 My latest chamlang, in the style of Dhannuá being "plausibly Celtic" at first glance, this shall be "plausibly at first glance" a mystical love child of Proto-Greek and Proto-Albanian, avec dashes of ''liquamen''. It is named after the Boeotian word for sweet-voiced, ''ἴδηφιν''.
-==Changes from Proto-Indo-European==
+And now, I've come up with a proper glottonym, woo!
+(ϜΕΠΟΣ) ΧΙΡΑΘΩΝ
+==A Tentative Chronological Order of Sound Change==
+===The elimination of the laryngeals and their effect on nearby vowels===
+====Hoffman's Law====
+Not unlike Cowgill's law in the Germanic branch, there appears to be occasional consonant reflexes of certain laryngeals in Dephinian.
+The sound change, called Hoffman's law (sometimes Hoffman-Cowgill) after Maribel Hoffman's discovery (Hoffman 1988: 201 n. 2) that either Cowgill's law or something very similar to it operates to a certain extent in some Dephinian words albeit with the modification that the reflex is *g and not *k (as in Germanic).
+: PIE *gʷih₃wós > *gʷigwós > *gʷígʷus > Deph βιφος /ˈbipʰos/ (with analogical lowering of the nominative ending vowel, cf. μιρτος /ˈmirtos/ ‘dead’)
+This sound change must predate the change of the labiovelars to labials, as there is no attested **βίυς /biːus/ which would be the regular outcome of a form **bíh₃wós with intervocalic w- and laryngeal deletion.
+====Quinn's Law====
+Quinn's law was first formulated by Nathanel Quinn to explain certain irregularities in the inherited lexicon. It states that /g/ before /h₂/ gave -gʰa- as a result of leftwards aspiration assimilation in the earliest stages of Dephinian. (Quinn 2009: 103 n. 1)
+:PIE *dʰugh₂tḗr > *dugʰatḗr > *dugʰátēr > Deph δυχάτηρ /duˈχɑteːr/ ‘daughter’ instead of expected **δυγατηρ < **dhugátēr.
+===Delabialization of m===
+PIE *yugóm > *yugón
+===Initial jod fortition===
+{{ast}}yugón > *dyugon
+===Loss of word-final stop consonants===
+===Barytonesis===
+{{ast}}dyugon > *dyúgon
+===Merger of labiovelars into labials===
+===Vocalisation of word-final /s/===
+===Raising of /o/ to /u/ between resonants and labials===
+PIE *nókʷt-s > *nópts > *núpts > *nū́ps > Deph νυιψ /nyps/ ‘night’
+===Palatalisation===
+===Debuccalisation of /s/===
+===Depatalisation===
+===Assimilation of /s/ to neighbouring stops===
+==Chronologically unordered list of delicious sound changes==
 ===Misc. changes pilfered from Proto-Albanian and Proto-Greek===
