Phonology

Consonants

• p ~ b (word medially, may become phonemically β but realised as all sorts of things?)
• t ~ d (word medially, may become -ð- (th?))
• th (þ/θ?) (word medially, may become -ð-) - may be pronounced word initially as a dental plosive.
• k ~ g (word medially generally becomes g)
• l m n r (? Angloësque?) y w (dunno about h but probably not).

reusing iski word (fish) > iki/ika + -(i)(l)la for "at" + anglicisation –> "eckella" (as though it were a South Australian place name).

(ithki > iki through assimilation).

Ikilla = place of the fish.

-itha = plural marker? (since I have a thing for that recently)

ikithilla = place of the fishes (probably redundant, plural marker maybe will only be used for emphasis?)

Final vowels probably elided depending on the speaker ala many Australian aboriginal languages. Thus ikitha > /egeð/.
