Notes
- ^ a b c d e f The German lenis consonants [b d ɡ z ʒ dʒ] are often pronounced without voice as [b̥ d̥ ɡ̊ z̥ ʒ̊ d̥ʒ̊]. In Southern German, the voiceless pronunciation prevails.
- ^ a b c d e Pronunciation of /r/ in German varies according to region and speaker. While older prescriptive pronunciation dictionaries only allowed [r], this pronunciation is nowadays mainly found in Switzerland, Bavaria and Austria, while in other regions, the uvular pronunciation prevails, with the allophones [ʁ] and [ʀ]. In many regions except for Switzerland, the /r/ in the syllable coda is vowelized to [ɐ̯] after long vowels or after all vowels, and /ər/ is pronounced as [ɐ]
- ^ Realized as a uvular fricative [χ] after /a/, /aː/, and often /ʊ/, /ɔ/, and /aʊ/.
- ^ In many varieties of German except for Swiss Standard German, all initial vowels are preceded by [ʔ].
- ^ Many German speakers replace [ð] with [z].
- ^ Many German speakers replace [ɹ] with [ʁ].
- ^ Many German speakers replace [w] with [v].
- ^ Many German speakers replace [θ] with [s].
- ^ Often replaced by [eː]
- ^ a b Sometimes replaced by [aŋ].
- ^ a b Sometimes replaced by [ɛŋ].
- ^ a b Sometimes replaced by [ɔŋ].
- ^ a b Sometimes replaced by [œŋ].
- ^ Many German speakers replace [ɔː] with [ɔ] or [oː].
- ^ Many German speakers replace [ʌ] with [a].
