* /b/ can be heard as a fricative [β] in intervocalic positions.
* /ɳ/ has a limited phonemic distribution, and is typically a realization of /n/ before retroflex sounds.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Pucilowski |first=Anna |title=Topics in Ho (𑢹𑣉𑣉) morphophonology and morphosyntax |publisher=University of Oregon |year=2013}}</ref>
