'''{{PAGENAME}}''' ({{PAGENAME}}: ''an Tìogall'' /ə ˈtiːɡəʟ/ or ''an ŋgàth dTìogall'' /ə ŋa:θ ˈdiːɡəʟ/ 'the {{PAGENAME}} language'; English: /ˈtiːgəl/ "teagle") is a [[Talmic languages|Talmic language]] inspired by Irish and German. Tìogall is a pluricentric language with a high degree of dialect diversity (namely, it is an official language in two countries, the peninsular [[Verse:Duìnidhe|Duìnidhe]] with more dialect diversity and the larger [[Verse:Neoibhir|Neoibhir]] with less dialect diversity). With 125 million speakers it's the largest Talmic language in terms of number of speakers. {{PAGENAME}} began as a thought experiment posing the question "What would Irish look like with umlaut instead of palatalization?". Like most modern Talmic languages, {{PAGENAME}} is a descendant of [[Thensarian]]. It is spoken on the west coast of the continent of Cuadhlabh on Hussmauch.

===Thensarian to Old Tìogall===

Thn. ''a e i o u y ā ē ī ō ū ȳ ae ao ui ia iā iō iū'' > OBh ''a e i o u a à è ì ò ù uì ae ao oì ea eà eò iù''

In stressed syllables: ''a e i o u à è ì ò ù ae ao eà eo iù oì uì'' >

*before a syllable with no e/ē/i/ī: ''a ea io o u à èa ìo ò ù ae ao eà eò iù oìo uìo''

*before a syllable with e/ē/i/ī: ''ai ei i oi ui ài èi ì òi ùi aei aoi eài eòi iùi oì uì''

*''èa, ò, òi'' > ''ia, ua, uai''

===Old Tìogall to Modern Tìogall===

**''i(o)'' > /ɪ/; ''ì(o) oì(o) uì(o)'' > /iː/

**''eà(i) eò(i) iù(i)'' merge into ''à(i) ò(i) ù(i)'', preventing further palatalization; /c ɟ cʰ ɟʰ/ become phonemic.

**''ai ài ei èi oi òi ui ùi aei aoi uai'' > /ɛ eː ɪ iː œ øː ʏ yː eː øː yə/

''ètaoin'' (Standard) Tìogall is defined by a set of grammar rules, rather than by an accent (as long as it is intelligible to the majority of Tìogall speakers). Certain defined phonemes and phonetic processes can be observed within Standard Tìogall which in turn display diaphonemic variation based on the accent region.

The following describes Tìogall as spoken in ''Smeola'', the capital of Duìnidhe which is often called the "Duìnidhe accent".

L-colored vowels and diphthongs result from combinations of any vowels or diphthongs with the back liquid /ʟ/ (phonetic values are as in Smeola Tìogall):

*/iː/ is close front unrounded [iː] ([[Media:Tigall_ì.ogg|listen]]).

*/iə/ is phonetically [iə] ([[Media:Tigall_è.ogg|listen]]).

*/iʟ/ is phonetically [iːɤˁ] ([[Media:Tigall_ìl.ogg|listen]]).

*/yː/ is usually close near-front rounded [y̠ː] ([[Media:Tigall_ùi.ogg|listen]]). Its rounding is compressed.

*/yə/ is phonetically [yə], [y̠ə] or [ʏə] ([[Media:Tigall_òi.ogg|listen]]).

*/yʟ/ is phonetically [y̠ːɤˁ] ([[Media:Tigall_ùil.ogg|listen]]).

*/ʉː/ is somewhat retracted close central rounded [ʉ̠ː] ([[Media:Tigall_ù.ogg|listen]]). Its rounding is protruded.

*/uə/ is phonetically [uə] or [ʊə] ([[Media:Tigall_ò.ogg|listen]]). It is a monophthong [uː] for some speakers.

*/eː/ is close-mid front unrounded [eː] ([[Media:Tigall_aè.ogg|listen]]).

*/eʟ/ is phonetically [eːɤˁ] ([[Media:Tigall_aèl.ogg|listen]]).

*/øː/ is close-mid near-front rounded [ø̠ː] or mid front rounded [ø̞ː] ([[Media:Tigall_aòi.ogg|listen]]). Its rounding is compressed.

*/øʟ/ is phonetically [ø̠ːɤˁ] ([[Media:Tigall_aòil.ogg|listen]]).

*/ɵː/ is somewhat retracted close-mid central rounded [ө̠ː] ([[Media:Tigall_aò.ogg|listen]]). Its rounding is protruded.

*/aː/ is central unrounded [äː] ([[Media:Tigall_à.ogg|listen]]).

*/ɑʟ/ is most often phonetically a diphthong [ɑɤˁ] or [äɤˁ] ([[Media:Tigall_àl.ogg|listen]]).

*unstressed /əwə/ > ''-ù-'' /ʉː/

Tìogall is subject to a fair amount of accentual and dialectal variation due to the number of speakers.

===Scàdar accent===

This dialect is most prominent in and around the òc Eo (/ɵːk ɵː/ 'white rock', English: /ˈoʊkoʊ/) metropolitan area in Neoibhir.

===Cnòlta accent===

Spoken in the largely rural areas of Cnòlta (/ˈknɔːˁtə/, English: /kəˈnɔːltə/ or /kəˈnoʊltə/) in southeastern Duìnidhe.

===Còdha accent===

Còdha (/ˈkɵːðə/, English: /ˈkoʊðə/) is a Duìnidhe accent. It is non-lambdic.

Spoken in the mountainous regions of Tumaca /tʊməkə/ in Duìnidhe. (Influenced by "hyper-Old Tìogall")

non-lambdic, L-colored vowels similar to Còdha

===èise accent===

èise (/ˈiːsə/) - Neoibhir

Nouns are classed into two genders, masculine (''reist ŋullàn'' /ˈɾɪst ˈŋʊʟaːn/) and feminine (''reist dhèàn'' /ˈɾɪst ˈðeːaːn/); they are aksi inflected in two numbers (singular and plural) and three states (indefinite, definite, construct).

The comparative form of adjectives is formed with the suffix ''-anna'' /-ənə/. The comparandum is marked with the particle ''rà'' /ɾaː/ 'than'.

*Thn. ''molynis'' 'I thank' > OTig ''molain'' (prototonic); Thn. ''tir molyn'' 'I do not thank' > OTig ''tì·mlu'' (deuterotonic)

*Cf. Thn. ''armolynis'' 'I pursue' > '' ar·mluin'' (deuterotonic); Thn. ''tir armolyn'' 'I do not pursue' > OTig ''tìr·mol'' (prototonic)

The present tense is conjugated as follows. For some verbs, umlaut occurs with certain affixes. The participle affix ''-adh'' is deleted after verb stems ending in ''-th'' or ''-dh'': ''mìodh hù'' < {{recon|''mìodadh hù''}} 'he gives'.

|{{abbtip|idadh hàr|''ididh hàr''}}

To form the imperfect tense, the particle {{abbtip|[qʷˁeː]|''grè''}} is used before the verb, ''-e'' is added to the stem, and the verb undergoes eclipsis.

*''grè more nà'' 'I used to thank'

*''grè :ngide hì'' 'she used to lie'

The suffix ''ⁱ-ìn'' is added to the stem to form the past participle. The subject is preceded by an ergative marker ''lu''. For the impersonal the subject is simply omitted. This is the standard way of forming the preterite in ètaoin {{PAGENAME}}.

:'''''Kèsìn ruk lýn.'''''

''grò'' + past participle. This tense uses ergative alignment like the preterite.

*''grò mørìn nà'' 'I had thanked'

*''grò idìn hì'' 'she had lain'

*6: ''stàmh'' /staːw/

*8: ''lòidh'' /ʀøːð/

*11: ''eàichimh'' /eːʃəw/

Numbers must be used with singular nouns. The numbers ''kiew'' and ''stàw'' come after the noun, while other numbers come before it.
