Dom·lathṁar (**de-lath-amhar > deltamhar?) in mbróŋae den césand (the "bróngae" met us in the "césand") (direct evolution to Anbirese: **Tŏn:laδvŏr ŏ m-prongae djŏn χjesŏnd, JAnb: זאלתאבאר א מ-בּרוֹעא זאן שייסאנט אַם Jaelþŏvŏr ŏ m-brongŏ jŏn šesŏnd am)

Should be as far from An Yidish as possible -- think simplified Munster Irish rather than simplified Gàidhlig

  • no case unlike Standard Anbirese
  • ae != e unlike in Standard Anbirese
  • marks def direct objects with ljŏ
  • synthetic verbs unlike Ăn Yidiș and Eevo

Phonology

Consonants

Hebrew orthography should represent diachronic voicing mutation with a prefixed aleph resulting in reflexes of ṫ ḋ being spelled אתּ אט

L is still /l/ or /λ/, fortis resonants retained as gemination

θ δ retained from Old Anbirese

cc c gg g

  • broad x γ k= g
  • slender š j ts= dz

tt t dd d

  • broad θ δ t= d
  • slender š j ts= dz

Vowels

The Judeo-Anbirese vowel system is identical to Italian or Tiberian Hebrew (in stressed syllables).

  • אי i (= chiriq) /i/
  • איי e (= tzere) /e/
  • א ae (= segol) /E/
  • אַ a (= patach) /a/
  • אָ ŏ (= qamatz) /O/
  • אוֹ o (= cholam) /o/
  • אוּ u (= shuruq) /u/

Hebrew reading

/u o O a E e i (shva na) (chataf patach) (chataf segol) (chataf qamatz)/ u o ŏ a e ė i ŏ a e ŏ, but some dialects use a instead of ŏ for shva na

/2 b v g ğ d ð h w z H T j k x l m n s 3 p f S q r š t þ/ = [2 b v g g d ð h v dz x t= j k= x l m n s ng p= f ts= k= r S t= þ]
