Morphology notes
In Sakha, there are numerous consonant assimilations that differ by suffixes. As in /Nouns, there are also articulation of the corresponding native consonants. The definitions include:
- Sonorants: In most cases, all sonorant consonants (й, р) except nasals. The suffix form's first letter usually has voiced consonants.
- Nasals: All nasal consonants (м, н, ҥ). The suffix form's first letter usually has м or н. However I found a Chinese-language source[1] that the plural suffix , for example, have the assimilated form after -ҥ- ( → ), although in fact, the nasal velar variant is almost non-existent except the Baidu Baike page and its mirrors.[2]
