Taxonomy

This is an unrealistic cladogram of the language family – many splitoffs are just random placeholders and may not exist. The idea is to fill the family with languages like Tibetan, Thai, Laotian, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese, and maybe some Austronesian-wannabes and some IE looking languages (you can see some experimentation of that description going on, but these may not be in the best places possible).

Prim.Yincese (Truj Iŋgliš)

Splitoff #1a (Tü Iŋliš ~> Čüwiŋnit ~> Ciuvénni)



Splitoff #1b (Trü Ĩgliš ~> Trewyo-īglis ~> Savigli? Treiglis?)



Splitoff #1c (Trü Iŋs ~> Sew Ing)


Anc.Yincese
(Truj Iŋglis) (More realistically Trü Iŋs)

Splitoff #2 (Trü Iŋglit, Trü Ingrit)


O.Yincese
(Truj Iŋgris, Iŋlit)

Splitoff #3 (Trü Something)


Mid.Yincese
(Čü Iŋhai, Iŋgai, Iŋli, Iŋhi)

Splitoff #4


EM.Yincese
(Čü, Tsü ___)

Dialect #1 (Jiu Yingxi)



Dialect #2 (Tsü Yinghai)



Dialect #3 (Zhǖ Yǐng)

Possible sound changes (might be in #Old Consonant Inventory, might be after)

  • g later merges with ɦ
  • ɦ and h later merge in some circumstances
  • ɸ and ẘ merge and become h- before back rounded vowels and w- before all others
  • s and z merge
  • j̊ and j merge, except before high-front vowels, where j̊ becomes h-
