Some languages allow a sonority " plateau "; that is, two adjacent tautosyllabic consonants with the same sonority level.
2.
This is not the case in the neighbouring dialect of Weert, where the short monophthong-glide combinations may be followed by a tautosyllabic consonant.

Note that tautosyllabic stressed behaves like a long vowel in terms of the tones it can bear, and in fact it is notated as such in the tonemic writing system ( see below ).

In all five of the southeastern Bantu languages named, the murmured stops ( even if they are realised phonetically as devoiced aspirates ) have a marked tone-lowering ( or tone-depressing ) effect on the following tautosyllabic vowels.
5.
In some varieties of English, this occurs in particular before and ( in coda ( that is, followed by a consonant or at the end of a word ); it also occurs, to a lesser extent, before tautosyllabic.
