Utagasvrimahi

General information
UtakSurmahi is High-God-Speak, a language that the sages and monks worked together to create that would closely emulate the pure sounds and feelings found in every human. It would serve to preserve and enlighten the people who would speak it - half of its words are devoted to meditation, philosophy and dharmic teachings. The other half is focused on emotion and words of every day usage.

This language is designed to be the primordial language before the catalysm that destroyed the land of its speakers before spreading around the world of Askāla in the form of various Jamahī. (daughter languages/dialects).

Alphabet
Plosives: p, b, t, d, .ț, ḑ, c, j, k, g;

Aspirated: ph, bh, th, dh, țh, ḑh, ch, jh, kh, gh

Sibilants: f, s, z, ś, ș, x, h

Liquids: v, l/ḷ, r, y

Nasals: m, n, ņ, ń, ñ

Vowels: a, i, u, r, e, o, ā, ī, ū, ai, au

Phonotactics
1. Plosives - aspirated versions cannot be followed by /v/, /l/, /r/ or /n/. Exceptions: 
 * phra, thva, thra, Thva, chva, chla, chra, khva, khla, khra, khna


 * bhra, dhva, dhra, Dhva, jhva, ghva, ghla, ghra, ghna

2. Nasals - can only combine with suffixed plosives (aspirated included) in nucleus. If in coda, a vowel must follow, unless it is /m/, which changes the preceding vowel to a nasalized form if not before a vowel or a labial consonant.

3. Sibilants - can combine with unvoiced plosives, nasals and liquids, prefix or suffix. But retroflexes cannot combine with dentals and vice versa. NB:


 * /h/ is seen as a  fricative, yet has inherent rules of sibilants although it cannot combine with aspirated plosives prefixwise while retaining its integrity.


 * Before voiceless consonants /h/ will change to become any of the 4 sibilants (f, s, sh, zh) depending on where the tongue will be. As for voiced consonants, it will change to an /r/ if not next to dentals or even be dropped out depending on Sandhi. Eg ah+dhra > odhra, ah+Ta > aShTa, nih+vana > nirvana, etc


 * /s/ - The same applies here as well, especially in coda. Except /s/ changes to /l/ if next to any voiced consonant or vowel.

4. Liquids


 * /av/ > /o/, but /āv/ > /au/ unless followed by another vowel. Exception: /au/ + /u/ > [āb u].


 * /ay/ > /e/, but /āy/ > /ai/ unless followed by another vowel. Exception: /ai/ + /i/ > [ār i].


 * /r/ before any dental consonant r etroflexes them. Including /l/ (becomes ḷ). This effect gets cancelled if an ā vowel appears anywhere after.
