As mentioned before, Pre-Húsnorsk is a dialect of Old Norse, though whether divergent or conservative is difficult to determine.

Húsnorsk split early on, in the 8th century, as the Rus' began migrating around, due to this historic speaker population, Pre-Húsnorsk is also called Rus' Norse. It is hard to determine when exactly Húsnorsk became a distinct dialect, though it was certainly so by the mid 10th century. The difficulty of dating is largely due to spelling issues in the Younger Futhark, mostly from the small character inventory but a large phoneme inventory. Some independent developments resolve a few of the issues, but many remained. (see the orthography section)

==History==

===Name===

''"Húsnorsk"'' is believed to originate from Pre-Húsnorsk as ''*~~hósanorzka~~'' ~~(note the "hús" is from Old Norse, not Húsnorsk)~~, a term for all the vernacular dialects spoken in the period (roughly ~~1000AD~~-~~1400AD, around the same period as Old Norwegian~~), eventually coming to refer to the vernacular dialect of the region specifically.

''"Húsnorsk"'' is believed to originate from Pre-Húsnorsk as ''*hūsanorþka'', a term for all the vernacular dialects spoken in the period (roughly 750AD-1100AD), eventually coming to refer to the vernacular dialect of the region specifically.

===Development===

The development of Pre-Húsnorsk is ~~poorly~~ understood ~~at best~~, it seems to ~~follow Old~~ Norse ~~for~~ the ~~most part~~, but ~~misses~~ some of the ~~vital shifts that define Old Norse~~.

The development of Pre-Húsnorsk is not entirely understood, and it's doubtful that it ever will be, as it seems several of the changes went unwritten, leaving linguists only to conjecture over possibilities. The major sound changes are listed below.

From Proto-Norse:

*ʀ begun assimilating with neighboring sonorants, but not with other consonants (*-inʀ > -inn)

*Nasals are definitively lost before /s/, nasalizing the preceding the vowel. This seems to also affect nasals before *z

*-Vn develops into a nasal vowel (eg. *habjan > *habją (Pre-Húsnorsk ''hæfą''))

*stressed e breaks into ja, unless following w or r

*j lost word initially, and w lost before round vowels

*I and U umlaut begin: (causes the loss of /i, u/, and the shortening of /iː, uː/)

**with i: /e, ɛ, a, u, o/ > /i, e, ɛ, y, ø/

**with u: /i, e, ɛ, a, o/ > /y, ø, œ, ɔ, u/

**with i and u: /e, ɛ, a, o/ > /y, ø, œ, y/

**A unique feature of Húsnorsk is i-umlauted /i/ and u-umlauted /u/, these undergo breaking to /je/ and /wo/,

*Word final ē in Proto-Norse develops into ī in Pre-Húsnorsk, but remains as ē elsewhere. It also becomes ī before ʀ.

*/au/ and /øy/ merge to /øy/

*coda /l/ had likely developed into /ʟ/ by Old Húsnorsk

*At some point, /NC/ becomes /CC/ (eg. mp, mb, nt, nd, nk, ng > pp, bb, tt, dd, kk, gg)

*A notable feature is the seeming initial devoicing of approximants, thus losing the distinction between r/hr, l/hl, and w/hw. It's believed to be devoicing due to early descriptions by Swedish scholars. ("A people who cannot pronounce their initial Rs, Ls, and Ws without breath")

#~~it's not clear if this exists or not~~, it may have merged with */ø/

#This sound was almost certainly distinct from /ø/ in Pre-Húsnorsk. (/ø/ was written "ꜷ", while /œ/ was written "œ", the consistency between the two seems to point towards a strong distinction)

Every vowel has a nasal counterpart, as well as a long form. It seems when nasal, there is no distinction between mid-high and mid-low, the qualities here were likely true mid ([ẽ̞, ø̞̃, õ̞]), or at least transitioning towards such, though they were most certainly not mid-high by the time of Old Húsnorsk.

==Orthography==

The historic orthography of Pre-Húsnorsk is notoriously difficult to read, as it is with all historic texts in Old Norse. There are two main issues that contribute to this:

*Letter forms often differ greatly from their modern counterparts, as well as the extensive use of ligatures, shorthand, and abbreviations.

*

Early Pre-Húsnorsk (Pre-10th century) was mainly written in a variant of the Elder Futhark. This alphabet had many of the same problems as Old Norse in the Younger Futhark, especially regarding vowels, though it did create a distinction between oral and nasal vowels. This distinction was achieved through "binding" (ligaturing) the n rune (ᚾ, which was often written with a horizontal branch rather than the diagonal one) to the appropriate vowel rune, as in "[[File:phus an rune.jpg|24x20px|class=skin-invert]]" (modern example handwritten on paper), the rune used for "ą".

==Morphology==

===Umlaut===

Line 128:

Line 153:

The strong/weak distinction for nouns is largely unused in Húsnorsk linguistics.

====~~Common~~ patterns====

Near the end of the Pre-Húsnorsk, the vocative begins appearing, this is one of the first major cracks in the phonemic spelling system to show up (the retention of root spellings in verbs is considered inconsequential)

====Masculine patterns====

~~As can be seen with this table, nouns can be irregular, especially when it consists of a vowel followed by l, as historic l-vocalization caused additional vowel alternations on top of umlaut.~~

Line 147:

Line 172:

====Feminine patterns====

~~The feminines have long since merged with~~ the ~~masculines to form~~ the ~~commons~~, ~~this section will cover how each feminine pattern merged into the masculines. some of~~ the feminine ~~patterns have remained distinct in form~~, ~~but still became~~ common ~~in treatment~~.

By the end of the Pre-Húsnorsk era, the masculine/feminine distinction had collapsed, leading to a common gender instead.

Húsnorsk has begun using {{term|-at}} far more often, generalizing it into the negative affix for all verbs~~. ''-at'' appears~~ as ''-t'' ~~after vowels~~.

(Most of these need updating, I gotta finish evolving them all from Proto-Norse)

Húsnorsk has begun using {{term|-at}} far more often, generalizing it into the negative affix for all verbs, though typically appearing as ''-t''.

The plural imperative is usually ''-ið'', but it's occasionally seen as ''-að'', the origin of this new suffix is unknown, but likely comes from differentiating it from the subjunctive.

====Strong verbs====

Strong verbs are characterized by ablaut in the past tense forms, rather than the dental suffix of the weak verbs. The different classes exist as each has a different characteristic ablaut pattern.

Line 203:

=====Class 1=====

Class 1 is characterized by ''-ī-'' in the present and ''-i-'' in the past.

=====Class 2=====

Class 2 is characterized by ''-jō-'' in the present and ''-u-'' in the past.

=====Class 3=====

Class is split into several sub-classes, as there's multiple patterns contained in it. All patterns have ''-u-'' in the indicative past and ''-y-'' in the subjunctive past.

Line 253:

This first verb is the main copula. Though the tables presented here are fully regular as a strong 5 verb, forms exist which aren't, the Contionary page should be seen for these.

~~The regularized ''wæs-'' root was generally rare till late Pre-Húsnorsk, where it starts becoming the dominant forms (with ''wāʀ-'' retained for the past)~~
