Sifara was the native language of the Tachrani. It was notable in that it had no voiced consonants and sounded like a loud whisper when spoken. Its consonant sounds roughly correspond to the following: * F * G (the Sifara G sounds similar to a K, but the sound comes from the back of the mouth instead of the middle) * H * K * L (Sounds like a cross between H and L, produced by heavy airflow over the back of the tongue and the tip of the tongue touching one's top row of teeth) * N (simply heavy airflow through the nose, much like a harsh nasal H) * P * R (very soft R-like sound) * S * T * Z (the Z is not a voiced S; it is pronounced like S, but with more force and a larger gap between one's lips) * SH
