Notes

  1. ^
    consonant length
    , and double graphemes are normally used for orthographic purposes (e.g. ⟨cc⟩, ⟨gg⟩, ⟨nn⟩, ⟨ss⟩). However, when they do not carry such diacritical use, they represent geminated consonants (usually after stressed /ə/).
  2. ^ a b [dz] and [ts] may also be allophones of /dʒ/ or /z/ and /tʃ/ or /s/ (not between vowels) in south-eastern dialects (Mondovì, Langhe, Val Bormida and high Montferrat).
  3. ^
    ɹ
    ]     in certain southern dialects.
  4. ^
    n/ before a vowel and /ŋ
    /     elsewhere. When it is not the case, ⟨nn⟩ is used for /n/ and ⟨n-⟩ for /ŋ/ to avoid confusion.
  5. ^ ⟨s⟩ is always voiced [z] immediately before a voiced or nasal consonant and, when not doubled, between (semi)vowels or word-finally.
  6. ^ Intervocalic allophone of /j/ in Valsesia.
  7. ^ a b [ʃ] and [ʒ] are, respectively, allophones of /s(j)/ and /z(j)/ or /dʒ/ in north-eastern, high Montferrat, Val Bormida, Canavese and Biellese dialects.
  8. ^ a b c d /ɛ/, /ɔ/ ([æ] in rural dialects), /ø/ and [ɑ] ([ɒ] in south-east dialects) only occur in stressed position, the latter being the most common allophone of /a/ in stressed position.
  9. ^ In some peripheral dialects, it may be realized slightly differently (for example as [ɐ]).
  10. ^ a b Stressed /i/ and /y/ are often realized with a more laxed realisation, [ɪ] and [ʏ], word-finally and before nasal consonants. Before /ŋ/, /i/ is more open [ɛ] in southern Langhe and a diphthong [ɛj] in high Montferrat.
  11. ^ In some dialects, it has a more close pronunciation as [ɔ̝].
  12. ^ In Montferrat and Langhe, /y/ has the allophones [i] and [ej].
