'''Izeweg''' (אַן יעס אידעוועק [an jes i'zeweg] 'the Jewish language', more archaically [i'ðeweg]), historically '''Judeo-Galatian''', is the traditional Northern European Jewish ("Tsarfati") vernacular in [[Verse:Irta|Irta]]. It is the second most spoken Celtic language and the most spoken Jewish language in-universe. It's (essentially) a Brythonic Celtic language and a descendant of Old [[Galoyseg]]. It's a possible answer to the question "What would a Jewish Celtic language look like?"


In-universe English name?
Judeo-[[Hivantish]]
 
PIE ē becomes tzere (merging with Proto-Brythonic *ė), PIE ei becones /oj/
 
== Writing ==
=== Vowels ===
/a aj e ej i o oj u uj ɨ aw ew iw ow/ אַ אַי ע עי אי אָ אָי אוֹ אוֹי אוּ אַוו עוו איוו אָוו ''a ai e ei i o oi w wi u aw ew iw ow''
 
=== Consonants ===
Default native spelling
 
כּ ק כ ג נק נכּ = ''c g ch gh ng ngh''
 
תּ ט ת ד נ נתּ = ''t d th dh n nh''
 
פּ בּ פ ב מ מפּ = ''p b f v m mh''
 
י ר ל לּ וו ס ש ה א = ''y r l ll w s š h (null)''
 
=== Mutations ===
The new consonant is prefixed in front of the mutated word with a hyphen: אַנאַ נתּ-תּוֹרה ''ana nhTuro'' 'in the Torah'.
 
=== Hebrew reading ===
Izeweg has no vowel reduction in Hebrew and Aramaic loans, unlike Yiddish. Stress is just shifted to penultimate (as in native Izeweg).
 
/2 b v g γ d δ h w z H T j k x l m n s 3 p f S q r š t θ/ = [(none)~2 p= v g x t= δ~z h w δ~z h t= j kh x l m n s (none)~2 ph f ts= k= r š th s]
 
TibH /i e E a O o u ŠN HP HS HQ/ = [i ej~aj e a o u ɨ a a e o]
 
L dagesh > Welsh ll. Some pronounce sin as ll.
 
== Mutations ==
Same as in Welsh but
* g post vocalically mutates to c'h
* no m > v
* ll but no rh
* t spirant mutates to s
 
== Grammar ==
More analytic than Colloquial Welsh, while Galoyseg is basically Cornish or Literary Welsh
=== Nouns ===
Indef article אין, def article אַן (> אים and אַם before /p b f m v/), feminine singular article triggers soft mutation
 
default native pl אָוו
 
(יעס > יעסאָוו) 'language'
 
sometimes עד
 
(ריען > ריענעד) 'woman'
 
=== Prepositions ===
"in" combining form with def article is אַנאָ ''ano'' (< *yno yn; triggers nasal mutation) or אַנאָן ''anon'' (before a vowel), otherwise it's מעוון (even when the noun is semantically definite)
 
''*am'' also changes for indefinites to קעלך (~ cylch), def article is אַמאָ(ן) ''amo(n)'' (formed with analogy to ''anon'')
 
=== Verbs ===
Default verber is -יאָ like in Welsh (influenced by Hebrew feminine marker)
