Changes from Proto-Suvo-Poshumic to Proto Suvonic are set in stone; Proto-Hapruic changes are still new.
mb nd ŋg nğ > b d g ğ / #_
y > ∅ / {q ɢ}_
z > s
rw > {#,C}_urw
Vr > V: / _C
r > l
ŋ > ∅
{i ə} y > u w / _(C)w -- no effect _CCw
ə > ∅ / VC_#
əl ər > al ar
ə > a / _ħ
ə > i
ɰ > h
h > :∅ / V_
h > ∅
ħ > h
Vowels in hiatus merge:
ai ui ia > ay uy ya
au iu ua > aw iw wa
All instances of /ɢ/ are elided.
Before and after /u w/, /k g/ are adopted as /kʷ gʷ/. This means that in Proto-Suvonic, only /kʷ gʷ/ will occur before or after /u/, but /k g/ and /kʷ gʷ/ can each occur before any of /a e i o ə/. At the end of a word, however, /kʷ gʷ/ only ever follow /o u/.
w > ∅ / C_
Voiceless stops followed by fricatives assimilate to the same manner of articulation and become fricatives themselves (with /k q/ both -> /χ/), e.g. *atfa > *asfa or *aqsa > *axsa (which will > *ahsa).
After a vowel, /h/ is deleted with compensatory lengthening, resulting in the following vowel correspondances in general (except before /χ q/, see below):
āh, ah > aa/ā > a > ə
ūh, uh > uu
ūw, īw, uw, iw > uu/ū > u > o
īh, ih > ii
īy, ūy, iy, uy > ii/ī > i > e
āy, ayh, āyh > ee
ay > e
āw, awh, āwh > oo
aw > o
Note: The rule for deleting /h/ and etc does mean all instances after a vowel, so a word such as *mawa would become *moə, and *māwa > mooə, *mīa > miə, *māyha > *meeə, *mihu > meeo.
Before /j/, stops /p t k b d g/ become geminate. Remaining /j w/ are then elided.
Between two vowels or between a sonorant /m n l j w/ and a vowel, the following chain shift occurs:
sx, sh, sf, sɬ, > ss > s > h > ∅
/ɬ/ becomes /s/.
/t͡s/ becomes /t/ word-initially, /s/ between two vowels, and is re-analyzed as a cluster /ts/ at the end of a word.
Before uvulars /χ q/, the following vowel shifts occur (on already-shifted consonants as above):
uu > oo
ii > ee
u > o
i > e
Between two vowels, non-geminate /ʔ/ is elided. (Geminate /ʔʔ/ becomes ungeminate to fill space).
In word-initial /χt/ clusters, /χ/ assimilates to /s/. Remaining instances of /χ/ become /h/. /ɴ/ is preserved as a new phoneme. New instances of /h/ at the edges of a consonant cluster (hka, anh) are deleted.
/q/ then merges with /ʔ/.
Vowels in hiatus after a long vowel are elided (e.g. pəsuui > pəsuu)
After this, assimilation typical of Proto-Suvonic occurs (e.g. pt > tt, mt > nt) and we're good I think.
