Bjeheondian English
VSO exclamations common; certain Bjeheondian calques; varying levels of Windermere and Shalaian phonetic influences

Bjeheondians sometimes reduce vowels to /ə/ even when native accents don't, like sometimes /səmtəms/; they also generalize plurals of nouns ending in f and th, the latter pronounced /dz/.
Other common phonetic features are a total merger of voiced th and d and th-stopping. R was historically uvular in broad Bjeheondian accents and alveolar in cultivated accents but this is reversed in modern times. As in other varieties of English, native words referring to flora and fauna unique to Tricin are borrowed into Bjeheondian English.
