↑As in most Northern Italian languages, nasals do not assimilate their place of articulation to that of the following consonant, differently from what happens in standard Italian. In Venetian, [ŋ] (in Italian only occurring in /nɡ/, /nk/) is used in all nasal plus consonant clusters: e.g. canpo[ˈkaŋpo], cantoṅ[kaŋˈtoŋ].
↑The phoneme /r/ in Venetian is almost always an alveolar flap, but for some it may be retroflex [ɽ].
