Omojideki

Omojian (known as Omoji Deki [ ɔm ɔ dʒi d ɛ kʰi]   natively ) is a language commonly spoken by the people of the Omojian Archipelago; a floating archipelago scattered above the Earth, but descends from a long-lost planet named P ÿzkÿrjȧ. It is the native language of 1.2 billion people and is the official language and lingua franca of the Omojian Archipelago.

Classification and Dialects
Omojian is a part of the Älgö- P ÿzkic lannguage family within the same branch as Old Jabotanese and heavily borrows grammatical features and vocabulary from the Clobzkan and Abzaahric language; two languages that are on the  Älgögic branch rather than on the  P ÿzkic branch.

In order to bridge the civilisations found across the many islands, Omojian is written in three different writing systems based on the cultural background of said islands.

Consonants

 * There are no geminates.


 * / ð / can only occur at the beginning of a word whilst / θ/ can only occur at the end; preventing gemination.

Vowels
There are also some combinations of vowels that are treated as 'special vowels'.
 * The dot indicates that there is a break in between these two vowels.
 * Every vowel can form a dipthong with any other vowel; this includes special vowels forming with other vowels or special vowels.
 * /m/, /n/, /l/ and /ɾ/ can all be used in place of vowels; however they cannot form any dipthongs.
 * /i/, /u/, /ɛ/, /ɔ/ and /a/ all have aspirated forms separate from their voiced forms; represented with / ̤ /.

Orthography
Even though Omojian is typically written in either of the three scripts, it is very difficult to type in Omojian due to the fact that these scripts can't be correctly formatted by any computing system to this day. To ease in communication, a romanised script has been adapted to the language to ease in typing in Omojian.
 * this is / ɾ / when used as a consonant


 * this is / ɾ / when used as a vowel or in a dipthong.

Vowel Length
Just like in languages like Japanese or Thai, the length of the vowel helps to denote meaning. If ignored, this can cause major problems in communications.


 * The short length only applies to the vowels /a/ and /ɛ/.
 * The short length vowels are pronounced in a detatched fashion.

Tones
Although they are not entirely necessary as beginners and children will still be understood to a degree without them, but they do help convey your message better.

There are five tones in Omojian, but only effect the following vowels: /a/, / ɛ/, /i/, / ɔ/, /u/ and /y/.


 * Tones only affect the middle-length vowels.

Phonotactics
The basic structure is (C)(C)V(C/V)(C)(C). The consonants that can cluster are: All consonants except   / ɲ/, / ŋ/, / tʃ/, /d ʒ/, /kx/, /x/, / θ/, / ð/, /j/, /w/ or / ɾ/ can cluster with /l/.
 * /p ʰ s/
 * /bz/
 * /dz/
 * /kʰs/
 * /gz/
 * /pʃ/
 * /bʒ/

All consonants except / ɲ/, / ŋ/, / tʃ/, /d ʒ/, /kx/, /x/, / θ/, / ð/, /j/ or / ɾ/ can be labialised.

All consonants except / ɲ/,  / tʃ/,  /d ʒ/,  / θ/,  / ð/,  / ɾ/ or /w/ can be palatalised.

Writing System
In Omojian, there are three main scripts: Jabotanese, Abzaahric and Clobzkan. The Jabotanese script is an alphabet system that forms characters similar to Korean whilst Abzaahric and Clobzkan are abugidas in similar vains to Hindi and Thai.

Jabotanese

Jabotanese characters are made up of symbols that each represent a sound. Similar to Korean, you stack these symbols to create characters. Unlike Korean, the pattern that is used to form these characters aren't very predicatble but are generally written from the top left corner to the bottom right corner. You have to remember the tones necessary in each character as the characters don't reference which tones to use.

Characters can be comprised of multiple syllables. Some consonants have two different symbols for the same sound.
