Solans

General information
Solans is my first true Romance conlang. I am unsure where it is going to go, so for now it is experimental.

Allophony

 * /m/ is realized as [ɱ] before labio-dental consonants.
 * /n/ is realized as [ŋ] before /k/.
 * /n/ is realized as [ɴ] before /ʁ/, /l/, /s/, and /ʒ/.
 * /b/, /d/, and /g/ are realized as [β], [ð], and [ɣ], respectively, between vowels.
 * /l/ is realized as [w] at a syllable coda.
 * /a/ becomes [ə] when unstressed.
 * /e/ becomes [ɛ] when unstressed.

Palatalization

 * /g/ is palatalized to [ʒ] before /e/ or /i/.

Other Pronunciation Rules

 * /e/ becomes [i] if it is the only vowel in the last syllable of a word if unstressed.
 * /t/ and /d/ become [t͡ʃ] and [d͡ʒ], respectively, if it comes before an /e/ said as [i].
 * /e/ becomes [ə] after /ʁ/ and /l/ if it is the only vowel in the last syllable of a word if unstressed.
 * /e/ becomes [ə] in a single syllable word.
 * /o/ becomes [u] if it is the only vowel in the last syllable of a word if unstressed.
 * /s/ becomes [ʒ] at the end of a syllable.
 * /t͡s/ becomes [t͡ʃ] at the end of a syllable.
 * /d͡z/ becomes [d͡ʒ] at the end of a syllable.
 * /ʁ/ is silent at a syllable coda.

Digraphs

 * NG makes the sound [ŋ], not [ŋg].
 * GH is used before /e/ and /i/ to depalatalize it.
 * ZJ is pronounced [d͡ʒ].
 * ÁÃ is [ˈã], the stressed form of /ã/.
 * ÓÕ is [ˈɔ̃], the stressed form of /ɔ̃/.

Verbs
There are 3 major classes of nouns: Á verbs, É verbs, and Í verbs. They are named after the vowels the infitives end in. These verbs are conjugated according to person, number, and tense by changing the suffix of the verb. The three major tenses (present, past, and future) will be shown here, but the rest of the tenses will be added to a new page.

Á
Present: Past: Future:

É
Present: Past: Future:

Í

All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
