Bantoanon Phonology.

The Bantoanon language has borrowed from Spanish and English, as well as from Hiligaynon and Tagalog. Many of the borrowed words have been assimilated into the Bantoanon phonemic patterns. In this paper on Bantoanon phonology, discussion focuses on the phonology of native Bantoanon words and the added phonemic patterns and phonemes resulting from borrowing. Higher level phonology, syllable patterns, the phoneme, and residue (consonant clusters that appear as a result of the incorporation of loan words into the language) are described.
