Yuelami phonology, 2




Yuelami phonology




Poetry written in Yu Ravue (Yuelami script)




Sample Setences in Yu Ravue





In this post you can have taste of some sample sentences in Yuelami written in Yu Ravue. I provided a transliteration right below each letter, following the reversed Yuelami script order (from right to left). After that, I rearranged the Latin letters and then offered a translation into English.

Consonant changes



Some consonant sounds are not allowed to follow one another in Yuelami:

1. syllable with b after another syllable with b changes to "v" (written "bh");
2. syllable with v after another syllable with v changes to "b" (written "vh");
3. syllable with s after another syllable with s changes to "sh / x" (written "sh");
4. syllable with x after another syllable with x changes to "s" (written "xh");
5. syllable with z after another syllable with z changes to "j" (written "zh");
6. syllable with j after another syllable with j changes to "z" (written "jh");
7. syllable with y after another syllable with y changes to "yh" (written "yh").

Here you can see as well the punctuation marks in Yu Ravue - the Yuelami alphabet.

Consonants in Yu Ravue



And these are the consonants in Yuelami using Yu Ravue script. My conlang lacks some consonants: f, p, d, g, h, w, dz, dj, tch, c, ts, ç and q.

The decorated form is used in the beginning of words. There is only one form, because words are never ended by consonants in Yuelami.

Vowels in Yu Ravue


So here you are the vowels in Yuelami script (yu ravue), provided with their pronunciation according to the IPA and their Latin alphabet equivalent.

The decorated form 1 is used in the beginning of words and the form 2 at the end. These are special forms for both decorative and emphasis purposes, and they don't work like capital letters.
