'''Old Anrish''' (i thumma n-Annoroch, ''Runic:''{{Rune|᛬​ᛁ·ᛏᚢᛘᛘᚭ·ᚾ·ᚭᚾᚾᚢᚱᚳᚼ᛬}}) is a Germanic language created by [[User:Ceolsige18|Aireadna Emmrais]] to be a medieval language spoken by the inhabitants of the [[Verse:Annoroíed|Anrish Islands]] (ed Annoroíed, ''Runic:''{{Rune|᛬​ᛁᚦ·ᚭᚾᚾᚢᚱᚳᛁᚦ᛬}}), an archipelago emerging from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockall_Basin Rockall Plateau].  
'''Old Anrish''' (en thomma n-Annoroch, ''Runic:''{{Rune|᛬​ᛁᚾ·ᛏᚮᛘᛘᚭ·ᚾ·ᚭᚾᚾᚢᚱᚳᚼ᛬}}) is a Germanic language created by [[User:Ceolsige18|Aireadna Emmrais]] to be a medieval language spoken by the inhabitants of the [[Verse:Annoroíed|Anrish Islands]] (ed Annoroíed, ''Runic:''{{Rune|᛬​ᛁᚦ·ᚭᚾᚾᚢᚱᚳᛁᚦ᛬}}), an archipelago emerging from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockall_Basin Rockall Plateau].  


The language, while ultimately [[:w:Germanic languages|Germanic]], has been influenced by [[:w:Celtic languages|Celtic languages]] during an extended period of contact as the Anrish people migrated from the Gallo-Germanic confederation of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgae Balgae] to south Britain and later fled to Ireland at the wake of the Roman conquest. Many characteristic features of Brittonic and [[:w:Goidelic languages|Goidelic]] languages were shared with the Old Anrish language.

===Etymology===
===Etymology===
The name "Anrish" is derived simply from a combination of the Anrish endonym [[Contionary:Annor#Anrish|Annor]] + -ish in English. Similarly, Annoroíed is derived from a compound in Anrish of [[Contionary:Annor#Anrish|Annor]] + [[Contionary:#Anrish|oíed]], translating  to "the Anrish islands".

==History==
Old Anrish was affected by a series of phonological changes that radically altered its appearance compared with Proto-Germanic and older Germanic languages. A list of the most important changes is (in approximate order):
*wu> *ū. This must have been a feature of the Proto-Germanic dialect of the Anrish people before influences from Brittonic, where *ū> ī, and also precedes *kw> p (*kwuruz> *kūrj-> cír, not **puir)
*ē<sub>2</sub>,*ī,*ū> ī (*ē<sub>2</sub>hiraz> ígir - maple; *ītraz> íthor - exquisite, precious; *ūdarą> ídra - udder)
Monophthongization of PG diphthongs:

Labiovelars become bilabials:

*ngw> mb (*tungwǭ> tomma - tongue; *slangwijō> laimm - sling);

[[File:Anrish-stopsign.jpg|thumb|An example of Anrish verb morphology; a stop-siğn with "[[Contionary:azé|azeð]]" (stop.2.{{sc|act}}.{{sc|npst}}.{{sc|sjv}}) on it.]]
===Nouns===
===Nouns===
Unlike many other Germanic languages, Anrish has a 3rd-dimensional declension system consisting of a singular/plural number-distinction, a definiteness-distinction, and a case-distinction of only common, dative, & genitive. The properties of noun-declension are then divided into the 3 categories of a-stem, u-stem, & i-stem.
Having undergone the various sound changes described above, the nine declension of Proto-Germanic collapsed into six in Old Anrish with only marginal differences between original u-stems and the merged consonant- and r-stems. A peculiar feature of Old Anrish is the presence of the dual number in noun declension, which was likely lost in the Proto-Germanic stage of the language, only to be borrowed later on from Proto-Celtic.
===Adjectives===
===Adjectives===
Firstly, it must be noted that adverbs are not a separate part of speech from adjectives in Anrish. Most adjectives are sufficized with either ‹-a› or ‹-e›
