-**ø occurs when a (but not ä) is u-umlauted: *taafu > tøøfu
+*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/  and /e/ 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.
+*Nasal vowels merge with nonnasal vowels before m/n/ng/l
+*Final -ng disappears leaving nasalization (as in Skellan)
 *p > f
 *final -g, -w disappear
