For now, this is another new lang which I'm calling for now Project 4-and-2; plainly because I'm working with an experiment of four laryngeal/syllabic consonants and two non-syllabic consonants as an entire sound inventory. Not exactly the most reasonable idea, I admit, but let's say I'm more interested in the forms that come up rather than any "success" of the experiment itself.
Without further ado, here's my sound inventory:
/h j w ʕ/
/n t/
Syllable structure:
CS(C)
Here's some allophony (hopefully the syntax works here):
Code: Select all
/w/
-> [kʷ~gʷ~ⁿgʷ~m] / #_
-> [u] / C_(C)%
-> [o:] / C_(ʕ)
-> [b] / n_
-> [kʷ] / ʕ%_
-> [pʰ] / h%_
/j/
-> [ts~dz~ⁿdʑ~ɲ] / #_
-> [i] / C_(C)%
-> [e:] / C_(ʕ)
-> [tsʰ] / h%_
/t/
-> [t] / #_
-> [p] / _w
-> [d~ɾ] / C_C
-> [β] / C_w
-> [s] / _y
-> [Tʰ] / _,h
/h/
-> [ç] / #_y
-> [h~∅] / #_
-> [ːʰ] / {hjwʕ}_%
-> [ə] / C_(C)%
-> [a~w~j] / _,ʕ
/ʕ/
-> [∅~ŋ] / #_
-> [ː] / {hjwʕ}_%
-> [a] / C_(C)%
-> [ʔ] / {hjwʕ}%_C
/n/
-> [n] / #_
-> [m] / _w
-> [ɲ] / _j
-> [ɴ] / _#
