- Phonological features inspired by Proto-Inuit -> Greenlandic sound changes
- Evidentiality
- (Split) ergativity
Indus
Paleo-Iranian
Retroflex consonants
South India and Southeast Asia
No retroflexes? Pandoga and Palkhan would be typologically unusual
South Africa
Ethio-IE and Ethio-Semitic
Habesīnan is an Indo-European language, spoken in Ethiopia in Lõis. In modern times it's mostly used as a liturgical and classical language, with the majority of the population speaking Togarmite.
Paḷkhan
Inspired by Kannada and Marathi
Some nativized (tadbhava) Sanskrit words
- ṇnima [ɽ̃n̪imɐ] "full moon" <- *puṇnima <- Sanskrit pūrṇimā
- pyaḷda "forest" <- ati-vṛddha "overgrown"
- mhoṇa "monk" <- śramaṇa
Proto-Palkhan -> Palkhan has an almost consistent stress shift to the second syllable causing the first syllable to get elided; this creates the retroflex-dental clusters and wreaks havoc with the morphology if there happen to be prefixes
separate words for numbers from 1 to 99
Palkhan borrows more from Sanskrit (even some derivational affixes) than Pandoga
Indian grammatical tradition
Includes historical linguistics? they may study the relationship between Greek and Sanskrit and develop a deep orthography that fits both (that could be Panini's claim to fame in Lõis!)
Polish Azalic
Inspired by Scots and Yiddish
