Spirantization
- /pʰ tʰ ŧʰ kʰ qʰ/ > /ɸ θ ʃ x χ/
Radicalization of Uvulars
- /q ʁ χ/ > /ʡ ʕ ħ/
Vowel changes
- Radical-coloring: /e i o u y/ > /a e a o e/ _C[+radical]
- /ēj/ > /ie/
- /oj uj/ > /y/, /ōj ūj/ > /ȳ/ / _C
(De)labialization
- /*çCw/ > /vC/ # V_V
- /w/ > /v/ / otherwise
Contraction/loss of final vowels
- /a e i o u y/ > Ø / _#
- /ā ē ī ō ū ȳ/ > /a e i o u y/ / _#
- /ajV ejV/ (V short) > /ai ei/ _#
- /ēh/ > /ie/ _#
- /ēj, ējh/ > /i/ or /ie/ _#
(Grammaticalization of object/oblique pronouns somewhere around here)

Word-final compensatory lengthening
- /e i o u y ē ī ō ū ȳ/ > /ā ie ā ua ȳ ā ē ā ua ē/ _/ħ ʡ/# and /ħ ʡ/ > Ø _#
- /a e i o u/ > /ā ē ī ō ū/ _h#, h > Ø _#
Medial vowel contraction and loss of /w j h ʔ/
- /*ahu *aju/ > /*au/, /*ahi *aji/ > /*ai/
Miscellaneous coloring
- /*u *ū/ > /*y *ȳ/ _C[+coronal], sometimes when occuring after the downstep
2ndary rhotacization
/z/ > /r/ / _C[+voiced, not /z/]
Tone correspondences
- *-# ʔ: downstep alternates between the internal syllable and the ending
- no *-# ʔ: downstep is fixed
