Judeo-Anbirese is a Talmic language spoken by Jews who immigrated early to Talma; it's a descendant of Middle Anbirese. It's natively called ŏ Jŏhuδing 'the Jewish language'.

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 Djaelθŏvŏr ŏ m-prongŏ djŏn sjesŏnd 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
  • t and t' for unmutated tet and tav?

Phonology

Consonants

cc c gg g ŋ ŋŋ

  • broad x γ k⁼ g w ŋ (x γ k g w ng)
  • slender ʃ j t̪ʃ⁼ dʒ (sj y tj dj) (Tigol has no slender ŋ)

tt t dd d n nn

  • broad θ ð t̪⁼ d̪ n n̪ˠ (θ δ t d n nn)
  • slender ʃ j t̪ʃ⁼ dʒ n ɲ (sj y tj dj n nj)

pp/f p bb b m mm

  • slender fj vj p⁼j bj vj/-ɲ mj (fy vy py by v/-nj my)

r rr l ll ṡ ss h

  • broad ɾ rˠ w ŋ zero s h (r rr w ng 0 s h)
  • slender ɾ r̝ l ʎ j- ʃ hj (r rj l ll j sj hy)

In sum, the Judeo-Anbirese consonant phonology is:

  • Velars: k⁼ g x γ w ŋ (in Hebrew orthography q g(dag) k(rafe) g(rafe) w ʕ)
  • Palatals: tʃ⁼ dʒ ʃ ʒ j ɲ ʎ (in Hebrew orthography ṣ dz š z y n' l(dag))
  • Alveolars: s n ɾ rˠ r̝ l (in Hebrew orthography s n(rafe) r(rafe) r(dag) r' l(rafe))
  • Dentals: t̪⁼ d̪ θ ð n̪ˠ (in Hebrew orthography ṭ d t(rafe) d(rafe) n(dag) )
  • Labials: p⁼ b f v m (in Hebrew orthography p b p(rafe) b(rafe) m)

Vowels

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

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

Hebrew reading

Judeo-Anbirese is among the more conservative Hebrew reading traditions in Crackfic Irta/Tricin. It distinguishes all 7 stressed vowels of Tiberian Hebrew and retains all 6 begadkefat consonants, and dageshed nun, lamed and resh are retained as distinct. The emphatics tet and kuf merge with nonemphatic tav and kaf as in our Ashkenazi Hebrew.

/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

/ʔ b v g ɣ d ð h w z ħ tˁ j k x l m n s ʕ p f sˁ q r ʃ t θ/ = [ʔ b v g ɣ d ð h w dʒ h t= j k= x l/ʎ m n/n̪ˠ s ŋ p= f tʃ= k= ɾ/rˠ ʃ t= θ]
