Aromanian Language - Phonology

Phonology

Aromanian has differences from standard Romanian in its phonology, some of them probably due to influence from Greek. It has spirants that do not exist in Romanian, such as: (/ð/, /ɣ/, /x/, //θ/). Other differences are the sounds /dz/ and /ts/, which correspond to Romanian /z/ and /tʃ/, and the sounds: /ʎ/, final /u/, and /ɲ/, which do not exist in Romanian. It is written with a Latin or a Greek script, with an orthography which resembles both that of Albanian (in the use of digraphs such as dh, sh, and th) and Italian, (in its use of c and g), along with the letter ã, used for the sounds represented in Romanian by ă and â/î.
