'''Modern Windermere''' is the sole modern descendant of Classical [[Windermere]]. It has remained pretty much unchanged since the time of rith Mărotł.
#REDIRECT [[Naeng]]
==Todo==
21 accents?
==Diachronics==
===Phonological history===
*ə > 0 after aspirated consonants and fricatives. This makes the voicing alternation in the Classical Wdm. spirants ''f'' and ''th'' phonemic.
*r > ɹ in the Rhythoed dialect (Talman Windermere has an Icelandic accent and Rhythoed has a British RP-ish accent)
*ł > ś, ş > ṣ
 
===Grammatical history===
*Aspect and trigger largely become derivational devices, cf. the development of PIE aspects and Semitic binyanim.
*Grammaticalization of conjugated auxiliaries, leading to a tense system.

*Caveat: ir = ier, ur = uar, etc.
*[ɨ ʉ] are allophones of /i y/ after /ʂ ɹ/.
====The Rhythoed dialect====
Rhythoed Windermere is non-rhotic: ''ir ür ur er or'' are pronounced /iə yə uə eə oə/. The stops ''b d g'' are actually voiced.
 
====Vowels before /ʟ/====
 
===Stress===
Stress is almost always final, but can be non-final in function words.
