Phuthi bụ asụsụ Bantu, n'ụzọ doro anya n'ime mpaghara ndịda ọwụwa anyanwụ S (cf. Guthrie 1967 na 1971). Mana n'ime ndịda Afrịka, a na-ele Phuthi anya dị ka asụsụ Nguni ma ọ bụ asụsụ Sothozwana, n'ihi ọkwa dị elu nke ngwakọta gosipụtara na usoro niile nke ụtọ asụsụ (lexicon, phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax).

Mana Phuthi na-ejikọta ya na Zulu, Hlubi, Xhosa, ugwu na ndịda Ndebele, na Swati n'ezie asụsụ Nguni. Ya mere, a ga-agụnye ya na otu S.40 n'ime mpaghara S, na-agbaso nhazi Guthrie.

E nwere ụdaume abụọ superclose, nke a na-ahụkwa n'asụsụ Sesotho. Na orthography Phuthi, a na-egosi ha na circumflex diacritic, ya mere:

1. The second and third vowels in this word Síphùthì are both superclose. In the adapted IPA needed to represent Sesotho vowels, subscript commas are used for transcribing superclose vowels. Such superclose vowels would be represented in the same way in the phonetic transcription of Phuthi (but are given as Templeeti:Angbr in the proposed Phuthi orthography).
2. Basic historical, linguistic and geographical information about Phuthi is found in the Donnelly (1999) reference.
