- Coronal clicks are retroflex.
- The "aerated" series technically requires a release resembling nasal release but along a different physiological feature (no direct human counterpart).
Something loglangish
/ i e ə a o u/
/ m n ŋ w ð̞ j r l θ ʃ x k/
[t] is entirely epenthetic (tho /ð/ in many ways fills its phonemic place):
- /r l/ → [tr tl] / {# n}_
- /θ ʃ/ → [tθ tʃ] / {# n x}_
- /θ ʃ/ → [(t)θ (t)ʃ] / _{k x} (free variation)
- /lr/ → [ltr]
- /rl/ → [rtl ~ rl] (free variation)
/x/ → [h ~ ɦ] after /N k ð/ (see next!) & initially
Allophonic voiced stops:
- /k/ → [ɡ ~ ɠ] / V_{V N r l h}, {r l}_
- /ð/ → [d ~ ɗ] / V_{N h}, {r l ʃ}_
This furthermore neutralizes to [ɟ ~ ʄ] before /i/.
Onset cluster: /kr/ Long medial clusters: /nðr nðl/
Unoccurring medial clusters:
- Non-homorganic nasal+obstruent; /nm nŋ mn mŋ/; /ŋð/?
- /ðð/, geminate obstruents
- /xð xk θʃ ʃθ/
- /ðθ ðʃ/
- undecided on /ðk kð/ (what to make of these phonetically?), anything involving semivowels

+ other sonorants as needed
- affricate POAs partially allophonic with each other / t k?
- aspirates → f θ ʂ ʃ x
- θ ʂ → f x
- F → V
- ejectivs → pf x tʃ
Aspiration in clusters (example):
| btʃ | btʃʰ | → | ptʃ | ftʃ |
| d̪tʃ | d̪tʃʰ | → | tʃː | ɬtʃ |
| ɖtʃ | ɖtʃʰ | → | rtʃː | xtʃ |
| ɡtʃ | ɡtʃʰ | → | ktʃ |

For West Persian'
A)
- I(: j w) > e(: j w)
- U(j) > i(:)
- U: > u:
- ew (Iw) > o:
- &(: j w), A:, ow ==
- & > a > A
- 6 > &
- result: i e & A, i: u:, e: ej o: ow, &: &j A: (needs u o?)
B)
- I(:), U(:) > @ > a
- e(: j) > i
- Uj > oj > (w)i
- ew > u
- ow > (w)u
- &(: j), 6 > e
- &w, A: > o > (w)a
- result: i e a u + labiovelars/uvulars
To be allocated
Difthong allophony/split: [au eu iu ~ ao eo io] (perhaps [ei ai ou ~ eː ae oː], [iː eː oː uː ~ ie ea oa uo])
(last part looks a bit too Samic)
Orthographics
"Sumerian" diphonic faux-syllabary
With underspecification:
- /tæmæ/ = TFV-L̃V-mFV-LV
- /diːzə/ = TFV-HVFC-SMV
Ie. front/backness coded on "initial"; height coded on "coda"; will look like a vertical vowel system on first glance
morf
English needs more umlaut derivativs
