Most letters (including ''ä'', ''ö'', ''ü'', and ''õ'') denote the same sounds as in Estonian, with a few exceptions. The letter ''q'' stands for the [[glottal stop]] {{IPA|/ʔ/}} and ''y'' denotes {{IPAslink|ɨ}}, a vowel very close to [[Russian language|Russian]] ''[[Yery|ы]]'' (from 2005 written ''õ'').

[[Palatalization (phonetics)|Palatalization]] of consonants is marked with an [[acute accent]] (´) or [[apostrophe]] (ʼ). In proper typography and in handwriting, the palatalization mark does not extend above the [[cap height]] (except uppercase letters ''Ń'', ''Ŕ'', ''Ś'', ''V́'' etc.), and it is written above the letter if the letter has no [[Ascender (typography)|ascender]] (''ǵ'', ''ḿ'', ''ń'', ''ṕ'', ''ŕ'', ''ś'', ''v́'' etc.) but written to the right of it otherwise (''bʼ'', ''dʼ'', ''fʼ'', ''hʼ'', ''kʼ'', ''lʼ'', ''tʼ''). In some sources, an apostrophe is placed after the letter in all cases.
