In this lesson (which is totally useless just btw) I'll be covering the basics of

Basgitian phonology and orthography.

[edit] [top]Vowels

Basgitian only has 3 vowels, two of which have a nasal variation. Below is a table showing these:

	Front	Back
Close	i
Close-mid		o - õ
Open	a - ã

[edit] [top]Consonants

There are 11 consonants in Basgitian, including 3 loan-word phonemes and 1 non-distinct letter:

	Bilabial	Alveolar	Velar	Pharyngeal	Glottal
Nasal	(m)	(n)
Plosive	p - b	t̺	g		ʔ¹
Fricative		s̺		ʕ	h
Lateral approximant		(l)

¹This is written as <x> in Basgitian orthography.

[edit] [top]Notes

- The max syllable structure is CVVC. Cross-syllable consonant clusters of up to two consonants are allowed
- /a/ and /o/ are nasalised after /b/ and /p/
- /ʕ/ is inserted before a word-initial vowel
- There are no diphthongs

So uh, yeh. I'll add more stuff when I think of it :P ✎ Edit Article ✖ Delete Article
