+Like Windermere, Tseer merged *H and *F (into **φ), believed by some to be a shared innovation characterizing "Talmo-Lakovic" (Naengic and Tseer). But unlike Windermere it vocalized some laryngeals in clusters, namely *Q, *H, *F but not *X. It also merged PLak *a and *ā into /a/.
 Vocalized *f, vowels which were colored by *f, and u-umlaut of /a/  and /e/ are the main sources of /ø/ in Tseer.
