This page covers the evolution of a Polish-Carpathian based Romance language with a large amount of Slavic influence and a divergent evolution both in vocabulary and grammar. It covers the evolution in stages, with both the phonological and morphological covered.

=Evolution of Sabian=
==Vulgar Latin to Proto Sabian: 400 AD - 700 AD==
This page covers the potential evolution of a Vojvodina-based Romance language with a large amount of Slavic influence and a divergent evolution both in vocabulary and grammar. It covers the evolution in stages, with both the phonological and morphological covered.
====Consonants and Clusters====
==Vulgar Latin to Proto Sabian==
===450 AD - 700 AD===
This stage covers the transition from Vulgar Latin to Proto-Sabian. It covers the period from the end of the Roman empire, the occupation of the Avars, and the arrival of the Proto Slavs before their integration within the Sabian region and minor migrations to the Zemljask regions to the north.
====Consonants====

= Phonology and Orthography of Sabian=
The phonology and orthography of Modern-Sabian as finalised in the year 1934 after a period of standardisation following the end of WW1. The 1934 orthography effectively served to regularise the mediaeval spellings of Sabian words, in turn based off of mediaeval Polish, and as such is similar to modern Polish orthography while retaining many archaic features that have since been lost elsewhere.
===Consonant Phonology===
* The consonant on the left is "hard", while the consonant on the right is "soft". If only one consonant is present, it is probably only soft.

# these voiced consonants are allohphones of their voiceless counterparts, and so are written as though they are voiceless.
# v, sz, rz are used for native words, and w, sch are used for loans from Polish and German in most cases except loans that have been nativised
# rz is used if the [ʃ] comes from [rʲ], while sz and sch are used in all other situations.
# as /s/ becomes [z] between vowels, the sequence /ss/ is used to represent [s] between vowels

* the sequences [ɔn], [ɔ:n] and [ɛn], [ɛ:n] can be written as /ą/ and /ę/ respectively if they originate from Polish or German.
* for sequences of two vowels that occur in diaresis, a (silent) -h- is inserted between them, providing that they are the same vowel, e.g. /gé:.ɛ/ <gehe>
