/t͡s/ > /θ/ is attested as a sound change, but is /θ/ > /t͡s/ attested at all? (Perhaps via way of /θ/ > /t͡θ/?)

I love Germ-langs so I can't wait to see more of this

It is a Hungarian thing, yes. Its why <s> is /ʃ/ Probably at one point this phoneme was apical, i.e. [s̺]. According to Wiki, "In the Middle Ages, it occurred in a wider area, covering Romance languages spoken throughout France, Portugal, and Spain, as well as Old High German and Middle High G...

s > ʃ tʃ > s Huh? Doesn't t͡ʃ → s usually happen by t͡ʃ → ʃ → s? How would that co-occur with s → ʃ? Or would this be by t͡ʃ → t͡s → s? I still wouldn't buy t͡ʃ → t͡s but s → ʃ. In fact, s → ʃ ubiquitously feels weird. But is that a Hungarian thing? It is a Hungarian thing, yes. Its why <s> is /ʃ/ ...

I ate from an Italian restaurant and now I want to make a romlang again. Thinking of rebooting the Pannonian language I had years back. The Pannonian area has an interesting opportunity for a romlang — it was Romance speaking up until about ca. 400 when it succumbed to outside invasion. Linguistical...

Rediscovered this. Impressive, better than I did trying to make my Western Norse flavored conlang. I especially like how you regularized the -na plural from the genitive. As you may know this was really only in Icelandic (I think the continental Norse languages used -ja there.) Thank you [:D] . Do ...

Mariupol Gothic doesn't have a real indefinite article, though you could use the numeral "ită" meaning "one" after the noun. This then is reduced like a clitic. C.f. mannătă "one man" (opposed to many men, or this man specifically) Definiteness on the other hand is mark...

An interesting idea, but not quite what I'm looking for. What I am thinking is that a successful Norse colony in Vinland potentially spurring earlier European colonization of the Americas. Perhaps Basque and French colonists colonize other parts of eastern canada followed by England and Scotland. Cu...

Thinking again of a romlang, except perhaps nestled somewhere in North Italy, amongst all those other weird and wonderful Italian dialects there. Key feature might be a shift of stress to the initial syllable due to widespread pretonic syncope. A Finnic lang where inessive and illative merge as well...

Interesting. Is there any influence from Old Norse or Danish, considering they were also in the area?

I’m really enjoying this Gothic language and I’m excited to see what you do with the aspectual system. I did something similar with Gutisk ( https://cbbforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=254551#p254551 ) but I must admit I had difficulty actually utilizing it much in practice. Thanks Spanick! I really liked...

The Mariupolian Gothic perfective (perfect aspect) is marked with the prefix гъ gă /ɦə/. It's use mimics the Russian по prefix. Example: гънемън gănemăn /ɦəˈne.mən/, "to have take" or glossed more appropriately, PRF-take-INF. I have a lot more to say about this, but i need to do a bit more...

I cant seem to find an answer to this so im asking around, but does anyone know if the Ukrainian dialects in east Ukraine (north of Crimea) share with Russian word final devoicing? I'm aware normally Ukrainian does not, but I'm also aware that the dialect continuum means peripheral varieties sometim...

This is mostly catchup at this point. I've been playing with a bunch of funky sound changes that while diverge from the Crimean Gothic corpus are pretty cool. I may justify these changes as all happening past the 16th century. I can give the more conservative and schwaful 16th century forms if anyon...

Modern Gothic
бреэн brejen [ˈb̥rɛːjən]
verb - to roast

Related to Dutch broeien "to heat up," English brew.

(NB: Thanks Shimo!)

There's very little known about Pictish, so I believe it might be difficult to scrape enough material for a full functioning conlang. Although this hasn't stopped people before from creating conlangs from scarcely known material! So good luck to you.

I want to talk about Mariupol Gothic nouns, particularly its animacy system that I started to develop. Anyway, brief explanation of the Mariupol Gothic cases before I move on to the good stuff. The nominative generally marks the subject of a sentence. The accusative marks the direct or indirect obje...
