Æ /ɛ̄/ is a tonal Wiobic language.
Introduction
Æ is the tonal language which I always wanted in Tricin - one evolved from a nontonal, vaguely Germanic language. It has several obvious nods to Danish, such as the spelling, stød as part of a register tone system, and pharyngealized vowels.
Phonology
Consonants
p t tj k f s h m n nj ng l zj r v j /p t c k f s x m n ɲ ŋ l ɹ ʀ v j/
Vowels
Vowels: a e i o u ø æ å æ̊ ů /a e i o ɨ ø ɛ ɔ œ~ɶ u/ + pharyngealized versions, written ar er ir or ur ør ær år æ̊r ůr /aˤ eˤ iˤ oˤ ɨˤ øˤ ɛˤ ɔˤ œˤ~ɶˤ uˤ/
Use Tíogall-ish aesthetic with pharyngealized vowels
Tones
Æ has four register phonations or tones:
- Unmarked = modal, mid
- ƨ = stød
- з = Breathy
- ч = checked
