About Natsakhi Шулум! Анну кэлэ Нацахи, кэлэ Шеми мазнахим ит нулу дан ишто кэли Монголи.
Šulum! Annu kele Natsaḫi, kele Šemi maznaḫim it nulu dan išto keli Mongoli.
Hello! This is Natsakhi, an East Semitic language with strong influence from Mongolian.

Natsakhi is an East Semitic language whose speakers became nomadic after the fall of the Akkadian empire, eventually settling in modern-day western Mongolia. this is a flimsy justification for me to create a heavily mongolicized semiticlang!

etymologies in dictionary: akk. = akkadian cognate, mmn. = middle mongol loanword, ara. = aramaic loanword

FEATURES:
  • NOT akkadian
  • only nominative and oblique cases
  • lots of vocab from middle mongol and a little aramaic
  • begedkefet lenition
  • /ɮ/
  • written with cyrillic because ussr
  • mimation? only if the following word starts with a vowel 😎
