Bâzrâmani (or Bazramæni)

This page was last changed Monday 18 July 2011

Note that this Romano-Persian lang has undergone a name change. It used to be Râmâniyân, but is now Bâzrâmani < VÓCEM RÓMÁNICAM.

1  Geminate consonants are treated as if initial.

2  Where V is a copy of the following vowel.

3  As the last consonant in a cluster l becomes /r/: Cl > Cr e.g. clarus > kharor.

4  [4] More exactly VlC becomes uC or iC depending on whether V is back or front (after Bâzrâmani umlaut?), as detailed below.

Special contexts

niV, neV, miV, meV nyV
riV, reV zhV /ʒ/
ll y
-cul-, -gul- ly > y
viC guC, e.g. vitium > gus
-Cicum# Ci#
-ellum -oy > ey
vo u
al,el,ol u / _C e.g. altus > ud.
ôl,ul,ûl u / _C.
il,îl,êl i / _C.


It will be seen that the consonant changes are essentially an outline of the changes between Old and Middle Persian with an occasional Old Iranian or Romance feature rearing its head. They are of course subject to future refinement.

The transcription zh for ry is actually somewhat inaccurate. Lemontaigner as Râmani writers choose this transcription in order to more clearly distinguish ry ژ from ri ري in Arabic script.

Morphology

Plurals of nouns

Bâzrâmani plurals continue the Latin accusative plurals. There has however been metathesis of the vowel and the final h < S. Thus we find:

-âs -(e)hi (by analogy) fem'nâs, rôtâs, cistâs
> *fem'nês, rôtês, cistês 		famhi, râdhi, chestehi
-ôs -(a)hâ caballôs, cattôs, diurnôs kaveyhâ, kotahâ, zornhâ
-ês -(e)hi ratiônês, fontês rasânhi, fandehi

As in other Romance languages neuters have merged with the masculine, and the fourth declension has merged with the second, thus *genôs > janhâ 'knees'.

Adjectives have become indeclinable, unless substantivized

Verb inflection

amâre
amar
amô
amâ
amâs tû
amâst
amat
amad
amâmus
amomho, amomoh
amâtis
