Notes

Some standard orthography characters are commonly substituted with non accented letters or those accessible on keyboards. The velar n̂ (used in Masikoro [mg-msh]) and the palatal n̈ (used in Northern Betsimisaraka [mg-bmm], Tsimihety [mg-xmv]) are substituted with ñ and n. Similary, the vowel of stressed syllable, when marked with grave, is often replaced with what is available on keyboard layouts. The ồ is extremely rare in corpora.
