Instant Phonetic Assumptions:  

We assume that Lolly’s version of the word would also have a glottal stop [ ʔ ], which we do not write phonetically, because we do not hear it from Lolly, and we assume that Annie’s version of the word would have a very short Schwa [ ᵊ ] after the first consonant, which we actually do write phonetically because of something that we hear from Lolly where Jacobs wrote | kʼál·a |, with the apostrophe after the k, not on top, which we modernize to be: | kʔál·a |.
