Notes
- ^ In Sardinian it is a double voiced retroflex stop, represented by [ɖɖ] or [ɖː].
- ^ Sometimes omitted between vowels.
- ^ Usually, /k/ is written down following either the Italian style (by using ⟨ch⟩: e.g. anchilla, chelu, chena, chi, etc.), the Byzantine style (by using ⟨k⟩: e.g. ankilla, kelu, kena, ki, etc.) or the Spanish style (by using ⟨qu⟩: e.g. anquilla, quelu, quena, qui, etc.)
- ^ a b Nasal consonants always assimilate their place of articulation to that of the following consonant. Thus, the n in /nɡ/~/nk/ is velar [ŋ], but before /v/ or /f/, it is labiodental [ɱ] (transcribed here as [m]). It is [m] only before /p/, /b/ or /m/.
- ^ Glottal stops usually occur for intervocalic /k/ in some dialects of Barbagia, and for intervocalic /l/ and /n/ in some dialects of Sarrabus.
- ^ One of the rare cases in which the grapheme ⟨j⟩ does not represent the sound [ʒ].
- ^ Another rare case, using the grapheme ⟨i⟩, normally representing a full vowel [i].
- ^ Phonetically transcribed as [sarˈdinja], as opposed to Sardìgna in Logudorese, transcribed as [sarˈdiɲɲa]. In Campidanese this semivowel is more usual.
