1 When the letter "w" is found either between a consonant and a vowel or at the start of a word, it is pronounced in a breathy or semi-voiced way (basically, closer to f), whilst pronounced like a v wherever else. Compare Wat or Waat (Vat and What respectively) and Schłorwö with Baliw (believe). In cases where the letter w is pronounced v, it can be replaced by a v (Baliw and Baliv are both accepted).
2 If the r precedes or succeeds a consonant, it is pronounced like a tap/flap (like in irl Spanish when it is non-initial or not spelled rr, see the spanish word Árbol (tree)), else it is pronounced trilled (as in irl Spanish Rosa or Arroz), compare Schłorwö with Rot or Schiłwar (Rot and Silver respectively).
3 Farun (English) words written ng or pronounced like such become m. Gerunds like Doing or Saying become Doim and Sayim.
4 The L has two forms, when initially or finally it is pronounced like a normal l, but otherwise it is pronounced like a w and written ł.
