1.1 Phambano ya mibvumo ya muambo i tevhelaho (fhethu hune ya bulwa na
nḓila ya kubulelwe)
a) [v]
Mubvumo uyu u bulwa nga milomo i re fhasi na meno a nṱha zwi tshi kwama. Ndi
mubvumo wa labiodental. Nḓila ya kubulelwe ndi ya u thivhela moya nga ndila i sa
valelwi tshoṱhe, ngauralo ndi mubvumo wa fricative. U dovha wa vha mubvumo u
na luambo lwa u vhamba, zwine zwa amba uri ndi voiced fricative.
b) [d]
Uyu ndi mubvumo wa alveolar stop. U bulwa musi luthihi lwa luambo lu tshi kwama
thungo ya meno a nṱha kha alveolar ridge. Nḓila ya kubulelwe ndi ya u vala moya
lwa tshifhinganyana wa bva nga tshifhinganyana, zwine zwa ita uri u vhe stop
kana plosive. Ndi mubvumo u na u vhamba.
c) [ḓ]
yu ndi mubvumo wa retroflex stop. Luambo lu kobama lwa humela murahu lwa
kwama thungo ya palate ya murahu. Nḓila ya kubulelwe i fana na ya [d] ngauri ndi
stop, fhedzi fhethu hune ya bulwa hone ndi ha murahu zwiṱuku u fhira alveolar. Ndi
mubvumo u na u vhamba.
d) [ɸ]
Mubvumo uyu ndi bilabial fricative. U bulwa nga milomo mivhili i tshi sendekana
zwi si u valwa tshoṱhe, zwine zwa bveledza u fhisafhisa ha moya. A u na u vhamba,
ngauralo ndi voiceless fricative.
e) [ß]
Uyu ndi mubvumo wa bilabial fricative sa [ɸ], fhedzi phambano ndi uri uyu u na u
vhamba. Milomo mivhili i sendekana, moya wa fhisa u tshi bva nga vhukuma, fhedzi
hu na u thuthuba ha luambo lwa u vhamba.
