Eiuie is a constructed language, spoken by the Aat-Djaiik, residents of the planet Djaiik in the Aturae system. The word "eiuie" itself means "speech", it is the noun form of the verb "eiui", "to speak".
Phonology
- Eiuie uses 32 different verbalized sounds to compose its words: 9 vowels and 23 consonants. The 23 consonants are further divided into 8 'hard consonants'(6 plosives and 2 affricates), 5 'soft consonants' (3 nasals and 2 approximants), 9 fricatives, and 1 glottal stop (represented by an apostrophe [']).
Alphabet
- The Eiuie alphabet has 41 symbols: the 32 sounds plus an alternative smaller symbol for each of the vowels. It is usually represented in 5 columns from left to right, in the order of hard consonants, soft consonants, fricatives, vowels, and lastly alternate vowels in line with their corresponding vowels. The glottal stop is usually placed at the bottom of the hard consonant column. Eiuie is written vertically in columns from left to right, with each character in a word connecting together, as in English cursive. Small (alternate) symbols will be discussed in the script section.
