Neggerel

Setting
The neggerel is the main language of the zhil, the fish-like humanoid species that inhabits the world of Braq.

The fact of this people being a kind of humanoid fishes makes that the language that they speak be extremely nasal and uvular (be cause this are the sounds that they could pronounce with less effort in the sub-aquatic depths).

Because of this the language is hard to pronounce even within the zhil themselves. Is very unpopular between other races, and only the 70% of the zhil are still having it as a mother language. The others (especially those born in not aquatic planets) prefer to use foreign languages.

Vowels
There are ten vowels in neggerel. They are the common vowels plus the nasal vowels of the guarani language. They’re basically the /a/, /e/, /i/, /o/ and /u/ vowels, and their nasalized equivalents. If you cannot pronounce the nasal vowels, just pronounce one of the common vowels after a palatal nasal (this would be, ɳa, ɳe, ɳi, ɳo, ɳu) and then you will immediately be pronouncing the nasal vowels with no effort. Also you can try pronouncing vowels as a guy with cold would do.

It’s important to remark that the vowels are nasalized just when are preceded by Ñ.
