Bjeheondian English

VSO exclamations common; certain Bjeheondian calques; varying levels of Windermere and Shalaian phonetic influences

Shalaian accents sound closest to what we know as native English

Bjeheondians sometimes reduce vowels to /ə/ even when native accents don't, like sometimes /səmtəms/; they also generalize plurals of nouns ending in f and th, the latter pronounced /dz/.

Other common phonetic features are a total merger of voiced th and d and th-stopping. R was historically uvular in broad Bjeheondian accents and alveolar in cultivated accents but this is reversed in modern times.
