I really like voiceless nonsibilants, especially the palatal and alveolar ones, and also Shona's /s͡ɸ/.

Maybe a giant ancient inland sea that was covered over then collapsed? It's pretty implausible.

Quantumese with no digraphs.

Sorry it's on Google Drive, the default font here plays horribly with multiple diacritics. Also, your sample doesn't have any nasal vowels for whatever reason.

It used to be height harmony: e a o vs. i ɨ u, plus length. (ɨ was probably more like schwa.) Then there was a vowel shift: short /a e o u/ fronted to /æ ɪ ø ʏ/. Then ɨ ɨː u: lowered, probably through an intermediate diphthong step for the long vowels: ɨ ɨɑ̯: uɒ̯:. ɨ ɨɑ̯ > ɜ ɑ:, uɒ̯: monophthongize...

They're basically (from my attempts at pronouncing them) just long implosives. I don't think that is very sound evidence you have there. I don't know.

Sorry for the low quality.

Would voiceless nasals :> nasalized voiceless fricatives and voiced nasals :> denasals :> implosives be at all plausible? Voicedless nasals > nasalzed voiceless fricatives seems fine to me. But what are "denasals"? Do you mean prenasalized stops? If yes, that is not implausible, but probably restri...

I've used "whyd's" and "whered's" as contractions of "why does" and "where does" before.

as "She did n't steal my purse", there was no purse-stealing whatsoever; I disagree strongly that this sentence implies there was no stealing. Really? What would you consider it to imply, then? Giving a negative auxiliary greater stress generally seems to indicate contradiction (ie. you claimed tha...

...in negative statements, at least? Take the sentence, "She didn't steal my purse": if stressed as " She didn't steal my purse", the implied meaning is that it was not her but someone else who stole the purse; as "She did n't steal my purse", there was no purse-stealing whatsoever; as "She didn't s...

But anyways, all spelling oddities are for stylistic purposes.

So is <∀> /ɶ̈/, or /ɐ̹/? I'm confused. Also, "rounded central /ø/" (despite the fact that /ø/ is already rounded) is /ɵ/.

I'm confused to as what <∀> and <ᴀ> are supposed to be representing here, as they're certainly not IPA. Could you be meaning <ɐ> and <ɑ>, respectively?
