Hiberno-Japanese /tɐxelɪĩxaã/ (From Irish Tá Gaelainn agam 'I speak Irish') is an Irish-based creole spoken in future postapocalyptic Irta. It's been influenced by different populations from Irta's North America - Irish, Jewish, Japanese, English, Athabaskan.

A Spanish/Dutch/Tamil accent? d g = /ð x/ (natural evolution, not influenced by another language)

Japanese noun phrases (but SVO) relexed with mostly Irish vocab, with jp/eng vocab for technical terms; Practically an Irish+Gaelic Hebrew+Aramaic+Japanese+English creole. The liturgical language of some weird religion? (Shouldn't be Abrahamic but should be influenced by Judaism)

Numbers: ayaado, adoo, atoshii, acheha, akuuji, asheesh, asheba, ahooto, anii, ajehi

Phonology

/a e i o (Japanese u)/ vowel system, based on Ballmer Ăn Yidiș + Japanese (with slightly less restrictions on CV combos); r = /l/

Allows final consonants devoiced in Japanese

VnC consonants realized as nasal vowels: jįshį (3sg animate) etc.
