Like Windermere, it favored the CCVC ablaut grade of Proto-Lakovic roots, though not as strongly as Windermere.

~~==Diachronics==~~

~~Unlike Windermere, Tseer vocalized some laryngeals in clusters, namely *Q and *f. Vocalized *f, vowels which were colored by *f, and u-umlaut of /a o/ are the main sources of /ø/ in Tseer.~~

~~The laryngeals *X ("far laryngeal") and *H ("near laryngeal") produced breathy vowels, which eventually became nasal vowels.~~

*''ð'' is pronounced [ɣ] in conservative accents. Usually it disappears and causes compensatory lengthening of the previous vowel.

*Unstressed nasal vowels > syllabic nasals: oozhad > nzhad

*Modern Tseer ''~~lost~~'' ~~Classical Tseer stress~~.

*Modern Tseer has consistent stress on the last ''orthographic'' syllable.

**The feminine ending ''-kh'' is usually pronounced [-əx] or even vocalized to [-ə] after a voiced consonant.
