Tsrovesh

Tsrovesh is a vernacular language spoken in Méich Bhaonnáiqh. It's inspired by Modern Hebrew, Spanish and Georgian. (Idea: "How would a language with a Georgian aesthetic look in Cualand")

Phonology

In Méich Bhaonnáiqh, Tsrovesh is spoken with a Cualand accent. /v/ might sound like /w/ especially following a consonant, e.g. detkvis /det'kwis/. Compare vna /vna/ and lvar /lwar/.

Stress works as in Spanish.

Phonotactics

Tsrovesh phonology is slightly less restrictive than Israeli Hebrew but much more so than Georgian. As in both languages, initial consonant clusters appear frequently in Tsrovesh. Initial clusters of the form l/r + consonant are allowed (Are those really syllabic resonants?). For example:

• cróveš (the name of the language)
• ldag (door)
• šmer (man)
• cnáxat (dream)
• gzin (to shine)
• vna (to live)
• lvar (to play)
• tkéšet (regardless)
• švíli (for me)

Medial consonant clusters are also common:

• ertmá (spider)
• detkvís (limestone)
• opxrám (reed)

The only allowed final clusters are Cs.

Grammar

There are clitic pronouns as in Spanish and Biblical Hebrew.
