The goal of this page is to create a suitable set of sound changes while minimizing change to the vocab. If something is very clearly unnaturalistic, I'm willing to go back and make changes however.

Cwengâr:

  • Lenitioning of Unvoiced consonants prior to a back vowel: [qCf->ɢCf].
  • Reflexively, there was a fortitioning of Voiced Consonants prior to a Front Vowel: [ɢCf->qCf]
    • This is a point of Departure with Cán Ánan which continued the lenition, thus; [ɢCf->ʁCf]
  • Grammatical Flapping Lenitioning for compounds was already a Galavic innovation, Cwengâr and Fén both apply this to some grammatical concepts, particularly adjectives and nouns. Cwengâr introduced nasal fortitioning to increase contrast between possessed objects and vowels and merged auxiliaries.
  • Two major vowel shifts; ɯ>ɤ>ʌ>ɑ and ɪ>e>ɜ>a.
  • i and u also eventually shifted to y and ʏ respectively. Though this is believed to have occureed with a shift of i>ɪ and u>i, before the accent came to emulate Toryl.
  • ɲ>ŋ
  • ɸ>f,β>v,z>ʃ,s>ʒ.

Fén:

  • Palatization had some effect, believed to be an influence of the native proto-Kerg peoples of the region[?]-
  • [qCf->cCf (later c->s)]&[ɢCf->ɟCf]&[wCf->vCf]
  • All Fricatives underwent Palatization with the exception of; ɸ->f, z->ʒ, s->sh[->h], ʝ->ɣ.
  • Vowel Shift- [Not going to write it all out now]
  • ɢ & q became g & k respectively.
  • G issue: G & ɣ seem to have either reverted [ɢ>ɟ>G/ɢ>G/ʝ>ʒ] or resisted change. This could again have to do with the natives, contact with Toryl or some other factor.
