/rn/ is usually realized as a prestopped nasal [dn̩], while the allophone [ɳ] only occurs in words like baren ([bɑːɳ])[4] "the bar".^[5]^[b]
/rl/ also has a prestopped realization [dl].^[5]
The phoneme which is commonly called thick L (written /ɽ/ in
Vang, /ɽ/ occurs only in the first case.^[7]

The consonant clusters ⟨sk⟩, ⟨skj⟩, and ⟨sj⟩ were not pronounced as [ʂ], only ⟨-rs-⟩ was.^[8] Sørbygdi in Flå pronounces ⟨sj⟩ as [ʂ], while Gulsvik pronounces it as [ʂj].^[9]
The consonant clusters ⟨sl⟩ and ⟨tl⟩ were mostly assimilated to [sl]. Hol and Ål assimilated these to [l̥],^[10]^[11] and Sørbygdi in Flå assimilated ⟨sl⟩ to [ʂl].^[9]
The clusters ⟨-ld⟩, ⟨-nd⟩ and ⟨-mb⟩ are pronounced as spelled.^[12]^[13]^[14]
