==Diachronics==
'''Twetho''' (Tveþó stveïnn 'Twetho language') is an Anbiric language, a close relative of [[Anbirese]]. It is inspired by Burmese, Faroese, and Danish.
===Grimm's law===
===Verner's law===
Verner's law was discovered by the Skellan linguist Nirria Verner.
 
The consonant change is: f θ s  ł x xʷ > v ð z ʒ l ɣ ɣʷ > b d r ž l g w
 
PId had variable stress.
In PShal, words that were penult stressed in PId changed to have final stress because endings dropped out, while keeping PId stød. Verner's law occurred before the stress shifted away from final in final stressed words, again, and affected consonants immediately after a stressed syllable in this intermediate stage. It has no effect after stressed syllables with stød
 
PId hon. sg. *-asV > PShal *-áz > Shal. -r
honorific verbs on the other hand weren't affected by the penultimate to ultimate stress thing
hence hon sg verb affix -s
 
==Morphology==
Verner results in affix allomorphy and Grammatischer Wechsel
===The auxiliary===
Should be as far from cartesian product as possible. Justify with analytic constructions; relex Welsh
*direct imperfect: ''vor'' ← *bō ʕar = mae e'n, ''mar'' ← *bō mad ʕar = dydy e ddim yn
*direct perfect: ''lōkh'' ← *li ʔōkʷ = mi naeth e, ''vizha'' ← *bō hašgā = mae e heb
*direct irrealis: ''zhar't'' ← *jar kʷãtʼ = lit. stands before

==Syntax==
Proto-Shalaian syntax was AuxVOS:
*Stative verbs (eventually all intransitives): Aux_i prep VN-w_i S_i (abs/erg in Shal.)
*Dynamic verbs (eventually transitives): Aux_i prep s_j-VN-w_i O_j S_i (abs/erg in Shal.)
*Infinitive clauses: prep VN.INF-w_i S_i O ... (nom/acc in Shal.)
