North Tongue

Thuloth is the official language of {nation to be named as of yet} and has a native speaking population of roughly {number yet to be determined}. General comprehension of Thuloth is the highest around the planet on which it is used due to its prevalence in commerce and science, partnered with the historical hegemony that its birth nation used to enjoy.

Accents
The type of Thuloth detailed here follows the Standard Academic Thuloth as is used in media broadcasting and written literature. It is the historical accent of the educated echelons in the nation and has the benefit of appearing geographically neutral. Accent variation within the archipelago is rich and diverse to the extent that accent can change between villages; however, geographical areas tend to follow general and historical pronunciation patterns.

Phonology
As the anatomy of the alien race that speaks Thuloth and related languages is of a humanoid nature, the phonology of the race is similar, also. Thuloth has a wide range of consonants and vowels.

Vowel
Vowels in Thuloth have pure sounds. Diphthongs do not form in standard speech, and triphthongs do not exist in even the most lax of slang or dialects. Stress is often indicated by having macron situated above the stressed vowel. This is particularly important is distinguishing between words of the same written spelling but different meaning.

Sonority Hierarchy
The sonority hierarchy for Thuloth is almost identical to that of human languages due to the physiological proximity of the two races. The hierarchy itself helps to control what consonant clusters are possible within the language as either initial or terminal clusters: The meaning of this is that less sonorous sounds must begin the syllable and end it, with the most sonorous sounds making up the nucleus of the syllable.
 * open vowels > mid-vowels > close vowels and glides > trill > laterals > nasals > voiced fricatives > voiceless fricatives > voiced plosives > voiceless plosives
 * a > e o > i u y w ʍ > r > l > m n > z v ʒ > s f θ ʃ x h > b d g > p t k

Monosyllabic Rules
There are precise rules when it comes to consonant clusters, including the legal possibilities within Thuloth as to what may commence a consonant cluster and which morphemes are not allowed to be part of a cluster. The constraints are as follows:
 * 1) All syllables have a vowel-based nucleus.
 * 2) All consonants can act as an onset.
 * 3) No geminates.
 * 4) No /h/ in the syllable coda.
 * 5) Onset /h/, /x/, /ʒ/, /ʃ/ and /ʍ/ can not form complex onsets.

Preamble to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
Whereas recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world,

Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people,

Whereas it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law,

Whereas it is essential to promote the development of friendly relations between nations,

Whereas the peoples of the United Nations have in the Charter reaffirmed their faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person and in the equal rights of men and women and have determined to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom,

Whereas Member States have pledged themselves to achieve, in co-operation with the United Nations, the promotion of universal respect for and observance of human rights and fundamental freedoms,

Whereas a common understanding of these rights and freedoms is of the greatest importance for the full realization of this pledge,

Now, Therefore THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY proclaims THIS UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS as a common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations, to the end that every individual and every organ of society, keeping this Declaration constantly in mind, shall strive by teaching and education to promote respect for these rights and freedoms and by progressive measures, national and international, to secure their universal and effective recognition and observance, both among the peoples of Member States themselves and among the peoples of territories under their jurisdiction.
