| Now to derive Schnüher from Old Cobhodham
| |
|
| |
|
| fa:m, djə̤-S, njə:k, mwɨwl, zjə̤jl, tʰwəm, vwɨwt, ljə̤:t, pʰjə̤p, kjə:-S
| |
| no...
| |
| uhh what should be done with sll these f-'s?
| |
| f- doesn't sound sino korean
| |
| I might eliminate mutations from Schnüher
| |
| I might get something like 안 대 서 for "The Schnüher language"
| |
| if I do schm, schn > xw, sj like OC > MC

| 2 hours ago
| |
|
| |
| well there's a problem
| |
|
| |
| elves live much longer lives than humans
| |
|
| |
| so that should slow down language change
| |
|
| |
| and something like Cobhodham will be impossible
| |
|
| |
| f->h in Schnüher!
| |
|
| |
| as in Japanese
| |
|
| |
| pre-Schnüher
| |
| ha:m, djə̀-S, njə:k, mwɨwl, zjə̀jl, tʰwəm, hwɨwt, ljə̀:t, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
|
| |
| final t = -ᆮ, -ᆺ or -ᆻ?
| |
|
| |
| 함', 뎧, 녘', ᄆᆍᆯ, ᅀᅤᆯ, 퉘, ᄒᆍᆮ, 렽', 폎, 껴'
| |
|
| |
| i used final -h for breathy tone
| |
|
| |
| t+h->tʰ, p+h->pʰ etc.
| |
| what's the apostrophe
| |
|
| |
| sorry 3 is 녁' (not breathy)
| |
| glottalization?
| |
|
| |
| long vowels
| |
|
| |
| it's right after the vowel!
| |
|
| |
| Hangul is something that could easily be invented in a parallel universe
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| the consonants at least
| |
|
| |
| actually Vrūszka should use something like that
| |
| final -l > nothing?
| |
|
| |
| i thought final l -> l
| |
| final -l > -j or -w?
| |
| final -t > -l
| |
|
| |
| does sino-korean have final -t?
| |
| nope
| |
|
| |
| so t->l and l->w
| |
| maybe not
| |
| -l > -j/-w/-0
| |
| maybe depending on the vowel
| |
|
| |
| l/jl/wl->w/j/w
| |
|
| |
| thoughts?
| |
| l > -0
| |
| -jl > j
| |
| wl > w
| |
|
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| so -l -> -Ø always
| |
| i wanted cobhodham to be more like mandarin actually
| |
|
| |
| so no -l's?
| |
| in the nuclei
| |
| i'm thinking -wl, -jl > -l
| |
| and -wn, -jn > -n
| |
| in cobhodham
| |
|
| |
| so you'll get lots of -l's
| |
|
| |
| no
| |
| no to what?
| |
|
| |
| lots of -l's in Schnüher
| |
| i'm talking about cobhodham
| |
|
| |
| what about all final consonants->l in Schnüher:-D
| |
| in cobhodham:
| |
| -wC, -jC > -C
| |
|
| |
| that changes the whole story
| |
|
| |
| 4 becomes mwɨl
| |
| so that cobhodham can have more mandarin-like nuclei
| |
| and final -Vw, -Vj > just -Vbh, -Vigh
| |
| yesterday's version of cobhodham would be a lot like schnueher with the monophthongizations
| |
| koreans monophthongize all -j, -w codas
| |
| in their sino words
| |
|
| |
| and clicks grin emoticon
| |
| except ㅢ?
| |
| so dae might correspond to dai
| |
|
| |
| what's an example?
| |
|
| |
| ũi?
| |
| kaw > 고
| |
| 'high'
| |
| while mandarin: gāo
| |
| love: MC ʔoj > Sino-Korean ae, Mandarin ài
| |
|
| |
| i was asking for an example of ũi
| |
|
| |
| btw Schnüher could simply use Hangul linearly instead of in syllable blocks
| |
|
| |
| with double vowels instead of long vowels
| |
| it seems like ㅢ is a different thing
| |
| it only occurs with a null initial
| |
| one example is 'rely': MC ʔjɨj > SK ũi
| |
|
| |
| 있다 should be a word in Eomuji
| |
| ista or itta
| |
|
| |
| ista!
| |
| or should i use /ihta/ as the pronunciation for ista?
| |
|
| |
| ihta is like fake finnish
| |
| i could use <tt> = /ht/
| |
|
| |
| tt=t’
| |
| instead of t'
| |
|
| |
| i'd just go with ejectives
| |
|
| |
| reminds me of some pronunciation guides that say that consonants like ᄄ are ejectives
| |
| there should also be -ht- clusters
| |
|
| |
| (i've seen a few)
| |
| as in nõhta
| |
| or no
| |
| nõhda*
| |
|
| |
| well if you do have words like nõhda it'll become fake finno-estonian tongue emoticon
| |
| neohda
| |
|
| |
| even that's not latin enough
| |
| so for example, neoh + da > neota? (as in ordinary Korean)
| |
| or neotha?
| |
|
| |
| -hd- is a tricky cluster for a lot of people
| |
|
| |
| Neotha is good
| |
|
| |
| or even neohda -> neoda? neorda?
| |
|
| |
| I can't think of any languages that have -hd- that are not Slavic or Finnic
| |
| i like 좋다 'good': johda > jotha
| |
| 좋다 is a korean word
| |
|
| |
| I guess Old Korean had it grin emoticon
| |
| maybe
| |
|
| |
| or they're just writing the underlying stem + ending as they do a lot in korean
| |
| ph, th, jh, kh should be clusters
| |
|
| |
| well if you stick "johda" in a conlang they'll definitely think it's fake Finnic and say 요ᄒ다
| |
| i'll just go with jotha
| |
|
| |
| seviyeoreum
| |
| Like "Nehtait härvä"
| |
|
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| you can stick "johda" in Unfinnish
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| i should make a turkish-korean hybrid where "yeoreum" is the present tense
| |
| yes, -ss- occurs in some affixes that are derived from issta
| |
| in korean
| |
| f > h: yes, good we need some h's in Schnueher
| |
| ha:m, djə̀-S, njə:k, mwɨwl, zjə̀jl, tʰwəm, hwɨwt, ljə̀:t, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
|
| |
| then what about l's?
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, djə̀-S, njə:k, mwɨw, zjə̀j, tʰwəm, hwɨwl, ljə̀:l, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| let's actually make final -l retroflex grin emoticon
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, djə̀-S, njə:k, mwɨw, zjə̀j, tʰwəm, hwɨwɭ, ljə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
| then tj > tS, dj > dZ
| |
| pj, bj > p b
| |
|
| |
| really?
| |
| or maybe not
| |
| pyo, pyeong, pyeon sorry
| |
|
| |
| we need ᅧ's
| |
| but there are no tyV seqs in sino korean
| |
| they're all chV's and jV's
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mwɨw, zjə̀j, tʰwəm, hwɨwɭ, ljə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
| similarly for sj, zj > s, z
| |
| z > s
| |
|
| |
| really?
| |
|
| |
| are there no sj's in sino-korean?
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mwɨw, sjə̀j (or sə̀j?), tʰwəm, hwɨwɭ, ljə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
| yes, no sj's
| |
| in older korean there were a lot of them even in native affixes
| |
| so hasjosjə > hasosə
| |
|
| |
| so there was an sj-s merger
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mwɨw, sə̀j, tʰwəm, hwɨwɭ, ljə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
| now's a good time to monophthongize
| |
|
| |
| yes!
| |
|
| |
| aj/aw/əj/əw/ɨj/ɨw -> ?
| |
| ae, o, e, u, i, u
| |
|
| |
| johda grin emoticon
| |
| we say joha usually in casual speech
| |
| that's the casual register
| |
|
| |
| what's the formal one?
| |
|
| |
| anyway,
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mwu, sə̀j, tʰwəm, hwuɭ, ljə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
|
| |
| what happens to long vowels?
| |
|
| |
| do you want to keep them?
| |
| wu > u, u > eu?
| |
| maybe that should be conditioned
| |
| eu never occurs after labials
| |
| and never in open syllables
| |
| so ɨ > i?
| |
|
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| u->eu except after labials and in open syllables when it's u
| |
|
| |
| wu->u
| |
| 겨 only occurs in native korean strangely enough
| |
|
| |
| what does it mean?
| |
| 겨 = chaff, grain husk
| |
|
| |
| so it'll be Korean gib (not necessarily sino)
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mu, sə̀j, tʰwəm, huɭ, ljə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
| sino-korean has a lot of weird distributions as I said earlier
| |
|
| |
| initial l's drop
| |
|
| |
| should they?
| |
| initial in prosodic units!
| |
| so does prosodic unit-inital nj > j
| |
|
| |
| so 8 will sound like 10 grin emoticon
| |
| or i could keep them as in north korean sino words
| |
| e.g. rodong 'labor'
| |
| i'll do the north korean thing
| |
|
| |
| initial l->ɾ
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| what about initial r-?
| |
| merger
| |
| with inital l
| |
|
| |
| or should it become h-?
| |
| yes
| |
|
| |
| since it's uvular
| |
|
| |
| so there's an r-f merger! grin emoticon
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mu, sə̀j, tʰwəm, huɭ, ɾjə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
| should voiced and voiceless stops merge?
| |
|
| |
| at the beginning
| |
| maybe there should be no mutations
| |
|
| |
| b- sounds like pʰ- but -b- and -pʰ- are distinct
| |
| i'm talking about b-/p-
| |
|
| |
| no
| |
| maybe p- should merge iwth ph\
| |
| into ph
| |
|
| |
| p- should be separate
| |
| no....
| |
| that's really un-sino-korean!
| |
|
| |
| really?
| |
| ㅃ
| |
| did you propose p- > pp-?
| |
|
| |
| well it could happen in the middle
| |
| pp-, tt-, kk- don't occur in sino words
| |
| ssang 'double' and ssi 'surname, an honorific' are exceptions
| |
| there are rules governing tensing of consonants word-medially
| |
|
| |
| well, let's just merge p- and ph-
| |
|
| |
| and also b- phrase-initially
| |
| silje 'real, real-life' > pronounced siljje
| |
|
| |
| and i forgot sʰ
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mu, sʰə̀j, tʰwəm, huɭ, ɾjə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kjə:-S
| |
|
| |
| sorry
| |
| i think consonants always tense after -l
| |
| in sino-korean
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀-S, njə:k, mu, sʰə̀j, tʰwəm, huɭ, ɾjə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kʰjə:-S
| |
|
| |
| so it's like not having séimhiú
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀, njə:k, mu, sʰè, tʰwəm, huɭ, ɾjə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kʰjə:
| |
| there shouldn't be mutations in schnueher
| |
|
| |
| that would be confusing
| |
| so no gender
| |
|
| |
| the only obvious non-korean thing i notice is long vowels
| |
| korean does have long vowels
| |
|
| |
| what's an example?
| |
| -wəm doesn't sound sino-korean
| |
|
| |
| maybe they're just not written out
| |
| they aren't written out
| |
| and many speakers don't have lenght distinctions
| |
|
| |
| so we can keep them
| |
| beol 'punishment' has a short vowel while beol 'bee' has a long one
| |
|
| |
| can native Korean words have -wəm?
| |
| nope
| |
| effectively no
| |
|
| |
| what about -wəm -> -um?
| |
|
| |
| or -wə?
| |
| -wəm > -əm?
| |
|
| |
| tʰəm
| |
| strange, 엄, 검, 섬, 험 does occur in sino korean
| |
|
| |
| ha:m, dʒə̀, njə:k, mu, sʰè, tʰəm, huɭ, ɾjə̀:ɭ, pʰjə̀p, kʰjə:
| |
| but 덤 does not
| |
|
| |
| that's great for gib then!
| |
| 함. 저, 녁, 무, 세, 텀 (?), 훌 (?), 렬, 폅 (?), 켜 (?)
| |
| (?) = words of doubtful sino-korean aesthetics
| |
| 렬 is very sino-korean like emoticon
| |
|
| |
| 함, 젛, 녁', 무, 셓, 덤, 훌, 렳', 폎, 켜'
| |
| OTOH 엽, 협, 겹, 접 < 뎝, 섭 < 셥 are allowed
| |
| so why not 볍/폅?!?
| |
|
| |
| so many things about sino-korean are so arbitrary
| |
|
| |
| sorry 함'
| |
|
| |
| that's weird
| |
|
| |
| like why is "xiāi" not a Mandarin word
| |
| because -iai is not a valid rime in mandarin
| |
|
| |
| not having 폅 is odd grin emoticon
| |
| sino-korean words beginning with aspirated /kh/ are rare
| |
|
| |
| 함', 젛, 녁', 무, 셓, 덤, 훌, 렳', 폎, 켜'
| |
| it seems that korean did not have phonemic aspiration at the time sino words were borrowed en masse
| |
|
| |
| i'm using -h for breathy tone, so 렳'
| |
| ㅎ final in sino-korean is weird unsure emoticon
| |
|
| |
| does it appear in native words?
| |
| stem-finally but not word finally
| |
|
| |
| like?
| |
| 닿-다 'to touch (involuntarily)', 놓-다 'to put', 좋-다 'good'
| |
|
| |
| i meant final -lh sorry
| |
| final -h is always replaced with something else in pronunciation
| |
| that is it causes sandhi
| |
| 닳다 'wear out'
| |
|
| |
| tʰaltʰa?
| |
| yes, tʰàltʰa
| |
|
| |
| i'm happy with Schnüher
| |
| mya, myaC, kya, kyaC are not in sino-korean either
| |
| really no Cya or CyaC
| |
| except ya or yaC
| |
|
| |
| what happens to initial ŧ?
| |
| it's kept as a click!

| inflection can be the indo-european type

| not "c"?
