Appendix talk:Swahili pronunciation

Long Vowels?[edit]
I was under the impression that Swahili had long vowels, hence why pumbaa and pumba are spelled differently. I understood that these where allophones (like the long vowels in British English) hence why they are not on the main IPA chart on Wikipedia. However, the pronunciation pages are supposed to list the allophones as well (hence the ɱ). I haven't added the (ː) because I want to make sure that I'm not missing something. -MToumbola (talk) 10:47, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
