“ In other places in the Isles these sounds appear only sporadically in a few old words.
γ: spirant (“soft”) g as in Danish “dage”.
χ: open spirant k, as in Danish “magt”, = ch in Scottish “loch”.
ŋ: nasal sound of the palatal class (written ng, as in Danish “gang”) .
ɯ: labial sound, a middle sound between m and w — m pronounced with the lips not quite closed.
A ‘ denotes a breath before a stop (p, t, k) . — ‘l, ‘ᶅ, ‘m, ‘n, ‘ᶇ, ‘ŋ, ‘r denote voiceless l, ᶅ, m, n, ᶇ, ŋ, r.
An additional dot denotes that the accent is put on the syllable after which it is placed, e.g. ”

“ With variation of stress in the same word, e.g. bar·klâ· and barklâ· (written bar-claw) . — Two dots and a single dot respectively denote main stress and secondary stress on the preceding syllable, e.g. bār··dasȯg·a, fær··dimɛt· (fār··dimɛt·, -met·) , with main stress on the first, and secondary stress on the third syllable (written bardasoga, ferdimet) . Conversely, e.g. in dun·lop·· (written doon-lop, -lup) with main stress on the second, and secondary stress on the first syllable. ”

“ On Westside, in the neighbourhood of Sandness more open, between æ and ä = a in southern English “bat”.
ä: a sound between æ and a, almost as in English “man, hat”, but generally approaches somewhat to the ȯ-sound; see below ꜵ̈.
a: as in Danish; sometimes approaches ä, especially before a softened consonant, = the vowel in English “far”.
â: a long, deep, diphthongal a-sound, deep a with suggestion of å; approaches the Færoese diphthong åa. ”
