'''Ciêng''' (''KEE-əng''; natively: /kīəŋ/, [[Windermere]]: ''brits Cieng'') is a tonal [[Ashanic languages|Ashanic]] language spoken in Tumhan, inspired by Vietnamese and Welsh. ("What if Vietnamese were rhotic?") It is closely related to [[Windermere/Classical|Classical Windermere]] but is not a direct descendant of it.

TODO: cluster reflexes


Waaay before Grimm's law, thus b p were still voiced and tenuis stops > p + low resp. high tone classes

Khmmerization BEFORE tone split

Ultrashort vowels cannot carry independent tones
