* The checked tone ''ʔ'' and ''-m'' codas are maintained. For example, 甘肅 is read as ''Gamsu'' /ka<u>m</u>su/.
* [ts, tsʰ, s] are often palatalized to [tɕ, tɕʰ, ɕ] in front of front high vowels, a feature called ''źiantwanholiuźiantwanholiw'' 尖團合流. It is represented in orthography by placing an acute accent ◌́ over the consonant to indicate its palatalization.
