Verse:Irta/Talma

Crackfic Tricin's Talma (Irish: Poblacht na Talma) is a unified republic, and Irish is the dominant language in it with English a common second language. Southern and eastern parts speak Idavic, and some pockets speak Korean, Japanese, Eevo, Qazhrian, Judeo-Anbirese (assimilated Jews speak Irish and English), Ăn Yidiș, and Slavo-Windermere.

Languages

Talman English

Basically our Hiberno-English but with more Eevo syntax

Talman Irish

Our Cork Irish, with slang terms from Talmic/Lakovic and topic-prominence (from Eevo, Korean and Japanese) in broad speech

Mise tá claíomh (agam) 'I have a sword' (Standard Tá claíomh agam)

Tusa 's claíomh atá (agat), mise 's iachár atá (agam) 'You have a sword, I have a Talman machine gun' or even Tusa 's claíomh, mise 's iachár

Accent

Broad Talman Irish is influenced by Eevo, Qazhrian, Korean, and Japanese phonology; for example broad L is pronounced like Eevo L. Cultivated Talman Irish sounds identical to our conservative Cork Irish.

Talman Korean

largely spoken in Ainbíor with an Irish/Tiberian Hebrew-esque accent; all words have weak final stress

Talman Korean has no dueum beopchik; a phonemic split of rieul into ɾ/ɫ̪/ɺʲ/l̠ʲ from the influx of loans (native broad rieul is ɾˠ, slender rieul is ɺʲ, geminate rieul is ɫ or l̠

"and" for nouns is always -wa, never -kwa

Initial m n are not denasalized.

Lots of calques and loans from Irish (in addition to English and Hanja) in formal language; borrows Latin and Greek words via Irish. Code switching with Irish and English is common

should sound stilted in a way somewhat different from English literally translated into Korean does

ㄷ ㄸ ㅌ are dental with ㅌ sometimes [θ] and the voiced allophone of ㄷ sometimes [ð], vowel system is /i e E a O o u ɨ/; /ə/ is a loan phoneme used to borrow Irish and English schwa

Borrows English and Irish /ɪ ʊ/ as /e o/

Initial, and non-initial post-vocalic, ㅋ ㅌ ㅍ > [x θ f]; voiced ㄱ ㄷ ㅂ > [ɣ ð v], [v] merging with historical lenited ㅂ in ㅂ-irregular verbs; ㅊ becomes [ʃʰ]?

Thus the consonantal phonology looks like:

• k⁼(ʲ) kʰ(ʲ) ɣ(ʲ) x(ʲ) ŋ(ʲ)
• ts⁼(ʲ) tsʰ(ʲ)
• t̪(ʲ) t̪ʰ(ʲ) ð θ n(ʲ)
• p⁼(ʲ) pʰ(ʲ) v(ʲ) f(ʲ) m(ʲ)
• ɾ ɺʲ ɫ̪ lʲ
• sʰ ʃʰ s ʃ h ç

[moˈðɨˑn iŋgaˈnɨˑn θɛɔˈnaˑl̠ʲ t̪⁼ɛvuˈθɔ tsʰajuɾˠovɨˈmʲɔ kʰɨ tsʰonɔmˈwa kʰwəl̠ʲieiˈsɔ t̪ʰoŋd̪ɨŋaˈða]

Talman Japanese

written in our modern Japanese orthography

Talmic and Lakovic

All Talmic and Lakovic languages are endangered or extinct in Talma except:

• Eevo
• Slavo-Windermere
• Judeo-Anbirese

These are spoken by highly religious groups.

Eevo

A minority language in Sceola, mainly spoken/used in liturgy by Ngedhraists
