They are divided into 20 phonemes consonant; /p/, /b/, /t/, /d/, /č/, /ǰ/, /k/, /g/, /?/, /s/, /h/, /m/, /n/, /ῆ/, /ŋ/, /r/, /l/, /w/, /ɰ/, and  /y/, 6 phonemes vowel; /a/, /i/, /u, /e/, /o/, and /ǝ/, and 5 diphthongs; /Ia/, /ay/, /aw,  /ua/, and /uy/. Moreover, the distributions of consonant, vowel, and diphthong sounds have variant distribution. Some of the consonant and the vowel have complete distribution, but all diphthongs are incomplete distribution. It is different from standard Minangakbaunese, which has 32 phonemes; 20 consonants, 5 vowels, and 7 diphthongs. The result shows that there are differences of them. It is because Indropuro dialect is not fully the same with standard Minangkabaunese even though they are in the same langauge.
