Inspired by Kannada and Marathi
French words are spelled etymologically


Some nativized (''tadbhava'') Sanskrit words
=Vinnish=
*ṇnima [ɽ̃n̪imɐ] "full moon" <- *puṇnima <- Sanskrit pūrṇimā
"Vinskt mâl"
*pyaḷda "forest" <- ati-vṛddha "overgrown"
*mhoṇa "monk" <- śramaṇa


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
zh for r from PGmc z? both r and zh can sound like the Greenlandic r


separate words for numbers from 1 to 99

Palkhan borrows more from Sanskrit (even some derivational affixes) than Pandoga

==Mixolydian==
=Esperanto=


From PIE; t d dh -> tʰ d t
Some differences between Esperanto as we know it and Lõisian Esperanto:


Inspirations: Baltic, Albanian
* Pronouns are mi, ci, ri, ni, vi, ili, oni


PIE: h₂áu̯ei̯ h₁i̯osméi̯ h₂u̯l̥h₁náh₂ né h₁ést, só h₁éḱu̯oms derḱt. só gʷr̥hₓúm u̯óǵʰom u̯eǵʰed; só méǵh₂m̥ bʰórom; só dʰǵʰémonm̥ h₂ṓḱu bʰered.
* Transitive verbs in transitive-intransitive pairs are always marked with a causative; the passive for these verbs is used for changes of state.
*Proto-Mixolydian (tentative name): avī yasmī wilnō ne estʰ, sa ečʰwą̄s derčitʰ. sa girrų wačą wečetʰ, sa mēǰą parą; sa manį āčʰu peretʰ. (to thematize)
**Old Nomadic Mixolydian (with Grimm): avī yasmī wilnō ne est, sa ešwą̄s deršiθ. sa girrų wačą wečeθ, sa mēǰą parą; sa manį āšu pereθ.
***Levantine Mixolydian: contributed some words to English
**Classical Mixolydian ("tentum" language, with Grassmann): avyō, kʰō vilnǭ ne tare, retʰvą̄s vaide, mą girrų vaθą veθei, mą mēðą perą veθei; tʰu mą nērą kʰirsvą perei. ''Greek transcription'': αϝιώ, χώ ϝιλνώμ νε ταρε, ρεθϝάμς ϝαιδε. μαμ γιρρυμ ϝαϸαμ ϝεϸει, μαμ μέζαμ περαμ ϝεϸει, θυ μαμ νέραμ χιρσϝαμ περει.


===Orthography===
* -icho is standard for specifically masculine nouns.


A native logography in addition to the Greek alphabet
* more noun cases (ergative at least)
 
===Verbs===
between Greek and Lithuanian
 
mediopassive marked with -i
 
===Declension===
*wolf: wilkʰas, wilkʰą, wilkʰasya, wilkʰai, wilkʰātʰ, wilkʰai; wilkʰą̄s, wilkʰās, wilkʰą̄, wilkʰamas, wilkʰamis, wilkʰasu
*seed: tanō, tanǭ, tanōs, tanōi, tanōtʰ, tanōi; tanōs, tanǭs, tanōwą̄, tanōmas, tanōmis, tanōsu
*chair: selwą, selwą, selwasya, selwai, selwātʰ, selwai; selwō, selwō, selwą̄, selwamas, selwamis, selwasu
*i-stems (extremely uncommon)
 
The neuter gender merges into the masculine in Classical Mixolydian. Levantine Mixolydian around the 10th century is about as analytic as Hindi.
 
===Morphosyntax===
 
Mixolydian has the accusative and infinitive construction found in Latin and Ancient Greek, and in Classical and Levantine Mixolydian the accusative and infinitive construction by itself is the most common way of expressing the optative.
 
===Lexicon===
ρεθϝας means 'horse' in Classical and reθwas means 'wheel' in Nomadic
 
smas/ainas, dwā, tʰrīs, kʰetʰwār, pʰenkʰe, swečʰs, septʰį, ačtʰau, nawį, dečʰį
-> Classical mas/ainas, dvā, tʰrīs, ketʰvār, penkʰe, vetʰs, septʰį, attʰau, navį, detʰį
 
Levantine: en, dva, θri, xadar, feng, xweš, seft, ašt, nò, deš (20: wišt?)
 
dūras: faint, soft (drifted from "distant")
 
leupyą (''Nomadic''): hobby (calqued from Old Togarmite)
 
===Levantine Mixolydian===
 
some kind of "Balkan Sprachbund Hindi"? (Balkan grammar and Hindi syntax)
 
Old Nomadic Mixolydian had a very simple declension system, merging the accusative with the nominative and the locative with the dative:
 
nom, gen, dat, abl
*wilxa, wilxas, wilxē, wilxaθ; wilxas, wilxa, wilxam, wilxam
*tano, tanos, tanī, tanoθ; tanos, tano, tanom, tanom
 
Levantine Mixolydian went even further, dropping the -a ending and gender agreement:
 
nom, obl
*wilx, wilxe; wilxas, wilxam
*tano, tani; tanos, tanom
 
The oblique case is used as an ergative in perfect tenses.
