lengthening (optionally occurring in paroxytones after stressed short vowels, for semivowels only if also followed by a vowel) is represented in IPA by either doubling the consonant or through the ⟨ˑ⟩ marker (e.g. euggio [ˈøddʒu]/[ˈødˑʒu]).
- ^ a b c d e The latter realizations are most common in peripheric areas, such as Ventimiglia or southern Piedmont. In particular [ʃ] and [ʒ] are occurrences of /s/ and /z/ before consonants In the Tabarchino dialect of Carloforte.
- ^ a b As in most Northern Italian languages, Ligurian nasals never assimilate their place of articulation to that of the following consonant, differently from what happens in standard Italian. [ŋ] is used in all nasal plus consonant clusters, and it may only contrast with /n/ before vowels (e.g. pénn-a /ˈpeŋa/ 'sorrow' vs pénna /ˈpena/ 'quill').
- ^ a b All vowels can occur either in stressed or unstressed position, except short /ɛ/ which is always stressed.
