'''Proto-Clofabic''' or '''Tamil''' (Proto-Clofabic: LΛŦꝨΠ ΠΔⱵ ''tamil lor'' 'same/shared/common language'; Clofabosin: ''methoserotin'' 'the people's language'; ''tamilserotin'' refers to any proto-language) is the (attested!) proto-language of the [[Clofabic languages|Clofabic]] family, which includes [[Clofabosin]] and [[Phormatolidin]]. It was spoken 2000 years before modern Clofabosin. It is a significant source of loanwords for [[Eevo]] and other Talman languages.

==Phonotactics==
Proto-Clofabic allows very unusual clusters, such as ''ds2a'' 'good'. However, the more "unusual" clusters are allowed only word-initially. Elsewhere, the clusters are more typical of the Talma region. (i.e. nothing I don't want in Eevo)
 
Also, initial ''ř-'' is not allowed.
 
==Orthography==
*a: Λ
*b: Ỻ
*k: Ǝ
*d: X
*e: Ʞ
*β: Ꙟ
