I want to know the answer to the following question:
[p˭ s˭] and [pʰ ʰp sʰ] are separate what?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Unaspirated consonants like [p˭ s˭] and aspirated consonants like [pʰ ʰp sʰ] are separate phonemes, and words are distinguished by whether they have one or the other.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
