Flewtish (endonym: Flutwa [ˈɸlutwa] or Flutwas glung [ˈɸlutwas ɡluŋ]) is a language spoken by the majority of the population in much of Northwest Russia and the Karelia region. Flewtish is a language isolate, meaning it does not (with our current knowledge) genetically relate to any other language on the planet.

Flewtish is typologically agglutinative, using almost exclusively suffixal affixation to indicate number, tense, person and case. Flewtish is partially a null-subject language, depending on whether the subject can be implicitly indicated with certainty or not. Due to the sprachbund effect, Flewtish is an SVO language, but more archaic dialects are actually SOV ones.

Etymology

Flutwa is an evolution of Proto-Flewtish */ɸʲlitʰa/, meaning "Blooming" or "Saturated". The reason for this name is that the regions that Flewtish speakers settled were far more greener and developed than their previous homeland.

History

Flewtish is possibly a Paleo-siberian language that through migration reached it's current territory. This can be further supported by similarities with the Yeniseian languages, like being a tonal language and having vowel length distinction.

Orthography

Flewtish officially is written with the Cyrillic script as law enforces it in Russia. However the language is biscriptal and hence, it uses both the Latin and Cyrillic scripts to be written. Following are both scripts for writing the language:

Cyrillic Script for Flewtish
Аа /a/ Бб /b/ Вв /v/ Гг /ɣ/ Дд /d/ Ее /e/ Зз /z/ Ии /i/ Іі /ɨ/ Кк /k/ Лл /l/ Мм /m/ Нн /n/ Оо /ɔ/ Өө /θ/ Пп /p/ Рр /r/ Тт /t/ Сс /s/ Уу /u/ Фф /ɸ/ Ьь (See below) Хх /h/ Цц /t͡s/ Чч /t͡ʃ/ Шш /ʃ/


Latin Script for Flewtish
Aa /a/ Bb /b/ Cc /θ/ Dd /d/ Đð /ð/ Ee /e/ Ff /ɸ/ Gg /g/ Hh /h/ Ii /i/ Yy /ɨ/ Jj /ɣ/ Kk /k/ Ll /l/ Mm /m/ Nn /n/ Oo /o/ Pp /p/ Rr /r/ Ss /s/ Tt /t/ Uu /u/ Vv /v/ Ṽṽ /w/ Xx /ʒ/ Zz /z/

*'Ьь' usually acts as a modifier letter on the preceding letter. Eg: Дь becomes /ð/, ВЬ becomes /w/, and Аь becomes /ɐ/.

The letters correspond always to their pronunciation. The orthography is considered a phonetic, as opposed to deep orthographies like French's.

Stress

Flewtish is a stress accent language, and the stress is fixed to the final syllable of each word.

Sample text

The lion and the boar (Aisop)

English:

On a summer day, when the great heat induced a general thirst, a Lion and a Boar came at the same moment to a small well to drink. They fiercely disputed which of them should drink first, and were soon engaged in the agonies of a mortal combat. On their stopping on a sudden to take breath for the fiercer renewal of the strife|, they saw some Vultures waiting in the distance to feast on the one which should fall first. They at once made up their quarrel, saying: "It is better for us to make friends, than to become the food of Crows or Vultures, as will certainly happen if we are disabled."
