===Vowels===
Proto-Lakovic had register tone:


{| border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="bluetable lightbluebg" style="text-align:center;"
'''i ü u e o a''' = /i y u e o a/

Breathy voice/low tone vowels are spelled with a grave accent: à è ì ò ù ǜ > Wdm. a ea ie oa ua üe
 
Maybe Tsrovesh gets extra consonants and Windermere gets extra vowels. Figure out how to get Literalirish.
 
Explain frequency of Tíogallish clusters in Terg and Windermere.


Get vowel length in Terg. Laryngeals?
'''ì ǜ ù è ò à''' = low/breathy vowels
