Romanization challenge thread

Substantial postings about constructed languages and constructed worlds in general. Good place to mention your own or evaluate someone else's. Put quick questions in C&C Quickies instead.

/b d g gʷ/
/s x xʷ h (hʷ)/
/r l j w/
/m n/

/i i: u u:/
/a a:/

/ui iu/
/ai au/

Looking for a good Classical European-esque orthography.

Notes:
- Velar+w does not contrast with labiovelar, but the labiovelar is best analysed as a unitary phoneme, not a cluster
- I'm undecided on /hʷ/, but leaning towards having it as a single phoneme, not a cluster, like labiovelars.
- /n/ is [ŋ] before a (labio)velar.

Sample from gen:

Could be improved using proper breathings instead of the ugly ͱ, iota subscript on the diphthongs and not using the diaresis wrong.

Voidakseen omistaa kiinteää omaisuutta Ahvenanmaalta tulee henkilön olla ruotsia puhuva Suomen kansalainen, joka on asunut maakunnassa vähintään viisi vuotta.

Have I posted Miar here yet?

/pʰ tʰ tsʰ tɬʰ tʂʰ tɕʰ kʰ qʰ/
/b d̪ d(z) dɮ ɟ/
/pʼ tʼ tsʼ tɬʼ tʂʼ tɕʼ kʼ qʼ ʔ/
/m n̪ n ɳ ɲ ŋ/
/r̪ r ɽ j w h/

/ɽɽ/ [ɖ:], non-ejective stops can be realized as fricatives unless they're geminated, dentals are allophonically pharyngealized

/a æ e ø ɜ o i y ɨ u/ + nasalization

Vowel harmony: /æ e ø ɨ u/~/ɜ i y i o/, /a/ is neutral. There's also consonant harmony: dentals and retroflexes vs. alveolars and palatals, but that's only one syllable in scope. (So you can have tsVkVt, but not *tsVt or *tsVtsVt. /j/ is neutral.)

Miar (assuming that the unmarked t is dental and tɕ is in fact [c], as they are in the example, and also the existence of [g].)

How does the vowel harmony even work? It seems completely arbitrary.

It used to be height harmony: e a o vs. i ɨ u, plus length. (ɨ was probably more like schwa.) Then there was a vowel shift: short /a e o u/ fronted to /æ ɪ ø ʏ/. Then ɨ ɨː u: lowered, probably through an intermediate diphthong step for the long vowels: ɨ ɨɑ̯: uɒ̯:. ɨ ɨɑ̯ > ɜ ɑ:, uɒ̯: monophthongized to o (actually more like ɒ, so it's just losing the diphthong onset) and that pushed o: up to u. Somewhere in there, ɪ got pushed to ɨ to fill the gap left by ɨ-lowering.

Code: Select all
