Leaper/Orange
The ʕʷàraḳapī language is a descendant of Khulls spoken in the northern part of the Poswob Empire, near territories that long ago were part of "Baywatch" country. It takes its name from discarded morphemes meaning navel orange, because it is an attempt to create from Khulls a language whose phonology and to a lesser extent morphology resemble those of Mandarin Chinese. It is part of a series of fruit-flavored languages that also includes Apple Pie, Lemonade, Strawberry Icecream, and Raspberry Wine.
Phonology
Tones are kept and are more robust than anywhere else.
Most sound changes are unconditional, because most morphemes are one syllable long and many final consonants are dropped or assimilated. It may be that the language will not resemble Mandarin as much as certain other dialects, however, because it is unlikely that the entire array of 20 possible final consonants will collapse to just /n ŋ/ or even to /m n ŋ/. Still, syllabic nasals could help out here.
