Sound Changes

Consonant Mutations

As with all modern Celtic languages, Everish makes extensive use of initial consonant mutations to help signal grammatical and syntactic information. Everish has three main mutations: lenis (međol), spirant (cravol) and nasal (truinol). There is a fourth type of mutation called aspiration (huizol) in which word-initial vowels take an h'- before them.

The changes caused by the mutations are summarised in the following table.

Radical	Nasal	Lenis	Spirant
p /p/	b /b/		f /f/
t /t/	d /d/		z /θ/
c /k/	g /g/		h /x/
c /t͡ʃ/	g /d͡ʒ/		h /ʃ/
b /b/	m /m/	v /v/
d /d/	n /n/	đ /ð/
g /ɡ/	ng /ŋ/
g /d͡ʒ/	ñ /ɲ/	y /j/
y /j/	ñ /ɲ/
m /m/		v /ṽ/
ñ /ɲ/		n /n/
rr /r/		r /ɾ/

Lenited g disappears before a consonant, becomes w before words in go-, gu-, goo- and becomes h- before other vowels, e.g. gre "flock" → i re "his flock", gur "man, husband" → i wur "his husband", geryadour "dictionary" → i heryadour "his dictionary".

Examples:

• Lenition: i beñ "his head", di dad "your dad", i gi "his dog", a vanon "the lady", do Varselon "to Barcelona", .
• Spirantisation: i feñ "her head", tri zad "three dads", tair haz "three cats".
• Nasalisation: no manon "nine ladies", i Marselon "in Barcelona", mi garrer "my road"
• Aspiration: i h'ewidir "her uncle", an h'oungorn "our unicorn".
