charts. Thus, when ◌̥ is used with a `vcd` consonant that does not have an
equivalent `vls` consonant, the resulting consonant is `vls`, not `slv`.

The `unr` and `rnd` features are used for vowels to describe their default
labialization. Consonants are `unr` by default, and can use the ◌ʷ, ◌ᶣ and ◌ᵝ
annotations to specify the type of labialization. Vowels can use these to
change their labialization from the default one specified by `rnd`.
Additionally, the degree of rounding/labialization can be specified using the
following features:
