Little is known about the laryngeals '''*Q, *H, *X'''. Some conjectured realizations are:
*'''Q''' = /ʔ/ or /q/
*'''Q''' = /ʔ/ or /q/
*'''H''' = /ʁ/ (causes pharyngealized vowels in [[Æ]])
*'''H''' = /ʁ (???)/ (causes pharyngealized vowels in [[Æ]], but merges into '''F''' in Tseer! It might have been a compressed-rounded vocalized-L-like phoneme.)
*'''X''' = /h/, /x/ or /ç/
*'''X''' = /h/, /x/ or /ç/
The laryngeals may have developed allophones in different environments, leading to conditioned reflexes in daughter lnaguages.
