Varaso

Vowels are often reduced or elided to fit the stress-timing rhythm. For example, /vɐˈrazʊ/ could be pronounced as [vɐˈraˑshʷ] or /ˈreʃart/ as [reʃɹ̥t].   The /ʎ/ sound is delateralised and realised as [ʝ] or [ɟ͡ʝ] in southern dialects (i.e. Scitia, Vándulo, and Trati) and as [ʒ] in Treima (jeísmo).
In southern dialects, /ð/ is realised as [z] (z Tratião).
In some dialects, /β/ has merged into /v/.
Stop consonants which follow a nasal vowel are often prenasalised (Vándulo = [ˈvãˑ.^n̪d̪u.lʊ])
/l/ in a final position (or finally before /ɐ/ or /ʊ/ and not following a labial consonant) or following a velar consonant is velarized to [ɫ] in most dialects (scarél = [ʃkɐˈreɫ], claro [ˈkɫarʊ], and Gisela = [d͡ʒiˈzeɫɐ] but not Fábula = [ˈfaβulɐ]). In the Narrows, this velarised L has become [w] (scarél = [ʃkɐˈrew]).
Ls which fall in the coda of a syllable are velarised in most dialects; in eastern dialects this has become the approximant /w/ (e.g. Alvoradã would be pronounced /awvʊˈradɐ̃/.
/s/, /z/, /ʃ/, and /ʒ/ are neutralised word-finally.
The character of the rhotic sound /r/ varies between dialects, speakers, or even words, variously being , [ɾ], [ɹ], or [ʀ~ʁ], with the last being particularly prominent in far northern Enzim.  

Linguistic Unity

One notable feature of Varaso, especially in comparison to the Dvekmenic languages of neighbouring Sossis, is the fact that, with the exception of the geographically isolated and Cassidian-influenced Dacian, Vallaran remained a single, unified language as it developed into Varaso. This is mostly due to the remarkable political unity of the Varaso-speaking world, which, with the exception of Treima, has been politically united since the Varaso Kingdom through the modern Holy Enzimian Empire, meaning that peoples from various parts of the empire were frequently in contact with each other, preventing the language from diverging to the point of mutual unintelligibility. Some rural dialects likely diverged to the point they could be considered separate languages, but they have few speakers and are poorly studied. As industrialisation, urbanisation, and national language reform and standardisation reduce dialectical differences, many of these rural dialects are likely moribund or extinct.
