identically to the English language but it is spoken differently. Mudbura language has 3 vowels: a, i and u. Letter a is pronounced like the vowel in “father”, in English. Letter i sounds like the vowel in “bit” and u is pronounced like the vowel in “put”, in English. Vowel combinations that produce different sounds are: “aw”, “ay”, “iyi”, “uwu”, “uwa”, “uwi”. The consonats that are pronounced sometimes differently than in English are: b, d, k, j and the rest sound similarly to the English consonants. Consonant combinations include: “rd”, “rn”, “rl”, “ng”, “ny”, “ly”, “rr”. The sound “rd” is unique in the way that it resembles the sound of rolling the r combined with d.

There are 5 different conjugations that these inflecting verbs fall under, and each comes with different groups of endings. Example of Conjugation Group 1A: Imperative: wanjarra (leave it!) Past: wanjana (left it) Present: wanjanini (leaves it) Potential: wanjarru (will leave it) Example of Conjugation Group 1B: Imperative: warnda (get it!) Past: warndana (got it) Present: warndanini (gets it) Potential: warndu (will get it) Example of Conjugation Group 2A: Imperative: yinba (sing it!)
