voiceless plosives > voiceless fricatives ([p],[t],[k], [kw] > [f],
[T],[x],[xw])

[k], [kw])
voiceless fricatives > voiceless affricates ([f],[s] > [pf], [ts])
voiced fricatives > voiceless fricatives ([v], [z] > [f], [s])
[j] > 0
reduction of short vowels
([a] > [&]
[o],[e] > [@]
[u],[i] > [i\])
2.
[x], [xw] > [h], [hw]
shortening of long vowels
[a:] > [a]
[e:] > [e]
[i:] > [i]
[o:] > [o]
[u:] > [u]
3.
h+voiced liquid/glide > voiceless liquid/glide
[hw] > [w_0]
[hl] > [l_0]
[hr] > [r_0]
diphthongs monophthongize, lowering midvowels
[ai] > [e]
[au] > [o]
[e] > [&]
[o] > [A]
grammatical suffixation of prepositions
