Some verbs with velar/palatal stems, e.g. ''brindżen, brachtie, bracht'' 'bring'; ''budżen, buchtie, bucht'' 'buy'; ''llanczen, llachtie, llacht'' - 'think' form a small subclass of soft stem thematic verbs.

Revision as of 23:52, 20 May 2016

Glommish (þiúdьsk /ɬʲuːtʲsk/ or þat þiúdьske mál; from Proto-Germanic *þiudiskaz) is a Germanic language spoken in Þiúdland (this world's Northern France and Western Germany) on the alt-hist of Lõis. It has the most speakers on Lõis out of any Germanic language. Glommish is intended to have a pseudo-Irish/Slavic aesthetic.

1-10: ýn, tvý, þrí, fiór, finf, siaks, siaven, acht, nión, tiachn /ɨːn, tvɨː, ɬʲrʲiː, fʲoːr, fʲinf, sʲæks, sʲævən, axt, nʲoːn, tʲæxn/

11-19: ýlьf, tvalьf, þrítián, fiórъtián, finfъtián, siaksъtián, siafъtián, achъtián, nióntián /ɨːlʲf, tvalʲf, ɬʲrʲiːtʲæːn, fʲoːrtʲæːn, fʲinftʲæːn, sʲækstʲæːn, sʲæftʲæːn, axtʲæːn, nʲoːnʲtʲæːn/

20-90: tvýntiech, þrítiech, ... achъtiech, nióntiech /tvɨːnʲtʲəx, etc./

100: hunderþ /hundərɬ/

1000: þúsendь /ɬuːzənʲdʲ/

Phonology

Like its southern neighbor Ufirlandisg, Glommish phonology is characterized by hard and soft consonants.

Consonants

Consonant phonemes
Labial Dental/Alveolar Lateral Palatal Velar Glottal
plain pal. plain pal. plain pal.
Nasal m m mь mʲ n n̪ nь nʲ
Stop
/Affricate 		voiceless p p pь pʲ t t̪ tь tʲ cz tʃ k k

voiced v v vь vʲ
Liquid r r rь rʲ l ɫ lь lʲ j j

Orthographical note: The soft sign ь and the palatalizing i soften every consonant in the cluster by default; however, the hard sign ъ prevents the softening of consonants to the left of it.

Notes
  • Hard /ɬ~ɮ/ is strongly velarized [ɬˠ~ɮˠ].

Morphology

Nouns

Like German, Glommish has 4 cases. However, nominative and accusative are conflated for articles, nouns and adjectives.

Articles

Glommish uses the indefinite article yn (declined as an adjective) and the definite article llar.

Definite article
case singular plural
m. f. n.
nom. þa llí þat þí
dat. þam þiar þam þím
gen. as þiar þas þiar

Consonant stems

a-stem: vulf (m.) 'wolf'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative vulf vulfe
Dative vulfe vulfem
Genitive vulfs vulfe


ja-stem: basь (n.) 'berry'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative basь basie
Dative basie basiem
Genitive basies basie

n-stems

Declined like weak adjectives. (The masculines have -n in the accusative singular; the feminines and neuters have the accusative singular identical to the nominative singular.)

a-stem: name (n.) 'name'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative name namen
Dative namenь namem
Genitive namenь namen

Vowel stems

Nouns with this declension type are almost always feminine in modern Glommish.

ō-stem: nase (f.) 'nose'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative nase naser
Dative nase nasem
Genitive naser nase


u-stem: side (f.) 'custom'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative side sider
Dative side sidem
Genitive sider side


i-stem: burþie (f.) 'birth'
Case Singular Plural

Dative burþie burþiem
Genitive burþier burþie


i-stem: starcze (f.) 'strength'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative starcze starczer
Dative starcze starczem
Genitive starczer starcze


ō-stem: riaknyng (f.) 'balance, calculation'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative riaknyng riaknynger
Dative riaknyng riaknyngem
Genitive reknynger riaknyng

Grab bag

z-stem: lamb (n.) 'lamb'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative lamb lambier
Dative lambe lambiem
Genitive lambs lambie


r-stem: fadier (m.) 'father'
Case Singular Plural
Nominative fadier fadrie
Dative fadrie fadriem
Genitive fadiers fadrie

Adjectives

Declension

For attributive adjectives, the weak declension is used when the noun is preceded by a definite article or demonstratives. The strong declension is used otherwise. Below are the strong and weak declensions of the adjective gád 'good':

Template:Col-2
Strong declension for hard-stem adjectives
case singular plural
m. f. n.
nom. gáde gáde gádet gáde
dat. gádme gáder gádme gádem
gen. gádes gáder gádes gáder

Template:Col-2

Weak declension for hard-stem adjectives
case singular plural
nom. gáde gáden
dat. gádenь gádem
gen. gádenь gáden


Soft-stem adjectives such as skónь 'beautiful' can be declined similarly.

Template:Col-2
Strong declension for soft-stem adjectives
case singular plural
