The glebst of Gleb

Go. Include seeds -- they're at the bottom of the page.

----

Seed 1141204793:
* A "labiodental-velar lateral", /k͡x͡p͡fˡ/, with such allophones as [q͡χ͡p͡f], [g͡ɣ͡b͡vˡ], and [ʁ].
* Vowels and dorsal obstruents or nasals [k͡p g͡ɣ͡b͡vˡ ŋ͡m̩ ...] persistently assimilate in highness or uvularity to a following one of [k͡p g͡b k g k͡x͡p͡fˡ g͡ɣ͡b͡vˡ ɣ ɣˡ χ ʁ ʟ ŋ͡m̩ ŋ͡ɱ̩ ɲ̩ ŋ̩̟ ŋ̩]. Before an uvular fricative, vowels become ; back vowels become non-back; obstruent laterals become non-lateral; [g͡b ŋ͡m̩ ŋ͡ɱ̩] become [ʁ ɘ̃ ɘ̃]; [g] become [ʁ]; [g͡ɣ͡b͡vˡ] become [ʁ].
* Non-retroflex vowels and palatoalveolar stops or nasals [t͡ʃ d͡ʒ ṉ̩] become front [k̟ g̟ ɲ̩] before a front vowel. Affricates become velar.
* Vowels: /a ã i u ɲ̩ ŋ̩̟/, of which the last two are "Near-high" but placed above the high vowels

Seed 1141860069 gives labial-velar /ŋ͡m k͡p/, which contrast with labial-uvular /ɴ͡m q͡p/. There are also nasal approximants /β̞̃ ɰ̃/, but there's no /ɰ ŋ/. Also: "Non-pharyngeal uvular obstruents or nasals [ɴ͡m̥ ɴʷ̥ qʼ ...] become velar fronted [ŋ͡m̟̥ ŋʷ̟̥ kʼ̟ ...] after a front high vowel. Non-pharyngeal unrounded uvular obstruents or nasals [ɴ͡m̥ ɴ q ...] become velar fronted [ŋ͡m̟̥ ŋ̟ k̟ ...] after a front vowel." But there's no mention of pharyngeality anywhere else.

Seed 1141729651 gives this excellent rule:
[m̥ m̥ m m n̻̥ n̻̥ n̻ n̻ nʷ̻̥ nʷ̻̥ nʷ̻ nʷ̻ ṉ̺̥ ṉ̺̥ ṉ̺ ṉ̺ ṉ̺ʷ̥ ṉ̺ʷ̥ ṉ̺ʷ ṉ̺ʷ pʰ pʰ p p b b ɓ ɓ ɓ̰ ɓ̰ ɗ̻ ɗ̻ ɗ̰̻ ɗ̰̻ ɗʷ̻ ɗʷ̻ ɗ̰ʷ̻ ɗ̰ʷ̻ ɗ̱̺ ɗ̱̺ ɗ̱̺̰ ɗ̱̺̰ ɗ̱̺ʷ ɗ̱̺ʷ ɗ̱̺̰ʷ ɗ̱̺̰ʷ t͡sʰ̻ t͡sʰ̻ t͡s̻ t͡s̻ t͡sʼ̻ t͡sʼ̻ d͡z̻ d͡z̻ t͡sʰʷ̻ t͡sʰʷ̻ t͡sʷ̻ t͡sʷ̻ t͡sʼʷ̻ t͡sʼʷ̻ d͡zʷ̻ d͡zʷ̻ t͡ʃ̺ʰ t͡ʃ̺ʰ t͡ʃ̺ t͡ʃ̺ t͡ʃ̺ʼ t͡ʃ̺ʼ d͡ʒ̺ d͡ʒ̺ t͡ʃ̺ʰʷ t͡ʃ̺ʰʷ t͡ʃ̺ʷ t͡ʃ̺ʷ t͡ʃ̺ʼʷ t͡ʃ̺ʼʷ d͡ʒ̺ʷ d͡ʒ̺ʷ s̻ s̻ z̻ z̻ sʷ̻ sʷ̻ zʷ̻ zʷ̻ ʃ̺ ʃ̺ ʒ̺ ʒ̺ ʃ̺ʷ ʃ̺ʷ ʒ̺ʷ ʒ̺ʷ] assimilate in dorsality and uvularity and palatalisation and whether palatal or palatalised velar to a following obstruent or nasal and become non-dorsal word-finally. Before a velar stop or nasal, non-bilabial obstruents or nasals become non-back non-dorsal. Before a back stop or nasal, laminal obstruents or nasals become apical and assimilate in uvularity; apical obstruents or nasals become laminal and assimilate in uvularity; [ɓ ɓ̰] become non-implosive and assimilate in uvularity; [ɓ̰] become non-glottalised and assimilate in uvularity. Before an uvular stop or nasal, non-bilabial obstruents or nasals become non-back non-dorsal.
Highlighting this almost crashed Chrome.
It also has allophonic labial-velars and labial-uvulars: /sipɴɑ/ [siɢ͡bɴɑ]

Seed 1148414208 has /ʀ̆ʷ/. And two long voiced plosives, which can appear word-finally, but no other gemination.

Seed 1148250458 has a series of pharyngealized velars /ŋˤ kˤ gˤ xˤ/... and then a pharyngealized palatal glide, /ɪ̯ˤ/, which contrasts with /j/. This is actually an interesting feature... but there are no other pharyngeals. Also the vowel system is /a i ɯ u/.

Seed 1149200548: a vowel system of /æ a i/. (Cev, this otherwise looks Siberian; go steal it. Also it has 11 consonants.)

Seed 1147332635: /ʟ̃ʷ/.

There was a rather nice one on Reddit the other day. OP didn't give the seed, though.
I generally forget to say, so if it's relevant and I don't mention it--I'm from Southern Michigan and speak Inland North American English. Yes, I have the Northern Cities Vowel Shift; no, I don't have the cot-caught merger; and it is called pop.

That is an interesting Afro Indic like gleb language. I wonder about the allophones.

gleb /ɡlɛb/ (past tense glob or glebbed) 1. vt to baptize a duck with, while wearing rubber-soled shoes 2. n any of a range of thiocyanates used for said baptism. (From Middle English gleben, loaned from Old Norse gleba, from Proto-Germanic *glebaną, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰlebʰ-, *ǵʰl̥bʰ. Cognate with Ancient Greek κλάφομαι ("I massage with a spatula"), Latin globeō ("I impale lengthwise with a tuning-fork"), and Old Armenian xkʿoy ("I am")).

Syllable structure:

(C1)(C2)(C3)(C4)V

C1: one of /gʷ ʔ ɓ̰ ɠ̰ d͡ʑ f ʃ x ɾ/
C2: a consonant other than an affricate (/t͡sʰ t͡s t͡sʼ d͡z d͡ʑ/) or one of /b d g s/ (/b d g s/)
C3: a consonant other than /ʃ/
C4: one of /gʷ d͡ʑ ɾ/
V: a vowel

seed 1223950889

In seed 1096034691, it gives a phonology with 61 consonants. 38 of them are stops.

seed 1115923172 has a syllabic pharyngealized velar nasal with a length distinction.

1218022923 has creaky-voiced implosives and /hʷ/, and this:
[*]Voiceless glottal fricatives [h hʷ] persistently become non-fricative non-resonant glottal fricatives and assimilate in place of articulation to a following non-labial obstruent.

What on earth is a "non-resonant glottal fricative"?

What the heck is a "non-fricative glottal fricative", I'd rather ask.
The conlanger formerly known as “the conlanger formerly known as Pole, the”.

If we don't study the mistakes of the future we're doomed to repeat them for the first time.

My guess is the intention is to distinguish between genuine fricatives and the more common bare phonation represented by /h/.
