Hiberno-Japanese

/tɐnɪðɪʃɪxɪĩ/

A Spanish/Dutch/Tamil accent? d g = /ð x/ (natural evolution, not influenced by another language)

Spoken in future postapocalyptic Apple PIE/Tricin

Influenced by different populations from Apple PIE's North America - Irish, Jewish, Japanese, English, Athabaskan

Japanese relexed with mostly Ăn Yidiș vocab, with jp/eng vocab for technical terms; Practically an Irish+Gaelic Hebrew+Aramaic+Japanese+English creole. The liturgical language of some weird religion? (Shouldn't be Abrahamic but should be influenced by Judaism)

Numbers: ehato, doo, toshii, cheha, kuuji, shesh, sheba, shimone, tesha, ese

Phonology

/a e i o (Japanese u)/ vowel system, based on Ăn Yidiș (coincidentally similar to Bohemian Hasidic Ăn Yidiș, possibly also with qamatz = u) + Japanese (with slightly less restrictions on CV combos); r = /l/

Allows final consonants devoiced in Japanese

VnC consonants realized as nasal vowels: jįshį (3sg animate) etc.

Lects

Quasi-Hasidic Ăn Yidiș based liturgical accent (called Tanidishkį < ĂnY T' ăn Yidiș gîn 'we speak Ăn Yidiș') vs. Irish-based normal accent (called Tągerįgį < Munster Irish tá an Ghaelainn againn 'we speak Irish')?

Liturgical accent is less voiced (voiceless stops more aspirated, b d g not spirantized) and has some vowel changes corresp. to Irish ~ Hasidic vowel changes, like /o u/ = [u y] /ee ie e ej aj/ = [ie ii ej aj aa]
