The diacritics and suprasegmental feature lists also show their corresponding
IPA symbol. This is to avoid duplicating the lists in the IPA chart and Feature

### Diacritics

| Feature | Kirshenbaum | Name |
|---------|-------------|-----------------|
| `asp` | `asp` | aspirated |
| `unx` | `unx` | unexploded |
| `syl` | `syl` | syllabic |
| `mrm` | `mrm` | murmured |
| `vzd` | `vzd` | velarized |
| `lzd` | `lzd` | labialized |
| `pzd` | `pzd` | palatalized |
| `rzd` | `rzd` | rhoticized |
| `nzd` | `nzd` | nasalized |
| `fzd` | `fzd` | pharyngealized |
#### Syllabicity

| Feature | Kirshenbaum | IPA | Name |
|---------|-------------|-----|-----------------|
| `syl` | `syl` | ◌̩ | syllabic |
| `nsy` | | ◌̯ | non-syllabic |

#### Consonant Release

| Feature | Kirshenbaum | IPA | Name |
|---------|-------------|-----|-----------------|
| `asp` | `asp` | ◌ʰ | aspirated |
| `nrs` | | ◌ⁿ | nasal release |
| `lrs` | | ◌ˡ | lateral release |
| `unx` | `unx` | ◌̚ | no audible release (unexploded) |

__NOTE:__ The `nrs` and `lrs` features are not defined in Cainteoir Text-to-Speech.

#### Phonation

| Feature | Kirshenbaum | IPA | Name |
|---------|-------------|-----|-----------------|
| `vlv` | | ◌̥ | voiceless |
| `vcv` | | ◌̬ | voiced |
| `mrm` | | ◌̤ | breathy voiced (murmured) |
| `crv` | | ◌̰ | creaky voiced |

__NOTE:__ The `vlv` and `vcv` diacritics may be used to fill in spaces within
the IPA charts, or to make a distinction between *fortis* and *lenis* consonants.
Cainteoir Text-to-Speech uses `slv` (slack voice) and `stv` (stiff voice) for
these features instead.

#### Articulation

| Feature | Kirshenbaum | IPA | Name |
|---------|-------------|-----|-----------------|
| `dzd` | | ◌̪ | dental |
| `apc` | | ◌̺ | apical |
| `lmn` | | ◌̻ | laminal |
| `lgl` | | ◌̼ | linguolabial |
| `adv` | | ◌̟ | advanced |
| `ret` | | ◌̠ | retracted |
| `czd` | | ◌̈ | centralized |
| `mcz` | | ◌̽ | mid-centralized |
| `rsd` | | ◌̝ | raised |
| `lwr` | | ◌̞ | lowered |

#### Co-articulation

| Feature | Kirshenbaum | IPA | Name |
|---------|-------------|-----|-----------------|
| `mrd` | | ◌̹ | more rounded |
| `lrd` | | ◌̜ | less rounded |
| `lzd` | `lzd` | ◌ʷ | labialized or labio-velarized |
| `pzd` | `pzd` | ◌ʲ | palatalized |
| `vzd` | `vzd` | ◌ˠ | velarized |
| `fzd` | `fzd` | ◌ˤ | pharyngealized |
| `vfz` | | ◌̴ | velarized or pharyngealized |
| `atr` | | ◌̘ | advanced tongue root |
| `rtr` | | ◌̙ | retracted tongue root |
| `nzd` | `nzd` | ◌̃ | nasalized |
| `rzd` | `rzd` | ◌˞ | rhoticized |

__NOTE:__ The `fzd` and `vfz` features have the same linguistic effect. They
are used to differentiate the listed IPA diacritics.

##### Precomposed Characters

These characters are represented as a single Unicode character. They can be
used in place of the base character followed by a co-articulation combining
character.

| Symbol | Features |
|--------|-------------------------------|
| ɫ | `vcd` `vfz` `alv` `lat` `apr` |
| ɚ | `unr` `mid` `cnt` `rzd` `vwl` |
| ɝ | `unr` `lmd` `cnt` `rzd` `vwl` |
