shift notes
- /ai ei/ > /e:/, /au eu/ > /9:/, /iu ui/ > /y:/
- /v/ inserted between vowel and /y u 9 o/, or /y u 9 o/ and vowel
- first long vowel in stressless words gets stress
- unstressed short vowels merge as /@/ except every other vowel from the stressed vowel
- unstressed long vowels -> short vowels
- stressed short vowels become long and weaken: /i y e 9 M u o a 7/ -> /I Y E Y @ U O @ @/
- stress disappears
- /t_j d_j s_j/ > /tS dZ S/
- voiceless stops aspirate and voiced consonants devoice word-initially
- /b d g/ > /B D G/ > /w r\` h/, /h_w/ > /f/, /h_j/ > /C/
- /@/ drops unconditionally, geminates devoice, regressive assimilation except liquids (nasals aspirate) and aspirated consonants
- /tr dr sr/ and /rt rd rs/ > /t` d` s`/, /r/ > /z`/
- voiceless stops voice intervocalically (or between liquid and vowel)
- /ph th kh/ > /p_h t_h k_h/
- fricative + /h/ > fricative_h
- /h/ > /x/ after /a 7 M/, /x_w/ after /o u/, /C/ after /i e/, /C_w/ after /y 9/
- properties propagate through consonant clusters, devoicing anything in cluster with affricate
- /@:/ > /I:/ after palatal, /U:/ after labial, /Y:/ after pal+lab
- vowel shift (see vowel shift section)
- diphthongs shorten in syllables with coda consonants
- Iw -> iw
- w before vowel -> v
- rounding transfers from consonants to following vowel, {_w > 9, and disappears from cons.
- insert homorganic (to nasal) stop before nasals+fricatives, or nasals+nonhomorganic stops

grammar notes
- kill productive edibility
- make case prefixes from prepositions with short vowels- they lose vowels + become part of the next word (this is before property spreading! see /to m9/ > /t_hm_j_h/)
sample sentences
ones near the top are probably more accurate, although there are probably mistakes in all of them because I'm doing these by hand in X-SAMPA
