The '''Talmic languages''' (/ˈtɑːlmɪk/ ''TAHL-mik'') are a subfamily of the [[Quame languages]], originally spoken chiefly in the [[Bitaleta]] region in the planet of [[Verse:Tricin|Tricin]].

** Talmic
*** [[Tigol]]
**** [[Eevo]]
**** [[Anbirese]]
**** Ciètian
 
== Syntax ==
Although all present-day Talmic languages are rigidly head-initial, like Irish, Welsh and Southeast Asian languages, Proto-Talmic was much less so; we know this because different constructions and function words (such as prepositions and verbal morphology) fossilized in each Talmic subbranch.
 
== Morphology ==
Pre-Tigol should keep the most inflections out of the Quame branches, so it was the worst language to Old Irishify
 
Proto-Talmic also had no inclusive vs exclusive we distinction; Tigolic and Qazhric gained the distinction under the influence of Lakovic.
 
==History of Talmic studies==
===History of the term===
The Talmic family was referred to as the "''Kwēm'' languages" (Scellan: ''brits Cłeem'') in earlier Talman works, after the Thensarian word ''cēm'' for "one" inherited in all known Talmic languages at the time. Since contact with other Quihum languages such as [[Naquian]], the term Quame is used for the family that includes Talmic and Naquian.


'''Proto-Talmic''' is a descendant of [[Proto-Quihum]] and the last common ancestor of all [[Talmic languages]] (including [[Thensarian]], [[Eevo]], [[Nurian]], [[Roshterian]], ...). It was a fusional, head-initial language with a number system consisting of singulative, collective and plurative numbers.

The Talman dialects, which eventually became Tigol and Qazhrian, merged alveolar stops into dental stops and completely lost *φ, but Nurian and Roshterian keep the sounds distinct to this day under Idavic influence.

Diphthongs:

====Thensarian reflexes====
*''a e i o u ə'' > ''a e i o u y''
*''ō'' > ''ū'' in word-final syllables; ''ā'' elsewhere (gives too much ''aw'' in Eevo?)
*''ou'' > ''ō''
*''ē'' > ''ī''
*''ei'' > ''ē''
*''oi'' > ''ȳ''
*''ui'' > ''ui''
*''ew'' > ''iō''
*''iw'' > ''iū''
*''ai, au'' > ''ae, ao''
 
==Morphology==
Proto-Talmic had an ablaut system much like that of Indo-European.

====TAM + subject markers====
==Derivational morphology==
Collective subjects agree with singular (subject or object) verb affixes.
===Affixes===
 
Some derivational affixes are:
Root ablaut occurs in some stems in verbs and derived nouns. Ablauting verbs follow one of the patterns below (modulo compensatory lengthening); the present stem is in what is called the "''a''-grade" in Quihum linguistics, and the preterite stem has the "''i''-grade".
*''-nam'' (n.) = patient suffix
 
*''-ā-'' = verbalizer (from ''*-əx̌-''; just for the Proto-Celtic gibbiness)
*present stem ''a'' - preterite stem ''e'' - VN ''a''
**What if ''*-əx̌-'' meant something else in PQuih?
*present stem ''ā'' - preterite stem ''ē'' - VN ''a''
**Roshterian ''-ia-/-i-'' - fossilized suffix in many verbs
*present stem ''o'' - preterite stem ''i'' - VN ''ə''
*''-ākos'' (n.) = verbal noun (from ''*-əx̌-'' verbalizer + ''*-kas'' = older VN suffix)
*present stem ''ō'' - preterite stem ''ī''
**Roshterian ''-iac''
*present stem ''ō'' - preterite stem ''ē''
*''-akt(V)-'' = adjectivizer
*present stem ''oi'' - preterite stem ''ei''
**Roshterian ''-ait''
*present stem ''ou'' - preterite stem ''iu''
*present stem ''au'' - preterite stem ''eu''
