Oxman

Oxman is a constructed germanic language spoken in the the Netherlands, and at time in the north of England, this language is very close to Dutch (Nederlands' tael) and English (Engels' tael).

This language is based on the English phonology mixed with new sounds and on the Dutch verbs and words.

History The first origins of the Oxman were from the old Dutch dialects spoken during the Germanic invasions and viking invasions, particulary the Old Auregan. The Oxman language in spoken in the north of the Netherlands as an old Frisian dialect, there were about 50 oxman speakers in the eastern England, but now the oxman is not spoken in England.

Phonology
The oxman phonology looks like the English one but there is also a lots of differences :

Basic Grammar
The oxman grammar is difficult. A "v" or a "z" couldn't end a word, if a vowel is followed by the consonants t, d, k word-final, in the plural, we add a second t, d or k and es. When we are conjuging the oxman verbs, look at the infinitive form, if there is one or two following vowel(s), for an e, a or o, if there is only one voyel, the "e" will become a "ea", the "a" a "ae", and the "o" a "oa" :

Levean = ik leaf (to live, I live),

Sittean = ik sit (to sit, I sit)

Some  irregular   plural forms :

Man (man) : mensen

Land (land) : landen

Hand (hand) : handen

Hous (house) : huises

Mous (mouse) : muises

Lous (louse) : luises

Kind (child) : kinderen
