'''Tumaka''' (''thoumaca'' /tʰumaka/) is a minority Talmic language descended from [[Tigol]], inspired by Welsh, Korean, Etruscan and Romani. It is notable for its relatively conservative verb system.

cemph, tzath, nuthch, doiph, solitzh, ...


==Phonology==

===Consonants===
*c g ch ŋ /k g kʰ ŋ/
*t d th n /t d tʰ n/
*tz dz tzh /ts dz tsʰ/
*p b ph m /p b pʰ m/
*f fh s sh (s̉) (s̃) h /f v~fʰ s z~sʰ ç ɕ h/
*r l i /r l j/


At word-final position, the voicing distinction in unaspirated plosives is lost, and unaspirated plosives are unreleased.

i u ou e y a o /i ɨ u e ə a o/


===Stress===
Mjeolbon 'Melbourne'
Stress is always initial.


==Morphology==
brjedjeong
===Mutations===
Tumaka has no mutation; instead, former feminine nouns often begin in an aspirated consonant, as a result of lenition after the definite article. (cf. [[Eevo]], where former feminine nouns begin in different consonants than former masculine nouns.)


===Nouns===
sjeong - sky, skjeong - to clean
Nouns only have two states (absolute and construct) and two numbers (singular and plural).  The usual affixes are:
*plural absolute: ''-r''
*singular construct: ''-(y)th''
*plural construct: ''-(y)ph''


e.g. ''cuthr'' 'flower', ''cuthryr'' 'flowers'; ''chufn'' 'woman', ''chufnyr'' 'women'.

==Phonology==
===Consonants===
*'''k g ng''' /k g ŋ/
*'''kj/tj gj/dj thj nj''' /tɕ d͡ʑ ɕ ɲ/
*'''t d th n''' /t d θ n/
*'''p b f v m''' /p b f v~w m/
*'''s sj/stj/skj h''' /s ɧ h/
*'''r l -d j''' /ɾ l ð j/


===Verbs===
[w] is an allophone of hard /v/ after consonants.
Tumaka verbs have two tenses (nonpast and past) and two aspects (imperfective and perfective). The imperfective-perfective distinction is characterized by the absolute-conjunct allomorphy inherited from [[Tigol]]. As in Slavic languages, the perfective form is often derived by adding a prefix, which causes the verb to take the conjunct form. Most Tumaka verbs thus have two principal parts: imperfective and perfective.


An example of the aspect allomorphy:
/t d tʰ s z n/ are dental(ized).


*'to tell': imperfective ''boŋi'', perfective ''simŋi''
===Vowels===
*'to eat': imperfective ''cai'', perfective ''iŋcu''
Anbirese has 7 vowel phonemes. ''eu'' /ɨ/ may be treated as a hard counterpart of ''i'' /i/: ''mi ni pi ti ki bi di gi fi vi'' are read as ''mji nji pji tji kji bji dji gji fji vji''. ''si zi li'' are an exception: they're pronounced [ɕi ʑi li].
