Scots Norse: Difference between revisions

 The rules for stress are very slightly more complex than they were in Old Norse, but not by much.
 :Stress always goes on the left-most syllable possible. When there are vowels with a grave, stress goes to the first one, skipping over all vowels without one. (so ''sudhrø̀jr'' is stressed on "ø̀")
+===Mutation===
+Since Old Norse, initial consonant mutations have began developing. Scots Norse has several forms:
+:radical (basic)
+:lenited
+:nasal
+:soft
+these can be shown quite well through pronouns + lemma, as a pronoun exists that causes most of them (except soft).
+Take these following examples:
+:''thù tàlir'' /ˈxu ˈto.ʎɪθ͇/ — "you speak"
+:''e h-tàli'' /ˈe ˈho.ʎɪ/— "I speak"
+:''ha n-tàlir'' /ˈha ˈno.ʎɪθ͇/— "he speaks"
+Take notice of how the orthography for mutation takes after Irish, ''not'' Scottish.
