Introduction

Indeyivroplu is a personal auxiliary conlang created in 2017 with the goals of showing similarities and forming connections between the several branches of the Indo-European language family. In aspiration of this, the vocabulary of Indeyivroplu is almost fully posteriori and heavily rooted from the following Indo-European languages: Persian, Spanish, German, Russian, Greek, Armenian, Albanian, and Welsh (in a decreasing order of prevalence). As for the priori aspects of the conlang, there are a few unique root words, and the structure can holistically be described as a mixture between some common Indo-European patterns and several inspirations received from other world languages.

Setting

The artificial setting where Indeyivroplu is the official language would be the island of Caxikezav located in the Black Sea in eastern Europe.

Stress

Word stress in Indeyivroplu falls by default on the ultimate syllable of the final root. In effect, this almost always equates to the penultimate syllable of the word, due to the extra ending syllable created by inflection. This rule can only be broken through the usage of an acute diacritic (á,é,ế,í,ó,ú) on the stressed syllable. There is also secondary stress in words with more than four syllables, falling on every third syllable before the primary stress.

  1. zjavir = [ˈzja.viɾ]
  2. gutňohob = [gu̞t̪ˈŋɔ.hɔb]
  3. kupmijonu = [kʰu̞p.miˈjɔ.nu̞]
  4. nefxezohruti = [nɪ̞.fχɪ̞ˌzɔˈhɾu̞.t̪ʰi]
  5. luskorzorkegijohu = [lu̞s.kʰɔɾˌzɔɾ.kʰɪ̞.giˈjɔ.hu̞]
  6. húndatakcmetrju = [ˈhu̞n.da.tʰak.t͡sʰmɪ̞.tʰɾju̞]
