Re: Collabromlang
I looked at the sound changes to check, and it seems there are a lot of new morphological effects, IINM. So we might reconsider our declension and conjugations from time to time. The rest is fine I think.qwed117 wrote:Here are the current SCA2 rulesSpoiler:

Re: Collabromlang
Right now they are assumed to be mid-tone, but we should have a question whether assimilatory or dissimilatory spreading occurs.Frislander wrote:Let's have that as question 85.Creyeditor wrote:I looked at the sound changes to check, and it seems there are a lot of new morphological effects, IINM.

80) Regressive vowel umlaut to regenerate mid-vowels
Recount will occur

Word initial vowels will be deleted if followed by a nasal
82) Make initial nasals prenasalized stops
A recount will occur
83) Voice initial prenasalized stops
Initial prenasalized stops will be voiced
84) Scenario: WIXÚRJA We barely eke out a victory against the Jukuns; amazing considering how unprepared we were for the war. What should we do to our newly vanquished foes
We will integrate our foes into our society
85) How many recounts should occur before a question is tabled?

Re: Collabromlang
I've had a look at the sound changes and their outcomes, and I have a few comments:
- We need a few clean-up rules. For instance, adop'tare currently gives ada˦w'ta˨r (or ada˦wa˦ra if the stress is not explicitly marked), which should probably be adau˦'ta˨r instead, and 'sanctus gives 'sanxtu, which should probably be either 'sanxu˦ or 'sanku˦.
- Also, I would suggest adding a few rules at the beginning of the SC list to deal with orthographic exceptions, e.g. <ph th kh y> in Greek loanwords (originally these would have been pronounced /pʰ tʰ kʰ y/, but by the time of Vulgar Latin they had mostly become /f t k i/ IIANM; I think the latter should be our starting point).
- The changes p/˦/V_[sʃ] followed by p[ʃs]/ff/_ have been voted for, but they don't make much sense in this combination IMO, because /ps/ almost always appears after vowels. In www.perseus.tufts.edu I have found only four words of reasonable frequency that would be affected by our second rule: psalmus > ffalmu, psalterium > ffalírju, palimpsestus > palimffìθ, and the prefix pseudo- > ffiuda-. (Also relevant: urbs > aurp if originally /urps/ because the final /s/ is deleted earlier.) None of these are positions where a geminate /ff/ is likely to be retained, although I must admit it looks good. I would therefore suggest a rule about simplifying geminate consonants at some point, possibly with some tonal effects (e.g. adjacent vowels get high tone if the simplified geminate is voiceless, and low tone if the geminate is voiced).
- I propose adding an exception to the sound change CtV/CV˦/_, which should IMO not apply after nasals (so that medial /nt/ clusters survive for now).
- I propose a sound change r,l → ˨ / VV_C, VV_# except VV_[jw]V; possibly accompanied by r,l → i,u(˨?) / V_C, V_# except V_[jw]V
(This would give e.g. urbs > aùp, Marcus > Maìku, albus > aùbu)
