Idheweg/Crackfic: Difference between revisions

'''Judeo-Galoyseg''' is the vernacular of Bjeheondian Jews in Crackfic Tricin. It's identical to canon Galoyseg except with Hebrew and Bjeheondian loans, but its historical evolution is different. It descends from a divergent dialect of Celtic which was spoken near the Levant and took part in both the Canaanite shift (at around 500 BC) and the sprachbund ā > å change which affected Palestinian Aramaic (and Tiberian Hebrew). Pre-Galatian is believed to be the epicenter of said Levantine sound change. This has resulted in a spelling which often seemingly treats PCel as PSem: Proto-Celtic *t that became /θ/ or postvocalic /d/ in pre-Galoyseg becomes tav rafe (which might have represented /tsh/), Proto-Celtic *ā becomes cholam, and Proto-Celtic *a that became Old Galoyseg *ā becomes qamatz. Hebrew loans are always written fully vocalized.
