I made a phonological change to Shonkasika, differentiating series of identical vowels. This was always true for /i/ and /u/, but I added this for the other vowels. The result is sometimes a diphthong:
/ii/ > /je/ /uu/ > /wo/ /ee/ > /ej/ /oo/ > /ow/ /aa/ > /æa/ /ææ/ > /æa/ /øø/ > /øe/ /yy/ > /yo/ This changes two existing words: *saamo > säamo noodle *hinoo > hinóu respect I added a vocative particle, tsau, used with the nominative case: Deros tsau! O man! I also added a particle (determiner, something else?), prau, used for exclamations (also used with the nominative case): Deros prau! What a man!

Whoa, I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted. I guess work gets in the way.
I added a synthetic aspect to verbs, the prospective aspect. It is formed by suffixing -vi to the simple stem, which is related to the verb ovinu - to come: ruvat I love ruvaipet I have loved ruvavit I am about to love; I am going to love As of now, there is only one irregular prospective stem, that of banu to be, bovi- (instead of the expected bavi-) I simplified the nominative plural of nouns, which now have no case ending and the old nominative plural case ending is now the accusative plural case ending: rida, ridao, ridaoth potato, potatoes (nom.), potatoes (acc.) |
