+<poem>
+actually just gonna go ahead and say p p' b > f p b (grimm's law with glottalic pie)
+actually p p' b > ph /pʰ/ p b
+that's proto-pfiunic
+actually should pʰ > f?
+that's still elvish
+f p b
+PQuame:
+m n
+p t k kʷ q qʷ ʔ
+b d g gʷ ɢ ɢʷ
+pʼ tʼ kʼ kʷʼ qʼ qʷʼ
+s ł h
+z λ
+c ƛ
+cʼ ƛʼ
+y w
+r l
+But first uvulars disappear:
+actually no
+uvulars don't vanish
+will be kior
+in AW
+uvulars merge with velars
+m n
+p t k kʷ ʔ
+b d g gʷ
+pʼ tʼ kʼ kʷʼ
+s ł h
+z λ
+c ƛ
+cʼ ƛʼ
+y w
+r l
+be- will be cognate to ui- in Naquian and bi- in Themsarian
+does that make Themsarian too Germanic?
+bi- will be an applicative in Themsarian
+then, Grimm's law
+m n
+f þ x xʷ ʔ
+b d g gʷ
+p t k kʷ
+s ł h
+z λ
+c ƛ
+y w
+r l
+Laterals turn into click-type sounds
+m n
+f þ x xʷ ʔ
+b d g gʷ
+p t k kʷ
+s ɧ h
+z đ
+c ŧ
+j w
+r l
+what to do with s z c?
+s > h (like in Talsmic)?
+c > s
+uhh
+actually h should disappear first
+c merges to s
+so should the glottal stop
+causing vowel lenthening
+should i have tones in PPfiun?
+pre-pfiun
+they will trigger verner's law
+So I have
+m n
+b d đ g gʷ
+p t ŧ k kʷ
+f þ ɧ x xʷ
+s z
+r l j w
