'''Evonish''' (subject to constant renaming) is a constructed language (for a possible constructed world) mostly limited to my day dreaming and notebooks.  It is a-posetriori and influenced primarily by (West) Germanic, (Insular) Celtic, and Russian. Its phoneme inventory is based on [[w:General American pronunciation|General American phonology]]. The wordstock has many influences of [[w:Germanic languages|Germanic languages]], [[w:Celtic languages|Celtic languages]], [[w:Slavic languages|Slavic languages]], and some [[a priori]] vocabulary.
Imagine Germanic tribes such as the Anglo-Saxons and the eastern gathering together with Celts and sailing the Baltic Sea. They landed near modern day Saint Petersburg where they established their own nation-state, absorbing some northern Russian groups.

==General information==
==Objectives==
'''Evonish''' is a Germanic language. It is similar to Middle Evonish, however the two languages split on 25 May, 2012 and will probably differentiate more over time. It is from the Evonen language branch. Some elements are A-priori, however, it is also slightly influenced by Japanese, Irish, and Russian.
*to create a poetic, flowing language
*to preserve old Germanic grammar
*to preserve Celtic vocabulary
*to create a left-hand friendly writing system


==Phonology==
==Phonology==
Æ-Tensing, a process by which the vowel /æ/ is raised and lengthened to produce /æ̝ˑ/ before a nasal consonant, is in free variation and is merely an allophone. Iotation may feature in the language for a form of inflection. Palatalization occurs in /sk/ consonant clusters rendering them /ʃ/.
===Consonants===
===Consonants===
Affricates were present in [[Middle Evonish]], but by Modern Evonish, they have all become velarized or palatalized.
Parenthesis indicate allophones.

===Palatalization===
''(this is subject to change)'' <br>
The voiceless velar fricative "x" was palatalized to the voiceless palatal fricative "ç" completely by Middle Evonish, creating related pairs of words with k and c.


==Writing==
==Writing==
===Allophones===
The writing system is based on a Latin alphabet, which represents the scope of the romance influence on the language. Additionally, the alphabet is greatly modified from the traditional Roman variant with a handful of relatively unique characters. The language may be written from right to left, so long as the capital letter at the beginning of the sentence is at the write, and the form is consistent throughout. The exact phonetic equivalents can be found in the tables above. A tailed z gradually developed to represent the zh sound, now represented by the character ʒ.
n is /ŋ/ before k or g
See [[IPA for Evonish]]. It is a 28 letter alphabet. It is as follows: <br>
a, p, b, c, j, t, d, þ, ð, e, f, v, k, g, i, y, h, l, m, n, o, r, s, z, u, ƕ, w, x. <br>
Vowels have multiple pronunciations, but consonants do not.


===Diacritics===
The thirty-two letter alphabet is a modified Latin alphabet that contains the following bookstaves:
''(Work in progress...)''
*æ, a, b, c, d, ð, e, f, g, h i, j, k, l, m, n, ŋ, œ, o, p, q, r, s, t, þ, u, v, w, x, y, z, ʒ.
Certain umlaut letters will be used . These can be entered with an international keyboard, or copied.
*á - /a/
*é - /e/
*í - /i/
*ó - /o/
*ú - /u/
*ý - /ai/


===Digraphs===
The archaic characters are ƕ(hwair) and ƿ(Wynn), which represent q and w respectively. The [[IPA for Varevon]] is sorely out of date, and is subject to change soon. Umlauts are written with a diaeresis/umlaut, and doubled vowels indicate long vowels or gemination.
The umlauts can be rewritten as the standard vowel with an e after. This was originally considered archaic as the diaeresis replaced this practice. With the rise of technology, however, this has become common use again when the diaeresis is not available. "Hr" which appears in the initial position of some words is pronounced /ɾ/, although it is oft mistakenly pronounced /hɹ/.
===Punctuation===
It is vastly similar to English punctuation, but the differences are evident:
*Relative clauses are set off with commas.
*Prepositional phrases are generally place before what they modify.
*Declarative sentences end in a period.
*Interrogative sentences end in a question mark.
*Exclamatory sentences end in an exclamation mark.
===Word Order===
This could be classified as grammar, but for the sake of evening out space, it will be here.

==Pronouns==
==Pronouns==
===Personal===
Personal pronouns are the most complex. The sole relative pronoun is [TBD].
{{PAGENAME}} personal pronouns feature a combination of the Germanic t-stem, h-stem, i-stem, and s-stem in third person. Suppletion between accusative and dative cases in first and second plurals occurred from originally distinct dual and plural pronouns, hence there are the Cs in the accusative of first and second person plurals. Fourth person is the other stuff.

===Relative===
==Determiners==
The sole relative pronoun is ðe, however, relative clauses are set off with commas.
The negative article is understood as indefinite; there is no negative definite article so the verb of the sentence is negated instead. Determines are key to distinguish to distinguishing gender. the E at the end of some determiner plurals is an ancient pluralizing form.

====Nouns====
Nouns in Evonish are declined to indicate their grammatical role in the sentence. Their conjugation depends upon case, gender, and number. Gender is a special factor in Evonish; a word does not determine a gender, rather a selected gender determines a different word. For example, a stone in common gender may be an igneous rock while a stone in neuter may be a sedimentary rock. Possessive and genitive ''are'' not considered distinct cases. The plural genitive ending is used in compound words much like kennings in the Old English and Old Norse languages.

====Adjectives and adverbs====
Adjectives decline only in an attributive position, they do not in a predicate situation. Cf. [[w:German language|German]] ''die schwarze Magd'' vs ''die Magd ist schwarz''.
Some adjectives undergo umlaut, such as old, ölder, and öldest.


Many Evonish adverbs are not derived from any other word class.

Certain adjectives decline only in an attributive position; they do not in a predicative position. Cf. [[w:German language|German]] ''die schwarze Magd'' vs ''die Magd ist schwarz''. Some adjectives undergo mutation. Furthermore, there are many common affixes which form adjectives, whose list will be available in time.

====Grammatischer Wechsel====
The language is descended from Proto-Germanic. Thus it includes Grimm's Law and Verner's Law; however, it retains a unique variant, as does all modern Germanic descendants. It's variant of these two laws creates different sound changes within verb paradigms known as the Grammatischer Wechsel.
Commas indicate the second phoneme occurs in the case of Verner's Law. Phonemes in parenthesis were allophones and innovations in their respective languages.

====Umlaut====

===Nouns===
Their declension depends upon case and number. The plural genitive ending is used in compound words much like kennings. The umlaut occurs in some plurals, in some cases, and sometimes in whole words. The vocative, instrumental, and locative forms disappeared since Proto-Germanic. A pseudo-vocative form is made with the clitic O' (from Celtic) and uses the zero conjugation.
====Strong====
The vowel a became associated with plural and e with singular. Vowel dropping may be apparent spoken, but it is not written, such as Engel not declining to Eng'la.

====Comparisons====
!Weak - Name (''name'')
Comparative forms use the particle "ðann" followed by the noun(s) being compared to. <br>
!Singular
Depending on that noun's case will determine which noun is first making the comparison. <br>
!Plural
For example: "He jumped quicker than '''I'''" would yield "than I [jumped]" (in this example the compared noun is in the nominative). <br>
"He jumped quicker than '''me'''" would yield "than [he jumped] me" (in this example the compared noun is in the accusative).
===Articles===
All articles are irregular from the standard determiner declension(below).

===Verb===
Verbs or verb forms in quotes are either an English equivalent or a work in progress. The infinitives of the frequentative form are -eln and -ern; these can be made of many verbs. The infinitive form in Evonish is the lemma form of the verb, meaning it is the one used in dictionaries. The primary aspects are simple, perfect, progressive, habitual, and inchoative. Simple aspect is used for:
*Stative verbs
*Gnomic aspect
Further aspects are formed by nonstandard ways or purely by context.
====Copula====
There will be both copular and semi-copular verbs. The copula is the most inflected and suppletive verb in the entire language.

==Syntax==
===Comparisons===
Comparative forms use a particle followed by the noun(s) being compared to. Depending on that noun's case will determine which noun is first making the comparison. These can imply drastically different meanings, for example:


=====Frequentative=====
*"He ate pie quicker than '''I'''" would yield "than <u>I ate pie</u>" (in this example the compared noun is in the nominative).
This is the only aspect formed with special conjugations. These conjugations will be provided soon, the infinitives of these are -eln and -ern.
*"He ate pie quicker than '''me'''" would yield "than <u>he ate me</u>" (in this example the compared noun is in the accusative).


====Future tense====
===Word Order===
Future is generally expressed by giving a time, or is implied in context with the simple present tense. There are auxiliary verbs that are standard as well. These are conjugated for the indicative mood
The standard word order is V2; when a phrase, clause, adverb, or adjective precedes the subject for emphasis, the second argument is always the verb. This can be demonstrated in the somewhat archaic or fanciful use "''From the ground'' '''grew''' the tree." Word order is flexible due to conjugations however the primary form for independent clauses is Subject-Verb-Object. Questions without interrogative pronouns(yes or no) have verb first and subject second.
{| border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="wikitable article-table" style="width: 500px; "
Dependent clauses have a special word order:

*Subject
! scope="col" style="width: 90px; text-align: center; "|Singular
*Indirect Object

*Direct Object
|-
*Instrument
! style="text-align: center;"|First Person
*Verb.
| style="text-align: center;"|shyl
Relative clauses follow the same pattern as independent clauses when appended to independent clauses and follow the dependent pattern when appended to a dependent clause.
| style="text-align: center;"|shylen
|-
! style="text-align: center;"|Second Person
| style="text-align: center;"|wilt
| style="text-align: center;"|willeþ
|-
! style="text-align: center;"|Third Person
| style="text-align: center;"|gé
| style="text-align: center;"|géþ
|}


====Negation====
Use the prefix ne- on any verb's form to imply negation. Alternatively add the particle "nict" after the main verb, this is especially useful when a different prefix is already attached to the verb.
