Calgrian

Classification and Dialects
Calgrian (natively Kaugrian) is a germanic language spoken [sometime in the future] in the Pacific Northwest of North America and as far East as the city of Calgary, where it diverged from English and took on the city's name.

Writing System
Much like in English, the Calgrian orthography is not entirely phonemic, and the written form of a word is often not sufficient to determine pronunciation. However, the following apply in the vast majority of cases
 * Y is pronounced as [ai] in the final position when preceeded by a consonant
 * Y is pronounced as a neutral vowel [ʊ ~ ə] between two consonants
 * I is pronounced as [i] in the final position
 * E is pronounced as [ei] in the final position
 * C only exists when followed by E or I
 * X is pronounced as [ʃ] in the final position
