'''Ancient Tzaloxian''' (''Fiüssu na Hiaini'' natively; ''in huēyaca tzaloxin'' in [[Naquian]]) is one of the two main languages of the Naquian civilization in [[Tricin]].

==Introduction==

''Faäni'' = a name

*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"


Tzaloxian is the proto-language of the Tzaloxic language family. Most Trician scholars believe it's a language isolate, though there are pseudolinguistic theories connecting it to languages of Bjeheond.
==Tonal Latin==


Modern Tzaloxic varieties are still spoken in southern Txapoalli though by very few people.
*louksnā -> lū̀ˀna


The ancient language is very popular among college students and professors in Nøøvr, many of whom pronounce it with a thick Eevo or Bhadhagha accent.
==Traditional English pronunciation of Sanskrit==
Idea: "What if Sanskrit had a reading tradition from Medieval England"


==Mythology==
*"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"


==Phonology==
===Rigveda===
===Orthography===
===Consonants===


Tzaloxian has a simple consonant inventory with only 12 consonants:

*the nasals ''m n ŋ'', pronounced as in IPA
*the fricatives ''f s x'', pronounced /f s x~ħ~h/
*the liquid ''l'', which is /ɾ/ when single and /l:/ when geminated


''F'', ''s'' and ''z'' before ''i'' are commonly pronounced /ç/, /ʃ/ and /tʃ/ respectively.

Tzaloxian has 45 different vowels, perhaps the most of any major Trician language. There are:

==Phonotactics==
# [bɪsmɪˈl:ɛ:hɪ r{{vel}}:ɑh{{phar}}ˈmɛ:nɪ r:{{vel}}:ɑˈh{{phar}}ɐi:m]
A typical Tzaloxian root looks like CV(C(:)S), where C is a consonant; V is one of the 45 vowels; and S is a simple vowel (a, i or u).
# [ʔəl ˈh{{phar}}ɑmdʊ̈ lɪl:ˈlɛ:hɪ ˈr{{vel}}ɑb:ɪl ʔ{{phar}}a:ləˈmi:n]
 
# [ʔər{{vel}}:ɑh{{phar}}ˈmɛ:nɪ r:{{vel}}:ɑˈh{{phar}}ɐi:m]
The glottal stop can't be geminated.
# [ˈmɛ:lɪcʰɪ ˈjɛ̈wmɪ ˈd:i:n]
 
# [ʔi:ˈjɛ:cʰə ˈnæʔ{{phar}}p⁼ʊ̈dʊ̈ və ʔi:ˈjɛ:cʰə nəstʰæˈʔ{{phar}}ɐi:n]
There is vowel harmony in Tzaloxian; if V ends in ''i'' or ''ï'', S can't be ''u'', and vice versa (S can't be ''i'' if V ends in ''u'' or ''ü''). So for example:
# [ˈʔɪht⁼ɪnɛ: s{{vel}}:ëˈr{{vel}}ɑ:d{{den}}{{vel}}əl mʊ̈stʰəˈgi:m]
 
# [s{{vel}}ëˈr{{vel}}ɑ:d{{den}}{{vel}}ə l:əˈdi:nə ʔənˈʔ{{phar}}æmtʰə ʔ{{phar}}æˈlɛ̈ɪhɪm ˈɣɐjrɪl məɣˈz{{vel}}u:bɪ ʔ{{phar}}æˈlɛ̈ɪhɪm vəlɛ: ˈz{{vel}}:ɑ:l:i:n]
* ''fiüssu'' and ''fiüssa'' are valid words, but *''fiüssi'' isn't;
 
* ''ciuana'', ''ciuani'' and ''ciuanu'' are all valid words.
 
==Morphology==
<!-- How do the words in your language look? How do you derive words from others? Do you have cases? Are verbs inflected? Do nouns differ from adjectives? Do adjectives differ from verbs? Etc. -->

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"
