Yorshaan

General information
Yorshaan language (Yorshaan: Yorshohtten /ˌjoɻʃoxˈtˤen/) is a language spoken by Yorshaan people. Yorshaan is known to be a language isolate, though most people speaking it live in Europe near the Alps.

As for most people,Yorshaan could be a "solemn language" like Hebrew. Rhymes are crucial in Yorshaan.

As shown in the map at right, most of Yorshaan people dwell in the west-north Atra, which causes a lot of trouble (i.e. separatism). The referedum about the independence of Republic of Yorshaa was once held, but it turned out that the republic failed to establish.

Alphabet
Because the latin alphabet was introduced by German languistics, the names of these alphabets are effected and may sound like those in German.

Consonants

 * 1) Pronounced in front of "u" as in "dawuu" /dɑˈβuː/ (greed).
 * 2) The Standard Yorshaan tends to give the letter two sounds: /t̻/ (laminal) before back vowel and /t̪/ (dental) before front vowel. As for schwa, it remain normal /t/. So does the letter "d".
 * 3) It becomes /ç/ after the vowel "i", /ɧ/ when followed by "y", /ʍ/ when followed by "w".

"Tosa Clozlospyull"
As mentioned in the last section, there can be at most 5 varients of the alveolar plosive: /t̪/, /t̻/, /tʲ/, /tʷ/, and /tˤ/. Consonants like the letter t possessing five varients are called "Tosa Clozlospyull (6-varient sound) in Yorshaan, comprising t and d. Whearas Tosa Sehlospye, a 4-varient consonant, doesn't have dental nor laminal varient. It is believed that there were once dental sibilant /s̪/ and /z̪/, but somehow became non-sibilant as what we use now:/θ/ and /ð/. As for 3-varient consonants, they are lack of pharyngealized form, yet still able to be labialized or palatalized.

Further more, there is even Tosa Csyerlospye (0-varient consonant). That is, they can't be dentalized, laminalized, palatalized, labialized, nor pharyngealized. The letter h is still being argued nowadays, since its palatalization and labialization is not so "perfect" or even able to be regarded as another sound, making them not standard varients.
 * 6-varient Consonant: d, t.
 * 4-varient Consonant: s, z.
 * 3-varient Consonant: p, b, f, v, m, n, l, r.
 * The rest goes into 0-varient consonant.

Digraph and Trigraph

 * 1) The digraph "lh" is ponounced /ʟ/ only before front vowels such as æ, œ, e, and i. Otherwise it would be /l/ as in the word lhantuu. This could happened before Modern Yorshaan.
 * 2) H sounds (h, hy, and hw) are silent at the end of a word. It's believed that they were once pronounced in Old Yorshaan, but involved into /ɰ/. They dropped eventually as in Modern Yorshaan.
 * 3) It's believe that there were once /ts/ and /dz/ in Yorshaan, but somehow they became dental consonants.

Clusters
Yorshaan allows consonant clusters to appear, yet their voiceness must be the same. In most cases, the first consonant affects the second one. There could only be two consonants in a cluster.

Take Ponigt (Honored us) for example, the cluster gt /gd/ is affected by the g.

Demonstrative
Personal demonstratives are now only used for honorifics. The term "raze" shows lower status, while "Stazen" stands for people of higher rank. Additionally, the first letter of "Stazen" must be upper case and be in the front of a sentence all the time. The term "maze" has become rare. All the demonstrative pronouns have the same ending as V-nouns (absolutive) and can also be seen as V-nouns.
 * Stazosy nuta sæysac......(If you, whom I cherished, are tired of war......)
 * Stazen præ joltot? (My lord, who hurt you?)

Demonstrative Determiner
The -m suffix appears when the determiner follows a vowel-opening word. For example:
 * bina (country)
 * rei binae (this country)
 * utye (song)
 * steim utyei /ˌst̪eɪ̯m uˈtʲeɪ̯/ (that song)

Interrogative and Relative Pronouns
It's more like a noun that declines rather than several pronouns according to its grammatical role. All the pronouns decline as the I nouns, except that these pronouns don't have definite form. All interrogative pronouns must be at the head of a sentence. Relative pronouns, or exactly relativizer, is the adjunct form of those interrogative pronouns. Together with a hyphen, Yorshaan create relative clauses with these adjuncts. Certainly there would be such situation like the shared noun plays as different grammatical roles in both relative and main clause. As for the relativizer, it always plays the role in the relative clause. As the examples above, the pronoun "U" (he ergative) becomes introductory.
 * PrœABS mimei du? (Who do you love?)
 * ProsuERG joltot do? (Who hurt you?)
 * ProsautDAT stei mabei griynei du? (Whom do you give that letter to?)
 * ŒprœABS ithot do? (Whom did you run away from?)
 * ProsayINSTR du fronei maha? (Whom do you turn into a pig?)
 * ProsijicaGEN ohy? (Whose book is this?)
 * PROSAAVOC! (WHO!)
 * Lenosy ohy rei melai prosum-mimei cu . (Lena is the girl whom I love. )
 * Rei melui prosum-mimon  co cœlcein anyada.(The girl who loved me jumped down the bridge.)
 * U prosar-griynei rei mabei cu ohy Lenen. ( Who I gave this letter to is Lena.)
 * Lenosy ohy e  prosar-griynei rei mabei cu . (Lena is who I gave this letter to.)
 * U presum-dagohy cu jolta icivordue. ( What I've seen  hurts my mind.)

Nouns
There are three kinds of declension in Yorshaan. The Yorshaan people is used to call the kinds of declension Merlina Zadyum (as for First Declension), Merlina Vhorjull (as for Second Declension), and Merlina Lhosiys (as for Third Declension). They are litarally "Eagle noun" (I), "Horse noun" (II), and "Void noun" (III).

Z-Noun (I)
Z refers to Zadyum as mentioned above. The declension of Z-Noun is sometimes called first declension or declension I by foreign linguists.
 * 1) The prefix of ablative nouns agrees with the first vowel of the noun. Take "bina" for example, the prefix here is "i-". This rule also suits for other groups of nouns.
 * 2) This case is actually a prefix form of a noun referring to some certain relations in Yorshaan, thus it's lack of adjunct form.

V-Noun (II)
V refers to Vhorjull as mentioned above. The declension of V-Noun is sometimes called second declension or declension II by foreign linguists. There is no common rule to distinguish V-nouns from Z-nouns, so one can only memorize which kind of declension a noun should be.

L-Noun (III)
L refers to Lhosiys as mentioned above. The declension of L-Noun is sometimes called third declension or declension III by foreign linguists.

While Z-nouns and V-nouns are all countable, L-nouns are uncountable. Thus such nouns are ocassionally called abstract nouns.

Numeral
The affix representing the noun form of a numeral (-uu) implies that a numeral is actually an L-noun. Pronominal numerals can be regarded as V-Nouns.
 * Bina urit. (One country)
 * Utye uroh. (One song.)
 * Ur dena. (A girl)

S-Noun (IV)
This sort of noun are sometimes called "Honorified Noun" due to its usage. S-Nouns comprise proper nouns and nouns that are honorified, such as Anglen (England), Atren (Atramia), Jiwen (Jew), Christyen (Christian), and the most typical Stazen (You whom we cherished)(The reason why such kind of noun is called S-Noun).

Because S-nouns are lack of plural form, they are also called "Honorified L-Noun".

Names in Yorshaan
Personal names of people are considered S-nouns too, but their absolutive form is the same as vocative form. Besides, there is always a hyphen between the suffix and the name stem. Though the pronunciation isn't affected.
 * Ramenz!
 * Ithaa Ramenz-iht! (Dash with Ramenz!)

Cases able to reflect
Yorshaan is lack of the idea of preposition (ie of, by, etc). The verb-like word is used instead. That is, there might be a word that act like a verb and an adjective (or a noun) at the same time. In other words, only verbs are allowed to be followed by another noun, and a preposition must be verb form.

Usually one case can be considered stems of verbs in Yorshaan: the instrumental case. It refers to tool and agent. The reflectable case of I noun follows the rule of I verb, while those of II and III nouns follow the rules of II verb. That of proper nouns reflect as III verbs. Take the noun "ucethuu" (loyality) or example: In such way, one can also express how the relation was/is/will be happened. The reflection of the stem from I-nouns are the same as I-verbs, while other nouns follow the rule of
 * ucethuu (absolutive)
 * ucethafh (instrumental)
 * Coi ucethafhaa! (Be loyal to me!)(Lit. Do the royality to me!)

Allative case
The term "allative case" isn't quite formal, but the case can be seen as an extra usage of dative case (in contrast to ablative case).
 * Shujhendemc pserat cradaz. (The humans were banished to the wilderness.)
 * Ushujhende pserat cradaz. (The humans were banished from the wilderness.)
 * E pserat Azarlyen shujhendemc. (He was banished from Zarlia to the wilderness.)

Reflexive case
There is no specific reflection for reflexive cases in Yorshaan, though it was done by combining the absolutive form with hyphen and its ergative ending.
 * crada (person)
 * cradu (person (agent))
 * crada-u (person himself)
 * mei cradai-ui (the person himself)
 * co-u (I myself)
 * Swanaz-uz orvegs. (Siblings killed each other.)

Definiteness
There are some ways in Yorshaan to mark a noun's deifniteness. The most common way is to via particle rei and rœe, besides the prefix that implys the genitive case of other nouns and pronouns.
 * mela (a girl)(indefinite)
 * melai (the girl)(definite)(illegal)
 * rei melai (the girl)
 * icimelai (my girl)(ici- my)
 * binimelai (the girl that belongs to a kingdom)
 * binoimelai (the girl that belongs to the kingdom)
 * Thushencamelai (the girl from Thushenk)

Regular Verbs
 Main Article: Yorshaan Regular Verb 

Most verbs in Yorshaan are regular and can be roughly sorted into 3 groups:I (G), II (M), and III (D) verb. Each of them are quite different from another one. The first group of regular verbs changes its last vowel of the stem. Each of these verb group has its very own infinite form ending. The list below shows the form that are always appear on the dictionary (present passive independent form). And here's three small tables that presents the reflection (realis mood) of three verb groups. Take dœneem (sing), calaam (breath), and butus (awake) for examples:
 * I verb: -eem
 * II verb: -aam
 * III verb: -us

Irregular Verbs
 Main Article: Yorshaan Irregular Verb 

Yorshaan does have some verbs that doesn't follow the regular rule of verbs (three kinds of ocnjugation). Whether a verb is regular can only be memorized if its infinite form has the same ending as other regular verbs.

Optative in Yorshaan
There are 4 moods at total in Yorshaan:1) realis, 2) optative, 3) subjunctive and 4) imperative. The optative mood refers to the wish or willing of the speaker, light command or request to the adressee, and so on.

1) A wish or willing
Optative often refers to the hope of the speaker, who wants something to be done or be into a state. When the adverb sil is introduced, the meaning would change. It would be prohibition, prevention, or disapproval.
 * Nacrosh. (I want to cry.)
 * Du omunzwits siza. (I want you to be a hero in the future.)
 * Pseri co. (I want to go.)
 * Sil nacrosh. (I don't want to cry.)
 * Sil pseri do. (I don't want you to go.)
 * Sil pseruiwerus e. (He deosn't want to go.)

2) A guess or imagination
In addition to wishes, optative can express guess or imagination, as the speaker is uncertain about something. The adverb sil here shows the negative guess.
 * Alvafhinth. (It could probably rain now.)
 * U mei dena ohyom. (Maybe she is the girl.)
 * U mei dena omomwits. (Maybe she will become the girl.)
 * U mei dena sil ohyom. (Maybe she's not the girl.)

3) Regret
This function can only be realized by past optative. Since the past couldn't be altered, one who wishes can only regret. The adverb sil refers to that the speaker doesn't want something to happen in the past.
 * U mei dena ogomwe. (It would be great if she was the girl.)
 * Cu sil orvol. (I shouldn't have killed you.)(I'm sorry that I killed you.)(It would be good if I didn't kill you.)

4) Rhetorical question
Optative can also be used in a question to form a rhetorical one.
 * Prœ psera roanemc? (Who comes here?)
 * Prœ pserin roanemc? (Who would ever want to come to such a place?)

Infinitive Dependent and Infinitive Independent
There are two forms of a infinitive form of a verb: infinitve dependent and independent. An infinitive independent always stands alone, while an infinitive dependent can only rely on another verb or even nouns. Infinitives in Yorshaan have various usages.

1) Introductory word
Infinitive independent is often used to introduce a noun phrase (acting as a stem of a III noun). Infinitive dependent is more like an extra information for those depended verbs. A Yorshaan infinitive has passive form and antipassive form at the same time. Whether to use either voice depends on the arguments in the noun phrase. For example, in the first sentence, there is an absolutive noun mela, which suggests that the absent argument of the verb "see" should be ergative. Since the infinitive takes the place of the absent noun, it then become antipassive voice.
 * Degichentsafh hamiys mela joltinc ilu co argrale ays.(To see a lovely being hurt by an adult really makes me angry.)
 * Dageemafh Vernosy maygull co argrafho fis.(Being seen by Verna in that way also makes me angry.)
 * Ijatithifenedidgentsuu vozcraduu œr presay-cesalen Manen cozweralen melaut mimiys mustull dun.( Trying to convince everyone that Mana was wrong was impossible for such a weak girl at that time.)

Infinitive dependent, as ijatithi in the third example sentence, attaches to another verb (here an infinitive). The term "ijatithi" couldn't be alone in a sentence. Together with the infinitive fenedidgents forms another infinitive ijatithifenedidgents (to try to convince).

Whether the infinitive is passive voice or not doesn't effect what case it should be in. As for its tense, its always same as the verb which takes the infinitive as its argument. In the third example sentnece, the infinitives ijatithifenedidgentsuu is in past tense.

An introductory word formed by infinitives must receive a III noun suffix.

2) Additional information
Infinitive dependent can also be seen the addition of meaning to other verbs. In this case, one would see an infinitive prefix and a verb that reflects. This funciotn implies that there is no such idea as auxiliary verbs in Yorshaan. The verb bœzeem (can, able to do, handle, deal with) is able to stand alone in a sentence, while can can't.
 * Reigio œnfue bœza cu. (I can handle the future.)
 * Reigio œnfue dagobœza cu. (I can see the future.)
 * Reigio œnfue bavabœza cu. (I can save the future.)
 * Do cu ijatithifeneda. (I tried to convince you.)

In this case, the infinitive is always passive.

3) As a result of the previous verb
Infinitive independent is also used to describe a result action of another verb. Like most infinitives after a verb in English, and a verb in front of another verb with a particle て between them in Japanese. Im comparision: The infinitive here is in past tense, and receive a corresponding suffix -ith, unlike English or Japanese, both of which doesn't mark the tense of the infinitive. The structure also allows a noun to be the argument of both verb, but its c ase depends on the previous verb (not the infinitive one). When there is a noun between both the finitive and infinitive verb, the voice of infinitive one depends on the role of the noun to the infinitive. However, the infinitiv is always passive while there's nothing between the verbs. In the last example sentence, the noun co (I) is ergative to the term orvidgents e (kill him).
 * 起きて顔を洗う.
 * I woke up to wash my face.
 * Butot mandith icifanda.
 * Sheve co orvidgents e. (I was asked to kill him.)

4) As a manner of the previous verb
To be percise, this is somehow informal. Similar to Japanese particle て, infinitive in casual usage can also refer to the method of how a verb is done. In very formal use, this should be done via the instrumental case of the gerund. In this case, the infinitive is always passive.
 * 走って来る.
 * I came with my running.
 * (informal) Pserot ithith.
 * (formal) Pserot ithidufh.

Imperative Mood
Imperative mood, unlike other moods, has two voices: passive and antipassive voices. In the passive (casual voice in Yorshaan), the adressee always plays the absolutive role in the sentence. Take the verb dageem (to see) example, its passive imperative dagea would be "Show yourself!" (Be seen!), while the antipassive imperative dagaha would then be "Look!".

Copula
There are several copulative verbs in Yorshaan, and the most common one is alonzh. Take "be happy" for example. The term sarale comprises two parts:1) sar, the stem of saruu (happiness) and 2) ale, the present first person singular form of alonzh. Together with other arguments to express more meaning: Remember that the verb alonzh is intransitive. In the 3rd example sentence the word gotaut is dative case of gota.
 * Co sarale. (I am happy.)
 * Co sarale rœe jicacte. (These books makes me happy.)
 * Con sarale. (I'm a tool used to please other people.)
 * Co ale gotaut sariys. (I'm like a happy bird.)
 * (Cf.) Cu ihy gota sariys. (I'm a happy bird.)

Negative form of participles
The suffix "ei" to all 3 regular groups of verbs represents negation.
 * asany (ending)
 * asanyei (never ending)

Voice for participles
Yorshaan has two voices, passive and antipassive voice, which can only be realized by participles though. Participles of some verbs are lack of either of two voices, but they all look like those in passive voice. Generally speaking, each group of verbs has its own infix for the antipassive voice participle. All antipassive participles of I verbs have the same stem as that in past tense.
 * Mei sontue egfortiavesy. (The history destined to be fortold.)
 * Rei sragai egfortesy. (The child destined to fortell.)
 * Mei sontue egfortiavesy rei sragui. (The history destined to be fortold by the child.)
 * Rei sragai egfortesy mei sontue. (The child destined to fortell the history.)

Adjectives and Adverbs
The boundary between adjectives and adverbs in Yorshaan is not so clear as English or other languages. For example, a word "ustiys" might be: The "ustiys" in the first sentence is actually adverb, and in the second one is adjective (as a subject complement). However, the difference is the location of stress. The stress falls on the first syllable of an adjective, and the last syllable of an adverb. See the stress section below for more information.
 * Itha ustiys. (He runs rapidly.)
 * Ohy ustiys. (He is rapid.)

Adjunct in different cases
Remember that adjuncts and nouns don't agree in case. An adjunct in instrumental case can modify a noun in ergative case. Since the adjunct form of a noun can be seen as "modifying form of a noun", each case of a adjunct has its very own meaning regardless the noun it modifies. But the absolutive and ergative adjunct share the same word (in other words, there's no difference.), and the vocative and genetive case doesn't exist.

Comparasion
There are four degrees of comparasion in Yorshaan: positive, comparative, relative superlative, and absolute superlative. Like Greek. The comparasion form of adjectives and adverbs share the same spelling as well. While comparing other things, these comparative (or relative superlative) adjuncts can be seen as III-verbs stems. According to the penult vowel, these verb stems can be devided into two groups.
 * III-E: a, e, i, æ (unround vowel)
 * III-O: o, u, œ (round vowel)

The syntax here is fixed, things that are compared must be put behind the adjunct. That is: The tense, mood and aspect shall be the same as the verb. The person and the number of the adjunct depends on the compared object.
 * Ihy fahijore do. (I'm more powerful than you.)
 * Ahy lontuzyiyso ce! (You are as blind as us!)
 * Sil uniy œrveem-bœzeg lyepijora e, Jomt prœ. (No one can kill other people more cruelly than him, Jomt.)
 * Jomtosy og mei cradai lyepijaran fronzyœ Yorshin. (Jomt was the most cruel man of the Yorshaan princes.)
 * Jomtosy og mei Atracradai lyepijaran. (Jomt was the most cruel man in(of) Atramia.)

Compound
To form compuond, one can easily piece together the stems of nouns. The order of the words does effect the meaning. Gerunds of verbs can also take part in, but not the stem of verbs.
 * Lhascrada (magician): lhas- (magic) + crada (man)
 * Omvyole (age of darkness): om- (darkness) + vyole (age, era)
 * Getarcrada (fortune teller)
 * Cradgetara (fate of a human)
 * Esarfilla (ending chapter): esar- (end) + filla (chapter)
 * Asfilla (wrong, though as is the verb stem of esaruu.)

Syntax
The word order of Yorshaan is somehow uncertain and unpredictable as for a declarative sentence. But the AEV form (absolute-ergative-verb) is the most common form.

Do joltot cu.    A        V         E

I hurt you.

Omiys aena id cu bavict.                       A                   E           V

I shall release your darkened soul.

Question
The interrogative pronouns must be in the front of a sentence, after the honorific pronoun "Stazen".
 * Pre bœzeg masaam du? (What can you do?)
 * Pro co du joltot? (Did you hurt me?)

Participle Clause
Participles in Yorshaan can be used as adjuncts or participles that form a clause. When forming a clause, the present participle often stands for active voice, while the past one refers to passive voice. Generally speaking, this pattern can be seen as: N PART (A...), where N refers to the modified noun, PART to participle, and (A...) to (no) argument(s).
 * Crada nacain. (A person (who was) believed in.)
 * Cradaz nacœnhain. (People who religiously believe.)
 * Cradaz nacœnhain Stazen . (People who believe in you, whom we cherish.)

Appositive
The word "pre" (absolutive what) is used to describe the appositive of a noun.(prounced as /pɹɨ/) Some possible structures might look like English.
 * Lanstin, unit crada gubiciys pre, bailyolt. (Lanstin, a rich man, giggles all the time.)

Participle Construction
Besides participles, adjectives can also be used to construct clauses. Adverbs can also be seperated from the main sentence though, their grammatic role is very different. The word pre is attached to the modified noun regardless of its case.
 * Sil roane, premc pre. Sil styone, pyoremc pre. (The place where is not here. The distination where is not thither.)
 * Birdain noneln, u pre saysohy vozuu. (He who wanders in the world is tired of everything.)

Conditional Sentence
Unlike other sentences, the word order of conditional sentences of Yorshaan must be either VEA or VAE, and the verb must be subjunctive mood. That is, the first word of a conditional sentence must be a subjunctive verb.

One important thing is that the tense of the subjunctive verb refers to the time when condition happens, unlike English.
 * Prœ ohy du, sil yisca Lanstin du? (If you weren't Lanstin, then who are you?)(Lit. Who are you, if you are not Lanstin?)
 * Æscœshtec do en, nyo nastiduvale. (If you sacrifice for us, we will be very sad.)

Conjunction "a"
A common conjunction in Yorshaan is "a" /ɤ/, used to connect two things having the same level together. It resembles "and" in English. In informal usage, the object after the conjunction "a" can be shorten and with the conjunction and hyphens form a word. The same part as the previous object is removed.
 * Præ nijan a prœ nijan. (Those who are invade and those who are being invaded.)
 * Edriys a-nast (a nastiys) none. (Painful and sad world.)
 * Pre mlamiom sontuu ohy dœssœrfiom a-ie-any (a diessiefany)! (Falsifying the history is and will never be forgivable!)

Stress
Stress sits at the last syllable in absolutive and vocative noun, but not in other cases. In words with more than three syllables, the stress often falls on the antepenult (the third syllable from the last). Once the noun is absolutive or vocative, the stress always falls on its last syllable (And the one that falls on antepenult becomes secondary stress).

Stress in verb is less common, but they always appear in the first syllable of optative perfect and subjuncitve perfect forms.

Stress of positive (non-comparative) adjectives always locate on the first syllable. On contrary, the stress of adverbs falls on the lasy syllable.

Unstress
These phenomena happen in a unstressed syllable that can be stressed in other cases (with the same spelling). While some always happen. That is, such phenomena would happen on the last syllable of "atomiys" (elegent) but never the second syllable of losyeniys (arrogant). Its pronunciation is either /ˈlosʲenis/ (as an adjective) or /losʲeˈnijs/ (as an adverb).
 * The /j/ consonant after a vowel or palatalization of a consonant would be removed.
 * "o" after another vowel changes from /o/ to /ɤ/.
 * A vowel followed by /l/, /ʎ/,  /m/, or /n/ reduces to schwa /ə/.
 * Any vowel in the syllable in font of a secondary stress becomes schwa /ə/. Though such phenomenon often happen in words comprising more than 3 syllables.
 * "a" reduces from /ɑ/ to /ʌ/ when not stressed (or at a secondary stress).

Labialization and Palatalization
Both labialization and palatalization is common in Yorshaan together with two letters "w" and "y" after another consonant. Yes, silimar to Russian, labialization and palatalization do make difference between words. Consider the two pairs of words: But labialization and palatalization can sometimes be removed due to stress. See the stress section below.
 * swede /sʷeˈde/ (ocean) vs sede /seˈde/ (earthworm)
 * unyuu /uˈnʲuː/ (east) vs unuu /uˈnuː/ (time)

Alternation of Labialization
Be aware that Yorshaan doesn't allow the labialization (and /w/) appear in front of the vowel /u/. As their alternation, and /β/ make appearance. That is:
 * swuteem /sβuteːm/ (to detect)
 * swine /sʷɪˈne/ (I was detected.)

W-Hyasa
In other words, "W-replacement". Such phenomenon only appears in the fourth declension of noun (sometimes called honorified noun), when the noun is refecting. Once a word stem ends with "y", the "y" must removed in order to attach the affix "wech" and "wach", which mean dative and genetive.
 * Rushyen (Russia)
 * Rushwach (Things belonging to Russia)
 * Rushwar (of Russia)
 * Anglen (England)
 * Anglwar (of England)

Pharyngealization
Pharyngealization is, however, less common than either labialization or palatalization in Yorshaan. The process is denoted by doubling the letter (Some letters are doubled without pharyngealization). Only t, d, s, and z can be pharyngealized (tt, dd, ss, and zz), which makes the process less common.
 * bœssœzeem /beˈsˤøze:m/ (to beunable to do)
 * ssabzaam /sˤʌbza:m/ (to stare)
 * ohtta /oxˈtˤɑ/ (language)
 * cazzuu /kʌˈzˤu:/ (power)

Vocabulary
The lexicon of Yorshaan can  be seen here: Yorshaan Lexicon.

Also there's another dictionary on conworkshop.

Relation with Atramia people
Atramia people live near where Yorshaan people do, hence its normal to see some Yorshaan words appear in Atramia language and vice versa.

On account to some historical reasons, Atramia people have seen Yorshaan as a "low level language" (Lingueğ Disim) and been sick of it for a long period of time. On the other hand, the Yorshaan people consider those Atramia people "arrogant travelers from the east" (Losyeniys Ænarmyancradaz).

Most of Yorshaan people believe in their ancient religion, whereas a number of Atramia people believe in Christianity. That's often a tricky problem between Atramia and Yorshaan society.
