Judeo-Galoyseg is the vernacular of Bjeheondian Jews in Crackfic Tricin. It's identical to canon Galoyseg except with Hebrew and Crackfic-Bjeheondian loans (Albionian, Wiebian and Windermere) but its historical evolution is different. It descends from a divergent dialect of Celtic which was spoken near the Levant and took part in an ā > ō shift (at around 800 BC) and the sprachbund ā > å change which affected Palestinian Aramaic (and Tiberian Hebrew). This has resulted in a spelling which often seemingly treats PCel as Hebrew treats PSem: Proto-Celtic *t that became /θ/ or postvocalic /d/ in pre-Galoyseg becomes tav rafe (which might have represented /tsh/), Proto-Celtic *ā becomes cholam, and Proto-Celtic *a that became Old CF Galoyseg *ā becomes qamatz. Hebrew loans are always written fully vocalized.
