Idavic

Netagin (Năhtuıyin /ˈnəʔtʰʉjin/) is a Sami, Hebrew and Windermere-inspired Idavic language. It is related to Shalaian but phonologically is less conservative. Like Shalaian, Netagin is an inflected head-initial language, but has a more fusional morphology: both nouns and verbs are inflected using stem changes (Sami-style consonant gradation, umlaut and creaky voice ablaut) in addition to prefixes and suffixes. It also retains older Idavic morphology such as cases and the dual. The relationship between Shalaian and Netagin is analogous to that between Centum and Satem IE languages: labiovelars become plain velars and plain velars become the c̦-series in Netagin.

Shalaian and Netagin belong to a common sprachbund. They are two different branches of the Idavic family that convergently evolved to share the following features:

  • Preglottalization
  • Large vowel system
  • Historical non-rhoticity
  • Verb-initial syntax
  • Split-ergativity

About

External history

This is the sixth reincarnation of Netagin (my past Hebrew-inspired conlangs).

I was getting bored of standard-fare Semitic and Celtic aesthetics, so I decided to try out a much more (mainly Northern and Skolt) Sami aesthetic and make the Hebrew influence much more subtle (at least phonologically).

Internal history

Netagin is a conlang created by Edna Ashe. Like its relative Shalaian, it is loosely inspired by Hebrew, Welvington English, and Celtic languages (Old Irish, Judeo-Gaelic and Verthanic).

Both Netagin and Shalaian are used as liturgical languages in Ashe's personal system of spirituality.

Consonants

  • Nasals:

    • n dn dnn hn hnn /n tn dːn n̥ː n̥ːː/
  • Stops:

    • t tt ht htt d dd hd hdd th /tʰ tːʰ ʔtʰ ʔːtʰ t~d tː ht hːt ð~θ/

  • Fricatives: s ss s's ș șș ș'ș σ σσ σ'σ h hh h'h /s sː sːː ʃ ʃː ʃːː ɬ ɬː ɬːː h xː xːː/
  • Other resonants:
    • l ll gll hl hll /ʟ qː ɢː χː χːː/
    • r rr drr hr hrr /ɾ tɾ dːɾ r̥ː r̥ːː/
    • y yy gyy hy hyy /j cː ɟː çː çːː/
    • w ww gww hw hww /w kʷː gʷː xʷː xʷːː/

The back liquid /ʟ/ is realized as a pharyngealized nasalized uvular approximant [ʁ̃ˁ]. /ʟ/ and its gradated counterparts come from a merger of Proto-Idavic *l, *ʕ, and often *q.

Stress

Stress is always initial, ignoring derivational prefixes.

Gradation

There are 2 gradation grades in Netagin morphology, respectively termed weak and strong. Gradation is purely morphological and is no longer phonologically conditioned: different forms of a word may require different grades, and a form may be marked through gradation alone.

Simple consonants

Weak f b th d z ḑ y ģ ƛ λ j g s ș σ h m n l r y w
Strong hb hp hd ht hḑ hț hģ hc̦ hλ hξ hg hc ss șș σσ hh bm dn ll rr yy ww

Historical geminates

Geminates historically arose from historical nC, /ʔ h/ + C, C + /ʔ h/ → C: sound changes, before gradation became morphologically significant. In Modern Netagin geminates almost always turned to preaspirated or preglottalized stops, except after resonants.

Weak hb hp hd ht hḑ hț hģ hc̦ hλ hξ hg hc ss șș σσ hh bm dn ll rr yy ww hl hr hy hw
Strong hbb hpp hdd htt hḑḑ hțț hģģ hc̦c̦ hλλ hξξ hgg hcc s's ș'ș σ'σ h'h bmm /b:m/ dnn /d:n/ gll /ɢ:/ drr /d:ɾ/ gyy /ɟː/ gww /gːʷ/ hll hrr hyy hww

Clusters with resonants

  • R = resonant /m n ʟ r j w/
  • X = obstruent

  • F = fricative /s ʃ ɬ/

Phonotactics

Initial sC clusters are valid in names and loans from Shalaian.

Morphology

Nouns

Netagin has singular, dual, and plural numbers, and animate and inanimate genders. Some inanimates end in -ă, which is cognate to the Shalaian honorific suffix -er. They have three cases: nominative, accusative and genitive. Netagin nouns take the definite article pă and the specific article nă.

Soft-stem noun: reaıct /riekʰtʰ/ 'nightingale'
case singular plural
nominative reaıct /riekʰtʰ/ reaıwt /riexʷtʰ/
accusative reawt /reəxʷtʰ/ reawtă /reəxʷtʰə/
genitive reaıwt /riexʷtʰ/ reaıwtĭg /riexʷtʰɨk/

Hard-stem noun: șuarbm /ʃuəɾəpm/ 'stone'
case singular plural
nominative șuarbm /ʃuəɾəpm/ șuarm /ʃuəɾəm/
accusative șuarm /ʃuəɾəm/ șuarmă /ʃuəɾəmə/
genitive șuarm /ʃuəɾəm/ șuarmăg /ʃuəɾəmək/
