Hi guys, Pretty quiet here at the moment... I'm putting the finishing touches to the Jameld Dictionary, including (as previously discussed here) IPA...
Hi! ... I'd say it's usually postalveolar, so maybe [r\_-] (where _- means 'retracted'), since _train_ gives you [tSr\_-...] in many dialects. This is in...

... Interesting... Still gives me a sore throat though :) ... Righto! Funny thing is, I never had German down as having that "French" uvular R. Goes to show...
Hi guys! I'm Stephan, and I have posted a lot of ideas about an artificial germanic-like language on the yahoo-group "Folkspraak". My language is called...

"AFAIK, no [X] occurs for _r_ in German. In the situation where you'd expect devoicing, the vowel [6] is used instead." In regional pronunciation of the...
I've uploaded a new Jameld pronunciation guide to the dictionary section of www.zolid.com/zm -- I'd appreciate any comments on this and the Jam-Eng dict as a...
Hi! Hmm, it seems I disagree a bit in this mail, however: ... No, 'fahren' has no [6]. You need a non-syllabic consonant or stem beginning or word end after...

Hi! Strange mail you sent -- full of superfluous line breaks which I'll delete in my answer. ... No. :-) ... Ah, ok. Bühnenaussprache is a bit exaggerated....

„Hi! Strange mail you sent -- full of superfluous line breaks which I'll delete in my answer.“ I don’t know what my outlook is doing there. Just keep on...
... It can go many ways, indeed. Most "standard" and IMO correct would be indeed [r], but a variety of other sounds can be encountered too, including [4],...
To me, the German /r/ rules appear very simple: /r/ is [R] at the beginning and [6] at the end of a syllable. [@6] always collapses into [6], and [a6] into...
Hi all, I was musing around over creating some alternative Germanic words/names for the moon, and thought about taking PIE (s)kand- ("shine, illuminate, glow")...
Hi! Sorry for the crosspost and/or any duplicates you receive. I did not dare to send this to all the specialised conlang lists. Or should I? Anyway: since...

Does the Second Germanic Soundshift pre- or post-date the fronting of vowels under the influence of -i-?...
On Behalf Of habarakhe4 "Does the Second Germanic Soundshift pre- or post-date the fronting of vowels under the influence of -i-?" I'd say SS2 pre-dated the...
... The second sound shift definitely predates *phonemic* i-umlaut, as can be seen from Langobardic and Old High German, but whether it predates *phonetic*...
Hi! I'm currently gathering data for my new long-term project S17, which will be Latin with Icelandic sound changes. The conhistory will probably start around...

Here's a basic dialogue in Capraian. For those without incredibly long memories, this is my Mediterranean Germanic conlang project. It's Germanic, but it's not...
I thought the point of Folksprak was to make a simple Inter-Germanic language. I just took a look at the Folksprak PDF uploaded last month and it seems to be...
Hi, thanks for your comments. First off let me state that there is no "official" version of Folksprak yet, and that grammar is my own creation (albeit with...
I've been just observing for a while, because I like a posteriori conlangs. I've creating a Romantic conlang, but lately, I've been itching to try to make a...
... Welcome! ... That's true. But, if you really want to go for a historically plausible romlang, you should base it on Vulgar instead of Classical Latin. And...
