'''Habesīnan''' is an Indo-European language, spoken in Ethiopia in [[Lõis]]. In modern times it's mostly used as a liturgical and classical language, with the majority of the population speaking [[Togarmite]].

tones:
*no marker = no tone letter

*` = s
*double vowel with the second getting ´ = v
*double vowel with the second getting ` = j
*h = g
*´' = d

Proto-Palkhan -> Palkhan has an almost consistent stress shift to the second syllable causing the first syllable to get elided; this creates the retroflex-dental clusters and wreaks havoc with the morphology if there happen to be prefixes
