Sound Changes
Consonant Mutations
As with all modern Celtic languages, Everish makes extensive use of initial consonant mutations to help signal grammatical and syntactic information. Everish has three main mutations: lenis (međol), spirant (cravol) and nasal (truinol). There is a fourth type of mutation called aspiration (huizol) in which word-initial vowels take an h'- before them.
The changes caused by the mutations are summarised in the following table.
| Radical | Nasal | Lenis | Spirant |
|---|---|---|---|
| p /p/ | b /b/ | f /f/ | |
| t /t/ | d /d/ | z /θ/ | |
| c /k/ | g /g/ | h /x/ | |
| c /t͡ʃ/ | g /d͡ʒ/ | h /ʃ/ | |
| b /b/ | m /m/ | v /v/ | |
| d /d/ | n /n/ | đ /ð/ | |
| g /ɡ/ | ng /ŋ/ | ||
| g /d͡ʒ/ | ñ /ɲ/ | y /j/ | |
| y /j/ | ñ /ɲ/ | ||
| m /m/ | v /v/ | ||
| ñ /ɲ/ | n /n/ | y /j/ | |
| rr /r/ | r /ɾ/ | ||
Lenited g disappears before a consonant, becomes w before words in go-, gu-, goo- and becomes h- before other vowels, e.g. gre "flock" → i re "his flock", gur "man, husband" → i wur "his husband", geryadour "dictionary" → i heryadour "his dictionary".
Examples:
- Lenition: i benn "his head", de dat "your dad", i gi "his dog", er vanon "the lady", du Dhin Edin "to Edinburgh", war hat "on a road", i wrek "his wife", a vamm! "mum!".
- Spirantisation: i fenn "her head", tri that "three dads", teyr chath "three cats".
- Nasalisation: naw manon "nine ladies", in Nin Edin "in Edinburgh", mu ngat "my road"
- Aspiration: i h'ewidir "her uncle", an h'oungorn "our unicorn".
