Kasiro

Summary
The Kasīrō language is a medieval language once spoken by the imperial court of a certain powerful empire, having evolved from a pre-imperial form known as Ancient Kasīrō. Trade and military conquest brought this language to a zenith of prestige in the 1300s, but it gradually disappeared with the collapse of its patron empire. Regional dialects of Kasiro branched off and eventually became distinct modern languages still spoken today.

Alphabet
Kasiro has its own writing system, but a modified Latin alphabet is used for the purposes of study. This modified Latin alphabet contains 22 consonants: B b  Ch ch   D d   F f   G g   Gh gh   K k   Kh kh   L l   M m   N n   Ng ng   P p   R r   S s   Sh sh   T t   Ts ts   W w  Y y   Z z   Zh zh as well as 5 long vowels and 3 short vowels, making 8 vowels altogether: Ā ā  Ē ē   Ī ī   Ō ō   Ū ū   A a   I i   U u

Phonotactics
Kasiro does not allow any multiconsonantal onsets aside from a consonant and a semivowel (C + y/w). Only certain consonants, including aspirated plosives and nasals, may be codas. The largest possible syllable is, thus, CAVC, where A is a semivowel.
