There are six major dialects of Avendonian. Central Avendonian (or '''midio''') is considered the standard language, and it is the language most of the author's work is based upon. The main features of the other five dialects will be discussed in the following sections. | |||
====Alpine dialect==== | |||
The [[:Category:Alpine dialect|Alpine dialect]] ('''avendoniano alpino''' in Avendonian) is characterized by the partial application of the [[w:High German consonant shift]]. This results in words like '''{{term|trincare}}''' (central '''{{term|drincare}}'''), '''{{term|esare}}''' (central '''{{term|etare}}'''), etc. | |||
====Burgundian dialects==== | |||
Both Burgundian dialects feature historical diphthongs not longer extant in other dialects, where they merged with another vowel. [[w:Proto-Germanic language|Proto-Germanic]] ''*ō'', ''*eu'' which merged with {{angbr|u, i}} elsewhere, remained {{angbr|uo, ie}} in the Burgundian dialects – for instance, '''{{term|buoce}}''' and '''{{term|friesare}}'''. They also share the presence of {{angbr|y}} (/{{IPA|y}}/), descended from earlier ''*iu''; '''{{term|dydere}}''' (central '''{{term|didere}}'''). | |||
The [[:Category:High Burgundian dialect|High Burgundian dialect]] ('''avendoniano ocburgundico''') features the {{Abbtip|High German consonant shift|HGCS}}. [[:Category:Low Burgundian dialect|Low Burgundian]] ('''avendonian lagburgundico''') does not. Instead, masculine o-stem nouns and regular adjectives drop their final '''-o''', except in those words whose Proto-Germanic ancestor stem ended in /{{IPA|w}}/. | |||
Those words are: | |||
