Prime Pidgin of Antarctica (PPA) also known as Prime Antarctic Pidgin (PAP) is a future language of the Antarctic Peninsula spoken around the year 2050 and 2250 that began to form between the 2010s and 2020s. Pidgin emerged in response to the growing communication needs of the multilingual community of scientists living in Antarctica, who switched languages interchangeably, with basic English as the common interlingua. As communication grew, the pidgin grew stronger. The first children born on the Antarctic Peninsula adopted PPA as their mother tongue. Thus, PPA began to creolize, creating a compact grammar that transformed pidgin into a functional language, from its origins as a simple sum of words without a stable grammar. PPA was the first stage in the development of the first language family known in the Antarctic continent. | |||
Like all languages it has dialects, but in the pidgin phase these small variations depend on the origin of the speakers, as each speaks his own language, pidgin emerges as a simple language of commerce. Once the pidgin was creolized, the speakers were divided into three dialects or three stratified groups: Nuclear (A), Central (B) and Peripheral (C). | |||
* Group A: nuclear PPA (descendant of late PPA). Late PPA (2150-2250 †) Late PPA (2150-2250) | |||
* Group B: Central PPA (indistinct mixture of groups A and B). Standard PPA (2250 †) | |||
* Group C: peripheral PPA (descendant of early PPA). Early PPA (2050-2150 †) Early PPA (2050-2150) | |||
Simplified scheme and evolution of early PPA and late PPA | |||
As can be seen in the table above, the phonological structures of the original languages were simplified, resulting in the diaphonemic reconstruction known as the simplified scheme. From this simplified scheme, the vocabulary of the early PPA was shaped by phonological changes noted below. | |||
The phonology of the PPA pidgin was initially very unstable, as most words retained the pronunciation of their source language. In the creolization phase, the various sounds will begin to form a coherent phonetic set and sound system for vowels and consonants. During pidgin formation, languages reduced their phonotactics to a minimum to make their messages more understandable. | |||
Phonology of Early PPA (year 2050-2150): The first stable phonemic inventory after pidgin creolization was the result of the unconscious agreement of the first speakers. Initially, after the complex evolutions that the phonemes of the original languages underwent, it consisted of a set of 43 phonemes: 19 consonants, 11 sonorants, 2 approximants, 11 vowels and 3 or 2 tones. The number of tones depends on the analysis. | |||
Phonology of Late PPA (year 2150-2250): Subsequently, the phonemic inventory was halved, merging whole phonemes, eliminating tones and leaving only 21 phonemes: 9 consonants, 5 sonorants, 2 approximants, 5 vowels and 0 tones. | |||
At first, the writing system remained intact, with each word retaining its original spelling as it was written in its language of origin. Later, when pidgin became common, the writing system was reduced to a minimum by eliminating auxiliary signs and all other alphabets, keeping only the basic Latin alphabet of 26 letters. However, words can be written in any of the original alphabets. Possibly, the Latin alphabet continued to be used for quite some time until the appearance of the traditional Antarctic script. | |||
The system of prosody, stress and intonation, was derived from tones. While it is true that the tones were pronounced in the early PPA stage, they were not inherited in either the late PPA stage or the proto-Antarctican stage. Therefore, they will not be transcribed, as they are not relevant to later descendants. | |||
Proto-Antarctic descends from a realignment of the Antarctic sociolinguistic system that occurred around 2250. Proto-Antarctic emerged as a creole of creoles, presumably descended from Central PPA. During this reorganization, words and meanings were reclassified, giving rise to cultured words derived from the Early PPA and vulgar words derived from the Late PPA. | |||
From "Simplified Scheme PPA" to "Early PPA" to "Late PPA" | |||
These lists of sound changes are applicable in order in [http://www.zompist.com/sca2.html|SCA2]. | |||
TO DO | |||
This is a short reminder of the language format policy. | |||
I. Write a short piece stating your intents and purposes when creating the language (Design goal, inspiration, ideas, and so on). | |||
II. Write a short introduction to your language. (Who speaks it? When was it created? By whom? or what? are some example questions that can be answered here) | |||
III. Once done, try making sure everything is properly spelt so as to avoid unnecessary reader fatigue. | |||
Design goals, inspiration, ideas, who speaks it?, when was it created?, where does it come from?, any peculiarities? | |||
Example categories/headings: | |||
Goals | |||
Setting | |||
Inspiration | |||
Phonology | |||
What sounds does your language use? | |||
Here are some example sub-/other categories: | |||
Vowel inventory | |||
Consonant inventory | |||
Syllable structure | |||
Stress | |||
Intonation | |||
Explain the consonant clusters and vowel clusters that are permissible for use in the language. For example, "st" is an allowed consonant cluster in English while onset "ng" isn't | |||
How do the words in your language look? How do you derive words from others? Do you have cases? Are verbs inflected? Do nouns differ from adjectives? Do adjectives differ from verbs? Etc. | |||
Here are some example subcategories: | |||
Grammar | |||
Derivational morphology | |||
An example of a translated or unique text written in your language. Again, it is recommended that you make sure that the phonology, constraints, phonotactics and grammar are more or less finished before writing | |||
Example: Word order, qualifiers, determinatives, branching, etc. | |||
