Emegali Dialects

I notice while retrieved my posted comments on Emegali that the 
various outcomes of V + glide in a closed syllable has created 
dialects. So here they are:
Original combinations:
ai
au 
iy 
iw 
uy 
uw
Dialect 1:
e:
o:
e:
e: 
o: 
o:
Dialect 2 (my current favorite):
e:
o:
i:
i\:
i\:
u:
Dialect 3:
e:
o: 
i: 
i?
u?
u:
Dialect 4:
a?
a?
i?
i?
u?
u?
Thus the pattern iSkun, taSkun for these dialects would be, with the 
root y-m-y `speak'
1: e:mo:, te:mo:
2: I:mi\:, te:mi\:
3: I:mu?, te:mu?
4: I?mu?, ta?mu?
