1: ɵ > e
2: dissimilation: ɔ̯ɐ(:)ɔ̯ɐ > β̞ɐ(:)ɔ̯ɐ
3: monophthongization: ɔ̯ɐ ɔ̯ɐ: > ɔ:, ɐ̃ũ õũ ĩũ > ɔ̃: õ: ũ:
4: postoralization: prevocalic nasals not adjacent to nasal vowels gain an oral offglide
5: stressed and/or long lax vowels become tense
6: ɾ > ɹ
7: uV iV > uwV ijV
8: fl fɹ > hl hɹ
The orthography is then reformed, with the representation of unstressed vowels being regularized, and vowel deletion resulting in compensatory lengthening being marked by an apostrophe.

  1. /hl/ > /ɬ/; /hɹ hj hw/ would become /ɹ̥ ç ʍ/ were they in the sample.
  2. Consonants degeminate, with compensatory lengthening in preceding short stressed vowels (as in both cases here).
  3. Final voiceless stops cease to have an audible release.

After we've decided this has run its course, someone else can do a new phrase; I've already come up with the last two (although one of Otto's was originally done instead of this one).
