Irish reading tradition for an Indic language

-h's interpreted as lenition

retroflexes are ignored but Th and Dh become dental fricatives

should be for a middle Prakrit (a liturgical form of Sauraseni)

Jamaican/Finnish Latin

  • Ecclesiastical Latin ti -> tsi gone wild: in this dialect it becomes si
    • Reflexive pronouns disappear (since tibi and sibi merge)
  • ē, ō -> ie, uo (the opposite of Romance languages)
    • could create interesting false friends with Romance languages like "bacon"/"beer can"

Tonal Latin

  • louksnā -> lū̀ˀna

Traditional English pronunciation of Sanskrit

Idea: "What if Sanskrit had a reading tradition from Medieval England"

  • "Cerebrals" merge with dentals as in southeast Asian languages
  • Word-final nasal -ṃ merges with -m as in the traditional reading of Latin
  • Miraculously final -aḥ and -o merge into /-oʊ/, the former is an independent development from Prakrit languages -- it comes from the usual assimilation of "silent gh"

Rigveda

/ægnɪmaɪli pəroʊhitəm jædʒnəsjə diwəm əɹtwɪdʒəm hoʊteɪɹəm ɹætnəðeɪtəməm/

Indo-Arabic

"Arabs assimilate to Indian culture"

q k g ğ ng (g is a foreign phoneme) C c j ž ny (zh is also foreign) T t d δ n P f b b m (P is added) y r l w š S s h

Skt CiCāCa gets borrowed as Stem III
