Verse:Irta/Judeo-Mandarin/Ballmer

Ballmer Ăn Yidiș ( 'n Yidiș oy Bală Mur or 'm Balămuriș) originates from the Eastern US city of Ballmer (from בּאַלא מאָר Bală Mur 'Big Village', Ḷbāḷdimōra in Palkhan; same location and same local pronunciation /boəlmər/ as our Baltimore).

Ballmer Ăn Yidiș sounds a bit like a Satmar Yiddish accent in Ăn Yidiș, but unlike Standard Ăn Yidiș it lacks "umlaut" of Proto-ĂnY *a before slender consonants, hence MIr baile > bală as opposed to Standard ĂnY belă. It has lost gender and mutations, but h- is added to vowel initial plural nouns and adjectives.

• ă > o > u; oa > oy; ea > e > ey > ay > aa
• u, î, ü > often i
• /r/ is uvular
• ie = ii, ua = uu

mi, ti for Standard ĂnY me, tü

ă often omitted in conjunctions; ă syncopes a lot

The present tense auxiliary תּאָ is pronounced tu when stressed (when a subject pronoun follows or when used as "yes") and t' or tă when unstressed (when a noun follows).
