a e i o u -> a ʲa ʲɨ a ɨ
a e i o u -> a ʲa ʲɨ a ɨ


Seargais vowels:
changes from proto seargais to seargais
non-breathy voiced a: e: i: o: u: æ: ø: y: -> ua y w u au ia e aw
high vowels move one POA
breathy voiced a: e: i: o: u: æ: ø: y: ->  
(u -> ü, ü -> i but aü stays put)
i w e au o a ai e
there's the merger
now o becomes u to fill in the gap, a becomes o and æ becomes a
a e i o u æ ø y ->
o e i u y a ø i
e -> ə
which triggers i -> ia, ia -> e, y -> i, u -> ɨ, o -> u, a -> ua, ua -> o
so i get
a e i o u æ ø y ia ua ai au ay ->
o e i u y a ø i ia ua ai au ay ->
u ə ia ɨ i ua _ ia e o ai au _
ø -> ɛ -> a while ay -> aɨ
u ə ia ɨ i ua a ia e o ai au aɨ (i now have all the vowels!)
breathy voice ablaut patterns:
e/i/ai -> ə/ia/ai
o/u/au -> ɨ/i/au
ö/ü/aü -> a/ia/aɨ
chaotic!


spelling: a e i o u y w = /a e i o u ə ɨ/
spelling: a e i o u y w = /a e i o u ə ɨ/
