Re: New Conlang: Emegali Phonology

Thank you for your assistance. Here it is:
Sumerian/Emegali Phonology (my version, anyway):
Stops: p, b, t, d, k, g
Nasals: m, n, ng'[N]
Fricatives: f, s, z, x [x]
Sibilants: s, z, sh [S]
Glides: w, y (derived from Emegali phonetic processes, _not_ inherited from
Proto-Semitic or Archaic Egyptian)
Proto-Semitic > Emegali
p>p
b>b
D>z
T>sh
T<emph> > sh
d>d
t>t
sh>sh
z>z
s>s
s<emph> > sh
l>l
s'>sh
s'<emph> >sh
g>g
k>k
q>g
G>0 (nothing)
h_>x
?`>0
h-bar >x
? >0
h>0
m>m
n>n
r>r
w>f
y>0 (although it reappears)
a>a
i>i
u>u
V^=long vowel
a^>a^
i^>i^
u^>u^
ai>e
a^i>e^
Egyptian > Emegali
p>p
b>b
d>d
t>t
sh>sh
z>z (this is an archaic Egyptian consonant)
s>s
g>g
k>k
q>g
h_>x
x>x
C>s
m>m
n>n
r>r
w>f
f>f
The vowels are the same as from Proto-Semitic
