Note 9 — INTRODUCTION
Reading edition
In post-consonantal position we indicate /ʔ/ with a hyphen, as is done in most Cebuano publications: tan-aw /tanʔaw/ ‘see’. In other positions—that is, intervocalically and in word initial position, glottal stop is not written, as is also the usual practice in Cebuano publications: writing of two adjacent vowels or initial vowel serves to indicate a glottal stop:9 maáyu /maʔā́yu/ ‘good’, alas /ʔalás/ ‘ace’.
