Assimilatory behavior of the glottal stop

[k̟ɨk̟hˈt:ɑːˀgɒɐ̯ɲʄə]
yxṭā́’goagnje
'act of vandalism, instance of sabotage, graffito, meme'

Glottalization before voiced plosives becomes implosives.

[k̟ɨk̟hˈt:ɑːɠɒɐ̯ɲʄə]
yxṭā́’goagnje
'act of vandalism, instance of sabotage, graffito, meme'

Chain shift: Fronted velars → Palatals → Alveolar affricates

[t͡ɕɨt͡ɕhˈtːɑːɠɒɐ̯nɗ͡zə]

Loss of consonant length

Nasalisation spreads

Offglide affectation

[t͡ɕɨt͡ɕhˈtɑːɠoɐ̯ɲ.ɲə]
kykhttâgaanje
'act of vandalism, instance of sabotage, graffito, meme; civil unrest, riot'

Depalatalization of non-geminate palatal(ized) consonants before non-front vowels.

[t͡sɨt͡ɕhˈtɑːɠoɐ̯ɲ.ɲə]
kykhttâgaanje
'act of vandalism, instance of sabotage, graffito, meme; civil unrest, riot'

Loss of *h

[t͡sɨt͡ɕˈtɑːɠoɐ̯ɲ.ɲə]
kykhttâgaanje
'act of vandalism, instance of sabotage, graffito, meme; civil unrest, riot'

Progressive assimilation of palatal(ization) with fronting of the next vowel.

[t͡sɨt͡ɕˈtʲæːɠoɐ̯ɲ.ɲe̞]
kykhttâgaanje
'act of vandalism, instance of sabotage, graffito, meme; civil unrest, riot'

Codas lost

[t͡sɨˈtʲæːɠoɐ̯.ɲe̞]
kykhttâgaanje
'act of vandalism, instance of sabotage, graffito, meme; civil unrest, riot'

Interference from a dialect in which codas were not lost results in gemination where there had been a coda plosive.

Must you? As Travis has already noted it is bothersome when it is a) overused and b) deliberately tweaking his nose.

foxcatdog, lateralization in natlangs when it does not involve a rhotic, which is relatively common, or, less commonly, a semivowel or offglide (cf. dialectal English "bolth") or nasal is very rare, yet you frequently like to arbitrarily turn sibilants into laterals, which is far rarer than how you like to invoke it (as opposed to the changing of voiceless lateral fricatives to voiceless non-lateral fricatives, e.g. in much of Semitic, which is much more common). Just please cut it out, really.

Vowel chain shift:

Geminate plosives degeminate

Palatalized alveolar plosives assibilate.

[t͡θɨˈt͡ɕiɛ̯ɠoːɲi]
tzîtíegōni
‘instance of sabotage, civil unrest, riot’

Deaffrication

[θɨˈɕiɛ̯ɠoːɲi]
tzîtíegōni
