It depends on what type of consonant are before it, but mostly it is probably allophonic.

Yeah, gonna work on that part. The language itself it actually began as somekind of offshoot to Iberian, a language which supposedly only had /b k[k] d[d] t[t] g[g]/ as the plosives and only /s[S] s[s]/ as the fricatives... After I posted the last post I patched up the mess a-bit. /b k[k] d[d] t[t] ...

Something to distract my mind /b k[k] d[d] t[t] g[g] |bh[b_h] kh[k_h] dh[d_h] gh[g_h] |bj[b_j] kj[k_j] dj[d_j] tj[t_j] gj[g_j]/ /l[l] r[r/] rr[r]/ /3[T]/ /m[m]/ /s[s]/ /a i e u o ü/ ai ei au ui --- /ai/ can only appear in the first part of a word(the one separated from the next by a consonant), /ui/...

Hudson?

Nort, Pia used to be a common Swedish female name, from Latin pius.

Somebody stop me.... /t[t] d[d] k[k] g[g]/ /c[ts tS] dj[dZ]/ /f[f] v[v] s[s' S s] z[z] zh[Z] xl[K] txl[tK] xg[G] h[h] dh[D] th[T] / /r[r/] l[l]/ /j[j] w[w]/ /tt[t:] dd[d:] kk[k:] gg[g:]/ /e i o u/ ie edit: Yeah morphology: (V)CV /c[ts tS] dj[dZ]/ has a special status as it can also begin a noun, esp...

Isn't that the normal cycle? Isolating - fusional - agglutinating/polysyntetic

I sleepwalked.

brandrinn, you look like what is a called a stereotypical finn here.

Given the time-frame, It is nothing short of amazing how much I understand when reading the Tocharian words given.

Charumerusu.

Shouldn't that be "are there four lanes up ahead?". "Are" because "lane" is in plural, "lanes".

I have had... certain problems in telling apart "bjórs" (of beer) and "brjóst" (breast) after repeating them in multiple goes.

Hooker? Sound like Ima Hogg.

Here's two pdfs I found about Lenca, a comparative lexicon between the two varieties. It is rather poor but the lexicon is different from the other pdf. http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/linguistics-and-philosophy/24-900-introduction-to-linguistics-spring-2004/exams/lencan_solution.pdf The last Lenca http:...

In this case it was actually correct, because everyone in Sweden can speak with these accents.

Being Sweden, I can of course speak with an:
Southern Sweden accent
Northern Swedish accent
Finnish Swedish Accent
Norwegian Accent
Danish Accent
apart from
British English Accent
American English Accent.

In before there are two persons here that both realize that they are related!

Nope, it doesn't exist in Sweden.

In English I would probably call it a curb or a grass-walk. In Swedish it would be "vägkanten", the edge of the road.

^edit: for fun: In Piitish it would be something like "kanta borte veja".

People are still lazy be default.

It's probably common everywhere. People are lazy by default.

It's easier that way. Swedish has taken this to extremes, because both bone and leg are called a "ben". By default it means leg(well, at least in my idiolect), so if you want to say bone and be specific you have to say the equivalent of "body-leg" - kroppsben, or something similar.

Piitish is great when it comes to stuff like this, so here's an other one I found: In some speakers speech the past participle, the neuter nouns definite article and the verbaliser has become the same, -e, and is only differentiated by the words themselves or the word order. Also, where Swedish uses...
