Old Netagin is a triconsonantal language inspired by Tiberian Hebrew. It was the language of the Netagin Republic in Ancient Talma and lent some loans to other Talman languages such as Tíogall (though Modern Tíogall is still about as pure as German).
Phonology
Consonants
Begadkefat: /t k b d g/ > /θ x v ð ɣ/ after a V
Vowels
The vowels written with an acute accent can be analyzed as long vowels or tense vowels; one or more of both pronunciations may be realized simultaneously.
| Front | Central | Back | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Close | i, í /i(ː)/ | [ɨ] | u, ú /u(ː)/ |
| Close-mid | é /e(ː)/ | ó /o(ː)/ | |
| Open-mid | e /ɛ/ | ă /ɜ/ | o /ɔ/ |
| Near-open | á /ɒ(ː)/ | ||
| Open | a /a/ |
Front vowels /i e ɛ/ are centralized to [ɨ ɘ ɜ] after pharyngealized or uvular consonants.
Vowels are nasalized before /ʕ/, /ħ/ and /ʁ/.
Stress
In native words primary stress can only fall on the ultimate, or less commonly the penultimate syllable.
