  • affricate POAs partially allophonic with each other / t k?
  • aspirates → f θ ʂ ʃ x
  • θ ʂ → f x
  • F → V
  • ejectivs → pf x tʃ

Aspiration in clusters (example):

ɖtʃ ɖtʃʰ → rtʃː xtʃ
ɡtʃ ɡtʃʰ → ktʃ

Note /v tʃ ʒ/ rather than reconstructed *bv *c *ɟ!

For East Persian'

A)

  • ɪː/j/w → eː/j/w
  • e → ɪ
    • → ɨ
  • ʊ(j) → i(ː)
  • ʊː → uː
  • ew (ɪw) → oː
  • æː/j, ej, ow ==
  • æ → a → ɑ
  • æw → ɑw
  • ɒː → ɑː
  • ɐ → æ

B)

  • e(ː j) → i
  • ew → u

  • æ(ː j), ɐ → e
  • æw, ɒː → o → (w)a
  • result: i e a u + labiovelars/uvulars

Shared:

  • ew æw → back vowels, ʊj → i
  • centering/lo'ering of ɪ
  • fronting of ɐ

Plain/palatalized/retracted

Draft the 1st:

m n nʲ ɳ
p t̪ ~ -θ- ts tsʲ ʈʂ k kʲ q
b d̪ ~ -ð- dz dzʲ ɖʐ g gʲ ɢ
v s sʲ ʂ x xʲ χ
l lʲ ʈʂʼ j qʼ
ɾ ɽ
r, r̥

Possibly: geminates; additional ejectivs (but we're not having a full set); voiced sibilant/chirants (may be allophonic)

/ɽ/ ← *ɭ

To be allocated

  • Difthong allophony/split: [au eu iu ~ ao eo io] (perhaps [ei ai ou ~ eː ae oː], [iː eː oː uː ~ ie ea oa uo])
    (last part looks a bit too Samic)
  • Labiodental flap
  • Labiouvular trilled affricate [♇]
  • /ʈʳ/ ~ [ɽ] vs. /t̪/
  • Voiced stop POA rotation:
    • b > w > gʷ
    • d > ð > v > b
    • ɟ > dʒ > dz > d (can be split to parts if needed)
    • g > j > ɟ
    • gʷ > g
  • Sonorants to stops:
    • l > lʰ > ɬ > tɬ > t
    • n > nʰ > θ > f > p

Lexical dump

Some number system, set as base-5 but extensible:

  • 1 2 3 4 hei len sa mo
  • b b² b³ b⁴ b⁵ idži tudži pxedži vašši teldži
  • 2b 2b² 2b³ 2b⁴ 2b⁵ lenidži lentudži leŋkadži lembašši lenterdži
  • 3b 3b² 3b³ 3b⁴ 3b⁵ saidži satudži sakwadži savašši saterdži
  • 4b 4b² 4b³ 4b⁴ 4b⁵ moidži gotudži gokwadži govašši goterdži
    • go is evidently (b-1).

(why -ter- in higher lakhads?? was this just an orthographic quirk?)

Orthographics

"Sumerian" diphonic faux-syllabary

With underspecification:

  • /tæmæ/ = TFV-L̃V-mFV-LV
  • /diːzə/ = TFV-HVFC-SMV

Ie. front/backness coded on "initial"; height coded on "coda"; will look like a vertical vowel system on first glance

morf

English needs more umlaut derivativs
