Gaelic + Inuit + Hivantish + English

Greekify Irish slender consonants

Inuit words subject to Irishy sound changes

word order is more flexible than in Old Irish

Capital: Daomaist, from Hivantish "Dymuwistu" <- dhuHmo-h2westu

Preserves Old Irish /θ ð/

"What if Old Irish became a Balkan sprachbund language, losing infinitives etc."

Morphology

Nouns

Preserves a lot of case inflection in suffixed indefinite articles, via a suffixed áirithe "certain"

Possessive suffices from OIr emphatic clitics? "his" is (lenition)--san

nom sg. ech áirithe > echar 'a horse'
gen sg. eich áirithi > eichri
prep sg. euch áirithiu > echru
acc sg. euch n-áirithe > echna
nom pl eich áirithi > eichri
gen pl ech n-áirithe > echna
prep pl echaibh
acc pl echu h-áirithi > echuhar

Definite nouns get the OIr definite article mutations (with no preposed article) + -a(i)s:

nom sg t-echsa 'the horse'
gen sg eichse
prep sg echsa
acc sg n-echsa
voc sg a eich!
nom pl eichse
gen pl n-echsa
prep pl echaibhse
acc pl h-echus
voc pl a echu!

nom sg túathar
gen sg túaither
prep sg túaithri
acc sg túathnai
nom pl túathár
gen pl túathna
dat pl túathaib
acc pl túathár

Verbs

Preserves object prefixes but simplifies them; only conjunct and prototonic forms are used for most verbs

no-m-(L), no-t-(L), n-a-(N), no-s-(N), no-n-, no-bh-, no-s(N)- (no- can be replaced with another preverb e.g. ní-)

Get object incorportaion from focused objects?

-The neuter gender and dative plural ''-aibh'' is preserved but there are fewer declension classes. The nominative plural of masculines and feminines is uniformly ''-(a)i'' /ɪ/ (by Slavic influence) and plural of neuters is usually ''-a''.
-The indefinite article is ''den'' (from ''den'' 'from the' + Slavic *edìn 'one'); it or lack thereof is part of the case/number/gender declension.
