Atraball and Yorshball.

Its interesting to see these countryballs interact with each other, isn't it? Especially one's own fictional countries.

COMING UP


LANGUAGE PROJECT 9 - A TONAL LANGUAGE, BELIEVED TO BE DERIVED FROM MIDDLE CHINESE.

Tones of Project 9
There are currently 8 tones, 1 more than Min and the same as Cantonese.

Initials
After going some changes, such as retroflex stops merge with retroflex sibiliants and some other changes:
 * /ɳ/ merged with /ɲ/. (娘母歸日)
 * Voiced labials become implosive.
 * Most voiced stops and affricatives become whether tenius (for level and entering) or nasal (rising or departing). (全濁清化)
 * Voiced dental sibilants all become voiced fricatives. (從母歸邪)
 * Voiced velars all become nasals. (群母歸疑)
 * New sound /p̪͡f/ (沛母) has been isolated from /pʰ/ when it's high rising tone (陰去) and entering tone (入聲).

Finals
A final of Project 9 contains medial, coda, and onset. Some finals of words in Middle Chinese has change (most of them lose their medials) and here's some rule:
