Notes

Mali’s DNAFLA 1993 and Niger’s arrêté no 0214/MEN/SPCNRE differ and have slightly different orders. In Mali ʔ ž are used (ə or ǝ as only lowercase is shown in DNAFLA 1993), in Niger â ê ǝ/Ǝ ǧ î ǰ ô û are used.\nThe UDHR translation (Cheikh 2006) uses ə/Ə ñ. DNAFLA 1982 used ʃ ʒ and DNAFLA 1993 uses sh zh instead.
