Re: Øynduyska - A Germanic Language
Just wondering if you have any diachronic stuff on this written out anywhere; I can see some of the things that happened but it would be cool to see the whole journey from Proto-Germanic. Unfortunately, the diachronic stuff is at present just a massive, convoluted, loophole-blighted SCA sound chang...

Re: Sound Change Quickie Thread
Okay. Note that this language starts out without an /s/. 1.) /k/ > /tʃ/ before . 2.) /tʃi/ > /tʃ/ before another vowel *thousands of years pass* 57.) /tʃ/ > /ts/ > /s/ unconditionally. 58.) /k/ > /c/ > /tʃ/ unconditionally. 59.) /q/ > /k/ unconditionally. So...Albanian? (but seriously, I might stea...

Re: Sound Change Quickie Thread
One other thing to keep in mind is that most sound changes are conditional, so these are likely to be merely the most common outcomes. Even in PIE the satemization rule had quite a few exceptions. I was actually about to type out an example of a shift Ive done right now, but I think it's not one of...

Re: Sound Change Quickie Thread
So, I'm trying to make a language family along the lines of Indo-European or Afroasiatic, and I was trying to think of a couple mega-unstable phonemes for the proto-lang. Could y'all tell me which of these are plausibly unstable? /ɬ/ the Magnificent: It is of course alongside a /l/ and a /ʎ/, but I ...

How realistic are these? None are in the same lang, if that helps.

retraction of stress from a low tone (didn't this happen in Slavic?)
