Old Ravenish (autoglossonym: þiudiskōn; Ravenish: [θiu̯.ðiʃ.koːn]: Modern Ravenish: furaiþiudiskon) is a Germanic language.

Introduction

Goals

  • Fun
  • Learn more Germanic

Inspiration

  • Proto-Germanic
  • My love for old Germanic languages

Etymology

The language name derives from the same source as German Deutsch, þiudiskaz. The English name is in reference to a cultural aspect of the people, their unusually large reverence for Ravens, they place an oddly high importance on Ravens even for a Germanic tribe.

Consonants

Consonants have remained relatively close to Proto-Germanic, except for the few stops that had fricative allophones, these shifted fully to fricatives, the opposite of all other Germanic langs, the Velar fricatives also shifted to Uvular.

Consonant phonemes
Labial Dental alveolar post-

Uvular
Nasal m n (ŋ)¹, ŋʷ²
Stop p t k, kʷ
Fricative f v θ ð s z (ʃ (ʒ)⁴ χ, χʷ ʁ, ʁʷ

Trill r
  1. allophone of /n/ before /k/
  2. allophone of /n/ before /kʷ/
  3. allophone of /s/ before velars and at word ends
  4. allophone of /z/ before velars and at word ends

Sound Changes from PG

ɛ>æ

g>ɣ>ʁ, x>χ

b>β>v, ɸ>f, d>ð

Nasalization becomes /n/ after the vowel, PG '*þiudiskǭ' to Old Ravenish 'þiudiskōn'

ɔ>ɑ before a fricative, ɔ>o elsewhere

/s, z/ to /ʃ, ʒ/ before velars and at the end of words.

Prosody

Stress

Stress, like in PG, still lies solely on the first syllable unless prefixed, where stress moves with the root word.
