Line 39:

/xʷ/ to /x/, the lost labialization affects the vowel, rounding or raising vowels.

:Masculine a-stems reformed to all end in -r regardless of final consonant

:Masculine a-stems reformed to all end in -r regardless of final consonant (Known to have happened before /r̩/ > /ɐ/ due to some recorded misspellings)

/r̩/ to /ɐ/ (see rule #1 for "ár")

Line 56:

coda geminates to /ʰC/ when voiceless, to a fricative when voiced, and nasals to /PN/ (/n:/ > /tn/)

:-ðr-/-nn- paradigm leveled to -ðr- throughout

::see Old Norse "annarr" and "mann" (accusative of "maðr") to modern Húsnorsk "adrarą" and "mad" (-nn > -d due to the next change)

:Around the same time as the -ðr-/-nn- leveling, the masculine consonant stems are merged with the masculine a-stems

Diphthong flattening: /au, ɛu, eu, iu, øu, yu, ɔu, ou/ /ɔː, øː, øː, yː, yː, yː, oː, uː/

Line 67:

Line 71:

/sː/ to /ts/ when occupying coda only

<sup>?</sup> /st/ to /s/ after consonants, especially nasals (see "blómstr" to "blómsą")

Word initial /x/ occasionaly strengthens to /k/ when not in a cluster (Unknown why this is inconsistent, though it seems to happen more, but not exclusively, before long vowels)

Line 75:

Line 81:

Devoicing of stops in contact with /s/

splitting of /eː/ into /je/, this isn't a complete sound change, as many speakers still don't display it (see the variation of "réttą" between /reːt.tɐ/ and /rjet.tɐ/)
