'''Warhinysko''' (/warχinɨsko/) is a Balto-Slavic language spoken in western Russia and Scandinavia. It's the most spoken Balto-Slavic language in the [[Verse:Unbegotten|Unbegotten]] timeline; it is neither Baltic nor Slavic, and belongs to its own fictional branch of Balto-Slavic. It has a bit of Slavic like palatalization early on but turns them into geminates or Greekifies them (ly > ll > ɬ etc.). | '''Warhinysko''' (/warχinɨsko/) is a Balto-Slavic language spoken in western Russia and Scandinavia.

Warhinysko has lost the Balto-Slavic pitch accent system. Some vowel reflexes differ by accent; the PBS acute makes vowels RTR and thus has RTR-like effects on vowels (i > e, u > o, a > o in some cases). | |||
It is inspired by Welsh and Paleosiberian langauges. | It is inspired by Welsh and Paleosiberian langauges. | ||

Warhinysko has 5 cases: nominative, accusative, oblique-ergative, genitive, and vocative. The oblique-ergative was formed from a merger of the PBS dative, instrumental and locative cases. | |||
Like Baltic and unlike Slavic, | Like Baltic and unlike Slavic, Warhinysko has merged masculine and neuter genders. However, like in Slavic languages, there is an animacy distinction in the masculine gender: the accusative case is the same as the genitive for masculine animate nouns and the same as the nominative for other nouns. | ||
