A whole rime dictionary would be necessary to describe all the rimes, since the rules are so complex/irregular. Sorry

*''io'' /y/? i-umlauts to ''ie'' /i/?
*''ia'' /jæ/ i-umlauts to ''ie'' /i/?
*short ''o'' /o/ i-umlauts to short ''ö'' /e/
*short ''a'' /æ/ i-umlauts to short ''ä'' /e/
*short ''e'' /ə/ i-umlauts to short ''i'' /i/
*''uo'' i-umlauts to ''üö''
*short ''a'' /æ/ u-umlauts to short ''å'' /o/
