This article is about the phonology and phonetics of the West Frisian language.
The vowel inventory of West Frisian is very rich.
Some falling diphthongs alternate with the rising ones:
Word-final /b, d/ are realized as voiceless [p, t] in all dialects except Amelansk. Note, however, that final /b/ is rare, and that in loanwords from Standard Dutch, final /ɣ/ can also appear, and is also devoiced to [x].
