'''{{SUBPAGENAME}}''' /tɐxelɪĩxaã/ (From Irish ''Tá Gaelainn agam'' 'I speak Irish') is an Irish-based creole spoken in future postapocalyptic Irta. It's been influenced by different populations from Irta's North America - Irish, Jewish, Japanese, English, Athabaskan.
Irish-Japanese-Mandarin-Korean (mainly Irish, Mandarin and Sino-Xenic) creole spoken in Irta Tricin's Cualand, written in Katakana


A Spanish/Dutch/Tamil accent? d g = /ð x/ (natural evolution, not influenced by another language)
mishi ōu ishiki = I drink (drank, will drink...) water


Japanese noun phrases (but SVO) relexed with mostly Irish vocab, with jp/eng vocab for technical terms; Practically an Irish+Gaelic Hebrew+Aramaic+Japanese+English creole. The liturgical language of some weird religion? (Shouldn't be Abrahamic but should be influenced by Judaism)
mishi gurāshmas tusa = I love you


Numbers: ''ayaado, adoo, atoshii, acheha, akuuji, asheesh, asheba, ahooto, anii, ajehi''

Tagęrįgą has two registers/accents: Irish-based normal accent (called Tagerįgį < Munster Irish ''tá an Ghaelainn againn'' 'we speak Irish') and a Ballmer Ăn Yidiș-influenced liturgical accent (called Tanidishkį < Ballmer Ăn Yidiș-based ''T' ăn Idiș geng'' 'we speak Ăn Yidiș'). ''Tanidishkį'' is less voiced (voiceless stops more aspirated, b d g not spirantized) and has some vowel changes or lexical pronunciation changes corresp. to Irish ~ Ballmer Ăn Yidiș vowel changes, like /o u/ = [u ow], /ee ie e ej aj/ = [ie ii ej aj aa]
