Notes:
1.
s and sh when before a vowel become h
sl becomes l
str becomes tr
sn becomes n (sometimes)
s and sh followed by any other consonant do not change.
2.
G may be broad or palatal; in the latter case it is usually written
gi, and the lenited form is y,
e.g. giat / yiat, giare / yiare, but the gh spelling is also used,
as ghiat, ghiare.
