General information
The language Furmeyre, or to it's speakers Fizjikuz, is a language developed from Proto-Indo-European (PIE) and the ancient elvish language Quenya. This is the only story so far that I have thought up for it, at some point I shall change it.

Alphabet
Furmeyre uses an alphabet constructed by many of the Furmekin scholars. However, we use a Latin transliteration.

a=[ɑ]

b=[b]unless in between to vowels or with a z, in which case [β]

d=[d] when with a another voiced consonant, otherwise [d̪], and in between vowels use [ð]

e=[e] f=[f] used only in front of a,e,i and y

g=[g] unless in between two vowels or before or after a z, in which case it is [ɣ]. Never used before e,i or y

h=[hʲ] only in front of e, i and y

i=[i], [j] at the end of a diphthong or between two other vowels

j=[ʝ] only ever used in front of e,i and y

k=[k] unless in front of e,i or y in which case its [c]

kh=[x] only used in front of a,o and u

l=[l] only used in fornt of a,o and u

lh=[ʎ] only used in fornt of e,i and y

m=[m]

n=[n]

ng=[ŋ]

o=[ɔ]

p=[p] unless in front of u or o, in which case [pʷ]

ph=[ɸ] onlu used in front of o and u

r=[ɹ]

s=[s] unless before e,i or y, in which case [ɕ]

t=[t]

th=[θ]

u=[u] except for in diphthongs and separating vowels, were we say [w]

x=[ç] only used in front of e,i and y

y=[y]

z=[z] unless before e,i or y, in which case [ʑ]

Whenever s comes in contact with a voiced consonant, it is written and pronounced as z. When z comes in contact with an unvoiced consonant it changes it to a voiced plosive.

Phonotactics
Only in foreign words do words begin with a consonant cluster. All consonant clusters are voiced, such as [zd], [zg]. In combining words, when a voiced and unvoiced consonant are combined, they will always revert to the voiced form.

Diphthongs can end in either [i] or [u]. [i] and [u] are never diphthongs, they will always revert to [y].

Example text
The Lord's Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil Amen
