Gadsup language
Gadsup is a Kainantu language spoken by the people of the same name in Papua New Guinea.
Phonology
Consonants
- /ɸ, β, s, ɾ, x/ become plosives [p, b, t, d, k] when preceded by /N, ʔ/, but initially and medially they are [/ɸ, β, s, ɾ, x, ɾ].
The phonology of Akuna Gadsup is similar to Ontena Gadsup, except voiceless plosives don't lenite initially, but they do medially.
Vowels
/ɐ/ can also be heard as [ʌ̈].
