==Sinitic and Sino-Xenic==
==Sinitic and Sino-Xenic==
===Mandarin===
Old and Middle Chinese are the same as in our timeline, but Modern Irta has a complete different set of modern Sinitic and Sino-Xenic languages.
In-universe Mandarin has two scripts: an alternate history Pinyin and a Hebraization invented by __.


East Asian languages in Irta generally use the Roman alphabet
* Old Chinese
** Middle Chinese
*** Old English gibberish
*** Swedish/Icelandic gibberish
*** ???
* Sino-Xenic languages
** Bantu-ish/nontonal polysyllabic Hmong
*** Irish-inspired language


Alternate history pinyin: uses Zhuang tone letters
b p m f, d t n l, z c s, zr cr sr r, ź ć ś (or otherwise unmarked; clear from context), g k h
a, ae, au, an, ang
y for Pinyin e
"z" by itself is used for Pinyin "zi", Pinyin "ji" is written "zi" or sometimes "gi" (this alternate history Pinyin is introduced during Early Modern Mandarin times so literate users keep older distinctions though spelling mistakes are common nowadays)

the word for thank you is written "obligatọ" by folk etymology
===Accents===
Irta Japanese can distinguish slender d and slender z-->
===Korean===
Standard Korean is the same as our timeline's Seoul Korean but is written in the Greek alphabet. It has a Romanization invented by Samuel McAbram inspired in part by Ăn Yidiș orthography.
Middle Korean initial clusters are written out: hamkkey 'together' is written ''hampsge̤''
''Modyn inganyn tea&#798;nar psdebuta&#798; dzaıuroumıa&#798; gy dzona&#798;mgva gva&#798;nrie̤ issa&#798; doηdyηhada. Inganyn tza&#798;nbudza&#798;gyro isa&#798;ηgva ıaηsimyr buıa&#798;batassymıa&#798; sa&#798;ro hıa&#798;ηdze̤eỵ dza&#798;ηsinyro heηdoηhaıa&#798;ıa handa.''

Second-largest Chinese lect in Irta
Develops its own version of erhua (transcribed ''-r'') from Cuam influence but it means something different
* ''njem'' 'to think' > ''njemr'' (the m is lenited) 'thoughts'
Should be a hyper-Cantonese, a result of b/s redeveloping as it did in Cuam?
