View source for Proto Faraneit to Classical Faraneit Sound and Morphological Changes

A number of changes both phonological and morphological distinguish Classical [[Faraneit]] from [[Proto-Rajo-Faraneit]]. Most markedly, the language expanded its voicing distinctions, regularized its vowel system, simplified its internal clusters, and moved from a near isolating structure to a much more aglutinative manner of operating.

==Phonological Changes==
*Vowels:
**/ɑi ɑu/ > /ɛ ɔ/
**/æi æu/ > /ɛ ɔ/
**/ɛi ei/ > /e i/
**/ou/ > /u/
**/ɑ/ becomes [ə], then is deleted.
**/æ/ becomes /a/
**Stress shift makes unstressed previously-allophonic [ɪ ʊ] phonetic.
*Approximants:
**/ɻ/ > /ɹ/
**/r ɹ/ merge into /r/
**/r/ > /ʀ/
**Terminal /l ɭ/ merge into [ɬ] which then becomes /ɭ/
*Clusters:
**/ts ʦ tθ tθ) pf pf) bv bv)/ > /ʦ tθ) pf) bv)/
**/ds sd sb bs/ > /z/
**/df fd fb/ > /v/
**/tx xt dx xd/ > /ç/
**/kx xk sk ks/ > /x/
**Stop1 + Stop2 > Stop1
**Any other combination - the phoneme with greater sonority is preserved
*Other Consonants:
**Affricates fricate.
**Medial /s f θ/ > /z v/ and [ð]
**/xi/ ([çi] or medially [ɟi]) > /ç/, /i/ on preserved when stressed
**Initial /si/ > /ç/, /i/ only preserved when stressed
**Medial /si/ > /ʒ/, /i/ only preserved when stressed
**Terminal /θ/ deleted.

==Morphological Changes==
*Verbal particles shift to follow verbs, eventually affixing. Previously tense and aspect markers become regularized while person markers are not. Originally, secondary verbs were required to agree with the main verb, but this rule was erased after differing tenses allowed speakers to show the movement of time in the actions.
*The word order also became much more regularized. To avoid confusion when both the subject and object were both in third person, a strictly enforced SO pattern evolved. Occasional SVO sentences remained but VSO predominated increasingly.
*A class of commonly used adjectives irregularly nasalize their endings, thereby merging the animate (/on/), and inanimate (/om/) markers. Regular adjectives follow suit and fossilize in the inanimate form. The previously mentioned irregular class then shifted to using either -/ɛ~/ or dialectically -/ɪ~/. Each became standard for several of this class of adjectives. They eventually became interpreted as -/ɛn/ or -/ɪn/ depending on the particular adjective.
*An original possessive preposition, /ɛɑ/, later /ɛ/, becomes cemented between first the possessed object and finally the possesor or pronominal adjective.
*Parrallel to this, the conjunction, /i/, later /ɪ/, became cemented between listed nouns. The word later fell out of other uses, due to confusion with /iɑ/, later /i/, meaning nearby, while the originally phrasial conjunction, /ɑfdiɻ/, later /vir/, meaning additionally, became adopted for other uses of "and".
