Post your conlang's phonology

[masako]

i lack special characters so my posts take a while

Like capitals?

i am new , as i said my language skills usually are related to orthografy and i'm sorry if i acted brash in any way

Really?

i'm new to this [2 years] and new to conlangs

Then, maybe you should listen to the advice of others?

i thought you already posted an opinion.

Try reading before you post.

[Astraios]

I think he wanted people to compliment his phonology.

My bad.

i lack special characters so my posts take a while

But you're not using any...

i generally do the 'fixing' in the latin form only. i said that because i don't do much besides that , that stems from glossofilia

Explain what you mean by 'fixing'. And please stop writing Greek /f/s with <f>, they're <ph>s in English.

my language skills usually are related to orthografy

How ironic.

and i'm sorry if i acted brash in any way
i'm new to this [2 years] and new to conlangs

New to conlangs and what?

[Xados]

i'm new to looking up languages

and 2. f is used noah webster's reform-i.e. it was spelled like that once and i read ph as /ph/ not /f/

[Xados]

I think he wanted people to compliment his phonology.

no i didn't and I am very sorry for acting brash towards you and everyone

[Drydic]

i mean exactly what i say -have mercy

THERE IS NO MERCY ONLY ZUUL

[Xados]

please tell me you are joking

[Drydic]

WHAT DO YOU THINK

IS IT REALISTIC

[MisterBernie]

You lack a labialised-aspirated-palatalised series, and you expect me to take you seriously? DO YOU, PUNK?!

[ʢʲʷʰ] or gtfo

[Drydic]

WE REQUIRE MORE SYLLABIC GLOTTALS

[Risla]

OKAY I'LL ADD THOSE TOO

[Astraios]

You made me inhale my coffee from laughing.

[MisterBernie]

You made me inhale my coffee from laughing.

Good thinking - that lang clearnly needs [C^ffeinhale]! (Bronchial implosive?)

OKAY I ADDED ALL THAT, I ALSO ADDED LABIALIZED AND PALATALIZED CLICKS

SHOULD I ALSO ADD A VELARIZED SERIES?

[Astraios]

Are you doing this to me on purpose? xD

[Risla]

DOING WHAT TO YOU?

IT IS A PERFECTLY REASONABLE PHONOLOGY

ISN'T IT?

[Astraios]

Yes, yes it is.

[MisterBernie]

Hmm, hmmm, hmmmm, well I find the vowel inventory slightly exaggerated. I'd suggest this:

ɞ ɞˤ

That looks more plausible to me.

[Risla]

OH GOOD, I WOULDN'T WANT TO CONSTRUCT A LANGUAGE THAT'S UNREALISTIC

[Astraios]

Risla and MisterBernie win the thread.

[Drydic]

Can syllabic consonants have creaky voice?

If so,

So let it be written...so let it be done!

[vampireshark]

Here's an idea I've been working with.
Consonants:
p t c k ʔ
ɸ θ s ʃ~ɕ [ç] [x] h
m n ɲ ŋ
l j w
ʦ

([ç] and [x] are special allophones of h)

Oh, and maybe I'll post the phonology and orthography for my old kitchen sink language...

[Risla]

ɞ ɞˤ

That looks more plausible to me.

HM, HOW ABOUT A COMPROMISE LIKE THIS:

i iˤ y yˤ ɨ ɨˤ ʉ ʉˤ ɯ ɯˤ u uˤ
ɪ ɪˤ ʏ ʏˤ ɪ̈ ɪ̈ˤ ʊ̈ ʊ̈ˤ ʊ ʊˤ
e eˤ ø øˤ ɘ ɘˤ ɵ ɵˤ ɤ ɤˤ o oˤ
e̞ e̞ˤ ø̞ ø̞ˤ ə əˤ ɤ̞ ɤ̞ˤ o̞ o̞ˤ
ɛ ɛˤ œ œˤ ɜ ɜˤ ɞ ɞˤ ʌ ʌˤ ɔ ɔˤ
æ æˤ ɐ ɐˤ
a aˤ ɶ ɶˤ ä äˤ ɑ ɑˤ ɒ ɒˤ

THAT HAS BOTH OF THE ONES YOU SUGGESTED

I JUST DON'T WANT THE INVENTORY TO BE TOO SMALL, THAT MIGHT NOT BE REALISTIC

[Astraios]

Risla, I freaking love you. xD

That looks both realistic and pretty!
