'''{{SUBPAGENAME}}''' (''Anbirif'' /anbiriv/) is a major [[Talmic]] language descended from [[Tigol]], inspired by Korean (especially Sino-Korean), Swedish, Etruscan, and the Slavic languages. Compared to its relative [[Xjiaolan]], it has a relatively conservative verb system. On the planet of [[Verse:Tricin|Tricin]] ({{SUBPAGENAME}}: ''i Smaouch'' /i smaukh/), it is an analogue of German in terms of influence. {{SUBPAGENAME}} is the official language of the Talman nation [[Verse:Tricin/Anbir|Anbir]] and of former colonies in Cualuav and Txapoalli; it is the largest Talmic language in terms of number of speakers, though most modern {{SUBPAGENAME}} speakers know [[Häskä]]. Like most modern Talmic languages, {{SUBPAGENAME}} is a descendant of [[Thensarian]]. Like with German, there is a Standard {{SUBPAGENAME}} and various regiolects.

Thanks in large part to the printing press, Modern {{SUBPAGENAME}} rapidly gained prominence over a larger area in Northern Talma and came to serve as a lingua franca for northern mainland Talma. Today, {{SUBPAGENAME}} still enjoys status as a "cultured" language and is one of the most widely taught foreign languages.

==External history==
{{SUBPAGENAME}} began as ''Tíogall'', which was a thought experiment posing the question "What would Irish look like with umlaut instead of palatalization?". For a while it developed as an Irish-German hybrid. At one point I decided to remove all "giblangs" from modern Tricin, or languages with the aesthetics of one natlang (unless the premise was funny, like [[Snachian]] or [[Clofabosin]]). Since Tíogall was basically an Irish with German characteristics, it was abandoned. I still felt that Talmic languages needed somewhat more internal diversity (in particular, a "German" analogue to Skellan's "English"), so I decided to revive this project as "Anvyrese" or "Anvirese". One thing that was still nagging me was that the grammar was still too German for a country with a Germany-like history, so I decided to swap a minority Tigolic language "Tumaka" with "Anvirese", and this is the result.

*let's see how korean i can make anbirese
*Initial /sC/ clusters do not exist in Anbirese except in foreign names like ''Skeucis'' (they changed to initial tense stops). Speakers depending on accent may pronounce them as tense stops, pronounce them as clusters or epenthesize them.
*Dueum beopchik varies by accent; initial ri/rj-, r-, ni/nj- are conserved or altered. However, some words like ''i'' 'not' have it everywhere.
*obey < TELIC + 'listen' (like in Þiús'k)
*Conjunctions that take pronominal suffixes, like Arabic ''ʔinna'' and ''ʔanna'' (or maybe Bhlaoighne)
*Numbers: cia, tzyth, nesch, doiph, solitzh, stav, roith, loith, barph, cheour, echi, crai
*Swadesh list
*Tigol > {{SUBPAGENAME}} sound changes
**How do syllabic resonants arise?
**e.g. imm- > syllabic nasal
**car > cr 'person'
**mh > fh
*''gysph'' = narrow
*Some dialects are more Sino-Koreanish (more broad slender)
**a e i o u > y jy ji u u
**ai ei oi ui > e ji e i
**á éa í(o) ó ú > a je ji o ou
**ái éi ói úi éu > ai ji oi oui jaou
**eá eó eói iú iúi > ja jo joi jou joui
**ae ao aoi > e aou oi
**ia ua uai > jia oua oui
**jV changes the ''t'' series to the ''tz'' series - leaves other consonants unchanged in standard {{SUBPAGENAME}}

plus, {{SUBPAGENAME}} has "accusativus in infinitivo"!
le could be omitted before indefinite nouns in modern {{SUBPAGENAME}}
but Maith Sivy always used it
that's one way of distinguishing archaic from modern {{SUBPAGENAME}}
another could be the use of the pronoun 'fiar'
which in modern {{SUBPAGENAME}} was completely replaced with 'scid'
ca-ephyth = of that
ca-leth = that (acc.)
ca-dzeth = in that; there
ma-, ca-, ta-, m-compounds: this, that, what, which
in that house = ca-dzen souar
or "dze cin souar"
both are valid
the first being more archaic

===Consonants===

*'''kj/tj gj/dj thj nj''' /tɕ d͡ʑ ɕ ɲ/

*r l j /r ɴ̆ j/


At word-final position, the voicing distinction in unaspirated plosives is lost, and unaspirated plosives are unreleased.
[w] is an allophone of hard /v/ after consonants.


Some consonants can be syllabic, namely ''m n ng l r''.
/t d tʰ s z n/ are dental(ized).


===Vowels===
===Vowels===
i eu u e/ae eo a o /i ɨ u e ə a o/
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].
 
===Stress===
Stress is always initial.
===Prosody===
 
==Morphology==
===Mutations===
Unlike [[Tigol]], Tumaka has no mutation; instead, former feminine nouns often begin in an aspirated consonant, as a result of lenition after the definite article. (cf. [[Þwmaca]], where former feminine nouns begin in different consonants than former masculine nouns.)
 
===Nouns===
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. ''cythr'' 'flower', ''cythryr'' 'flowers'; ''chyvn'' 'woman', ''chyvnyr'' 'women'.
 
The definite article is always ''i'', or ''in'' before a V or after a preposition.
 
Possessive suffixes: mar-na, mar-s, mar-ou, mar-i, mar-yth, mar-ym, mar-fe, mar-yc, mar-ur (or mar-thur)
 
Plural: mar-ph-yna, mar-ph-s, mar-ph-ou, mar-ph-i, ...
 
''i marna'' = my tree
 
''i cythr suvn-yna'' = my beautiful flower
 
===Adjectives===
Adjectives do not inflect at all.
 
Adverbs derived from adjectives are unchanged (as in German).
 
===Verbs===
{{SUBPAGENAME}} 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 formed by adding a prefix, which causes the verb stem to take the conjunct form. However, the perfective is sometimes marked with ablaut. Most {{SUBPAGENAME}} verbs thus have two principal parts: imperfective and perfective.
 
An example of the aspect allomorphy:
 
*'to tell': imperfective ''boŋi'', perfective ''simŋi''
*'to eat': imperfective ''dzecai'', perfective ''ŋci''
 
Past tense: usually ''-n'' (can be syllabic) (but sometimes ablaut?)
 
*'to tell': imperfective ''boŋin'', perfective ''smŋin''
*'to eat': imperfective ''dzecain'', perfective ''ŋcin''
 
===Copula===
{{SUBPAGENAME}} is zero copula in the present tense; ''fou'', ''si'', ''jy'' and ''thar'' can be used as present tense copulas.
 
The past tense copula is ''lathn'' and the infinitive is ''fath''.
 
===Pronouns===
na, scid, fou, si, jy, mech, tid, scid, thar = I, you, he, she, it, we (exc), we (inc), you, they
 
There is also an archaic 2nd person singular pronoun ''fiar'' 'thou'.
 
===Prepositions===
*le = accusative (le + i > len) (only used with definite nouns in modern {{SUBPAGENAME}})
**''le-na, (le-s,) l-ou, l-i, l-eth, l-em, lef, lec, lur''
*dze = in, at (dze + i > dzen)
**''dze-na, (dze-s,) dz-ou, dz-i, dz-eth, dze-m, dzef, dzec, dzur''
*e = to, for
**''ena, (ephys), ephou, ephi, epheth, ephym, efe, ephyc, ephur''
 
===Conjunctions===
==Syntax==
{{SUBPAGENAME}} is particularly rich in non-finite subordinate clause constructions, which may be used when English uses subordinate clauses with finite verbs.
===Negation===
The negation particle is ''da'' (preposed) for imperatives and ''tzin'' (preposed; from Tigol *ter ní- 'not once') otherwise.
 
===Questions===
Wh-words are fronted. Yes-no questions use a question particle ''sm'' (< Tigol ''is'' question particle + ''imb'' complementizer) before the sentence.
 
===Wishes/Jussive===
Wishes can be formed by using ''toumid'' (< Tigol ''tuabh mít'' 'who will grant') before a verb in the non-past tense.
 
===Word order===
{{SUBPAGENAME}} word order is primarily SVO, but may be VSO in more archaic or literary usage.
 
===Accusative with infinitive===
The accusative particle ''le'' can be used to introduce the subject of a dependent clause. The verb of the dependent clause is preceded by the particle ''e'' 'to'.
 
:'''''Na docn le mrothr e slav eph Intar.'''''
:1SG think.IPFV ACC apple-PL INF good to I.
:''I think Intar likes apples.''
 
===Preposition + verb clauses===
A preposition may be used with a verb followed by a possessive suffix indexing the subject, as in Hebrew and Irish.
 
An example with ''dze'' 'at':
:'''''dze argiarna ar i loichou'''''
:at keep_watch.IPFV-1SG on DEF stuff-3SG.M
:''when I was keeping watch on his belongings''
