Orthography
Samoan has five vowels and thirteen consonants:
| a | e | i | o | u | f | g | h | k | l | m | n | p | r | s | t | v | ʻ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| /a/ | /e/ | /i/ | /o/ | /u/ | /f/ | /ŋ/ | /h/ | /k/ | /l/ | /m/ | /n/ | /p/ | /r/ | /s/ | /t/ | /v/ | /ʔ/ |
Long vowels are signified by a macron: ā, ē, ī, ō, ū.
Some texts may use long vowels without a macron. These spellings are not represented in Wiktionary, since they are predictable.
It is important to note that the glottal stop should be given using a MODIFIER LETTER TURNED COMMA (U+02BB), not a regular apostrophe.
