[edit] [top]Colloquial Kyrean

Colloquial Kyrean is the register used by ordinary people in average conversations. It is not used by teachers, the service industry, speeches, formal conversation, or in writing.
Changes:
Vowels, especially y, o, and a, are often dropped if not stressed.
Stressed vowels are more lengthened
Mutations occur in a hierarchy of onset base consonants: Normal stop-Geminate stop-Trill-Double consonant-Fricative-Nasal-Other
Spatial adjectives often behave like any other adjective
H and c are generally not pronounced
Genitives come before the noun, while adjectives come after.
