Skyrdagor: Difference between revisions

Skyrdagor's main vocabulary is traced back to Proto-Fargulyn, a language that had some areal words shared with Proto-Samaidulic and also shows some very early loans from Proto-Lahob. Some examples of words shared with Proto-Samaidulic include Proto-Fargulyn *q'elesi (> Sky. ''kilys'' [kiɮɯʃ] "apple") = Proto-Samaidulic *kʷelesi (> [[Qualdomelic|Qua.]] ''cwalăš'' "apple", [[Brono-Fathanic|Bro.]] ''koresy'' "apple"), and also basic states such as "to sleep" - PFg *wepn (> Sky. ''vam'' [vam]) = PSam *wepn- (> Qua. ''vẹfn(oț)'', Bro. ''van(osy)'') and even words as basic as "son" - PFg *kamɨjuq (> Sky. ''humyg'' [xumoː]) = PSam *ka-mijuq (> Qua. ''camiuq'', Bro. ''kaimoa'').<br/>Very early Proto-Lahob borrowings include, for example, PFg *laq'obir (> Sky. ''lokjur'' [ɮɒ͡oc͡çur] "farmstead") from PLB *ɬakʰober "group, tribe, village, Lahob", PFg *juzjum (> Sky. ''juzsn'' [juʒn] "flower") from PLB *juɟom (whence e.g. [[Chlouvānem|Chl.]] ''yujam'' "lotus flower", meaning that the Skyrdagor words ''juzsn'' and the Chlouvānem borrowing ''judzsam'' "lotus" form a doublet), or PFg *onáj "island" (> Sky. ''ynej'' [ɯneː] "closed area, cell") from PLB *ʕanaj (whence e.g. Chl. ''lanai''). Some Proto-Lahob borrowings are also shared with Proto-Samaidulic; the latter word, for example, is also reconstructed as PSam *anaj, whence Bronic ''anea'' "island".
