Denari

The Denari language (Ferse-va Denari / فهرسه-ڤا دهناری) is a language of the hormagi-legana family, spoken by denari, an alien people of the planet Ēvèsh (world, in Denari). It is a nominative-accusative language, of SVO structure, with highly declined nouns (it has 9 grammatical cases), and highly inflected verbs.

Its main speakers are the Denari, it is spoken mainly in Denar, officially Denari Republic (Kermèshvâna-va Denari / کهرمهٔشڤآنا-ڤا دهناری). The denari are monotheists, their religion is nishraism, and they accredit in a single goddess called Nishra (literally god in denari). Their religion encourages capitalism and the pursuit of profit, whose purpose is in the commerce practiced by the Denaris.

Denari is used as lingua franca in much of the planet Ēvèsh, having influenced many languages.

Consonants
The denari is comparatively little complex as to the number and types of consonants. Each consonant has its own individual letter, except for the consonants [r] and [ɾ], which are represented by the same letter R (ر in Arabic), for the consonants [l] and [ɫ], which are represented by the same letter L (ل in Arabic), and [ʒ] and [d͡ʒ], which are represented by the same letter J (ج in Arabic).
 * The Denari only has a consonant with an emphatic version, the [sˤ], which is only used between two vowels, and is represented in the Arabic alphabet by the letter ص, indicating an emphatic son near to the [z] phoneme. A similar or similar phenomenon occurs in the Portuguese language, in which the letter S acquires the sound of [z] between vowels.
 * The phonemes [r] and [ɾ] are represented by the same letter R (ر in Arabic). Their uses vary from word to word, syllable to syllable and dialect to dialect, but usually the phoneme [ɾ] is often used more.
 * The phonemes [l] and [ɫ] are represented by the same letter L (ل in Arabic). The letter L represents the phoneme [l] when it precedes a vowel on the same syllable, and represents the phoneme [ɫ] when occur after a vowel on the same syllable. But in some dialects the L acquires the sound of [l] same at the end of the syllable after and vowel.
 * The phonmes [ʒ] and [d͡ʒ] are represented by the same letter J (ج in Arabic). There is no rule for the specific use of one phoneme over another, but the phoneme [d͡ʒ] prevails.

Vowels
The Denari has 8 vowels, being 2 closed vowles ([i] and [u]), and 6 open vowels, divided in 3 open front vowels ([a], [ɛ] and [ɔ]) and 3 open back vowels ([ɒ], [e], [o]). Each vowel has its own letter, differentiating the open front vowels from the open back vowels. This prevents words, which would be orthographically the same (varying only in the opening of the vowel), to be confused in the pronunciation. Example: In Denari, the closed vowels [i] and [u] and the semi-vowels [j] and [w] are respectively represented by the same letters, I / ی in the case of the phonemes [i] and [j] and U / ؤ  in the case of the phonemes [u] and [w]. This is because in Denari, sounds [j] and [w] are little used, used only in diphthongs, and, most of the time, optionally. The use of the sounds [j] and [w] in diphthongs is only compulsory when it is a crescent diphthong (semi-vowel + vowel) antecedent of vowel or when the decreasing diphthong (vowel + semi-vowel). Examples:
 * Vos / ڤوس - /vos/ - Number two in English.
 * Vòs / ڤۏس - /vɔs/ - Uncle in English.
 * The word iad / یاد, which means all in denari, can be pronounced both as [jad] and as [iˈad]. This is because, being a growing diphthong at the beginning of the word, there is no specific pronunciation rule.
 * The word naia / نایا, woman in denari, is pronounced [naja]. In this case, the [i] would only be pronounced in the place of [j] if there was a tonic accent on the I, as occurs in the word Aíad / ایَاد, stone in denari.
 * The word aonai / اونای (declension in the accusative case of the word aoni, meaning person or man), is pronounced [aoˈnaj], that is because there is a decreasing diphthong. The [i] would be pronounced in place of [j] if there was a tonic accent, which would indicate that there is no diphthong.

Diphtongs
In denari, there are two categories of diphthongs: rising (semi-vowel + vowel) and falling diphthongs (vowel + semi-vowel or vowel + vowel).

Alphabet
Denari has its own alphabet, but in this text the words will be written in the Latin alphabet and in a modified Arabic alphabet (because they are the ones that best represent the Denari phonemes).
 * The "Ss", (س in Arabic alphabet), is used between two vowels, to represent the phoneme [s].
 * The ص is written as S in the Latin alphabet, but has a sound of [sˤ] or [z] when between two vowels. It is not used elsewhere, only between two vowels or after a vowel on the same syllable, succeeded by a consonant on a different syllable, to represent the sound of [sˤ] or [z].
