Idavic or Idavo-Etalocian is a Trician language family which includes Dodellic. The urheimat is central-western Etalocin.
Inspiration: Afro-Asiatic, IE
How does this become Netagin tricons?

Phonology
Consonants
Proto-Idavic had about 27 consonants and had a distinction between front and back coronals and front and back velars. It is thought to have had no labials except /m/; labials were gained in later languages but in different ways.
| Labial | Front coronal | Back coronal | Front velar | Back velar | Labiovelar | Glottal | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nasal | m /m/ | n /n̪~n̠/ | ŋ /ɲ~ŋ/ | |||||

In PId triliteral roots, front coronal stops and back coronal stops could not occur next to each other, and neither could front velars, back velars and labiovelars stops (hopefully then the roots would sound less Semitic).
Vowels
Proto-Idavic had a vowel system similar to that of Proto-Balto-Slavic.
| Front | Back | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| short | long | short | long | |
| Close | i /ɪ/ | ī /i:/ | u /ʊ/ | ū /u:/ |
| Open | e /æ/ | ē /æ:/ | a /ɑ/ | ā /ɑ:/ |
Diphthongs: ay aw ey ew~jaw
Suprasegmentals
- Pitch accent: modal (á), creaky (ã)
- Creaky voice is the source of glottal reinforcement in Shalaian and gemination in Netagin.
Morphology
Triconsonantal but only Netagin preserves this
Syntax
Lifted from German: V2, SAuxOV, verb final in subordinate clauses
Todo: separable prefixes
