'''Izeweg''' (אידעוועק [i'zeweg]) is the traditional Northern European Jewish ("Tsarfati") vernacular in Irta. It's (essentially) a Brythonic Celtic language and a descendant of Old [[Galoyseg]]. It's a possible answer to the question "What would a Jewish Celtic language look like?" (and I now believe Brythonic is a less uncanny-valley basis for that than Goidelic).


In-universe English name?
Judeo-[[Hivantish]], spoken by Jews in our Russia/Arctic Circle?


Essentially a Judeo-Breton~Welsh
יוּדעיסר טאָזווער ''Yudaysr tozwar'' / יוּדעיוּ-היבענטיסר טאָזווער ''Yudayu-Hivantisr tozwar''

Hebrew nouns are indeclinable and take their Hebrew plurals.
 
=== Mutations ===
The new consonant is prefixed in front of the mutated word with a hyphen: אַ נתּ-תּוֹרה ''a nhToyro'' 'in the Torah'.
 
=== Hebrew reading ===
Izeweg has no vowel reduction in Hebrew and Aramaic loans, unlike Yiddish. Stress is just shifted to penultimate (as in native Izeweg).
