General characteristics

While quite similar to the Dhannic languages in many aspects, there are still very striking differences. One of the most noticeable is the shifting of the unvoiced plosive series into fricatives. Cf. the reconstructed Proto-Lúsanic *pen-ja-r-os: Finian finyarar ('that which is of the bog', Dhannuán cognate penniaras)
