Pategian: Difference between revisions

Pategian (nủtufỉxi, from nủtu 'Pategian' + fỉxi 'language') is a Pategic language spoken by the Pategian people in Tricin.

It is inspired by Welsh, Hungarian, and classical IE languages (Latin, Greek and Avestan). Pategian is also analogous to Hungarian from a diachronic perspective: roots that are disyllabic in other Pategic languages are often monosyllabic in Pategian.

Dialects

Pategian has 4 main dialects:

Tảmhẻxra
Fathrẩc
Kẻlet
Ảnfihẻzi

Phonology

Consonants

/p t ts tʃ k b d dz dʒ g f θ s ʃ x h v ð z ʒ m n l r ɬ rʰ j/

Vowels

a â e i o u y ả ẩ ẻ ỉ ỏ ủ ỷ /a ɑ e i o u ɨ a: ɑ: e: i: o: u: ɨ:/

Pitch accent

Old Pategian had a pitch accent in long vowels which could be rising (written ả) or falling (written ạ). The distinction is neutralized in Modern Pategian.

Phonotactics

No initial clusters, geminates allowed

Stress follows the Dreimorengesetz.

Morphology

Poetry

Most ancient Pategian poetry was written in flexible quantitative meters reminiscent of Vedic Sanskrit, but a few authors have experimented with the stricter quantitative meters used in Sowaár poetry. Stress-accentual meters and rhyming unmetric verse, influenced by Windermere poetry, are also common.

-I. Write a short piece stating your intents and purposes when creating the language (Design goal, inspiration, ideas, and so on).
-II. Write a short introduction to your language. (Who speaks it? When was it created? By whom? or what? are some example questions that can be answered here)
-III. Once done, try making sure everything is properly spelt so as to avoid unnecessary reader fatigue.
