Bahric

General information
If completed in time, this will be entered into the Romlang Challenge (probably, anyway).

Bahric is a Romance language that developed in Germany following the fall of the Roman empire. It belongs to the Bahro-Etric branch of the Romance languages, a group that died out in 1400 AD. Bahric was revived sometime around 1940AD, and nowadays has a stable speaking population of approximately 800.

Consonants
Orthographical representation in brackets.

Syllabic Consonants:
The following sonorants are capable of acting as vowels: m, n, l, r, and s. When they do, it is not indicated in the native script; however, here it is marked with a subscript: ̩̩m̩ n̩ l̩ r̩ s̩.

Phonotactics
Syllables are (C)(C)V(Y)(C)(s), where Y is an approximant.

Nouns
Nominal inflection requires two roots (and the gender: either masculine or feminine). These are the nominative and accusative singular. It also requires the article be supplied with the noun. The examples below are for laps, laped (m.) 'stone'; sŏr, sŏror (f.) 'sister'; and mods, mod (m.) 'world'.

Laps and sŏr represent the two genders of the third declension. Mod represents the masculine of the second declension (there is no first declension; the names derive from Latin grammars). There is a feminine second declension, but the only difference between its declension and that of mond is in the use of -awr instead of -or in the plural genitive (for both articles and the noun).

N.B: Some second declension nouns use a string of vowels instead of just one in the genitive suffix (this does not affect the articles though). This string always ends in the appropriate vowel for gender (o or aw), and is followed by r to create the full suffix.

Note that third-declension nouns have two distinct roots, which must be learned independently (these are the two citation forms). The second, however, has only one root (The second of the citation roots e.g. for 'world', mod).

Adjectives
Adjectives require two roots for declension (nom. and acc. m.); the process of adjectivial declension is similar to nouns. The examples below use two adjectives: vĕts, vĕtĕr "old" and bŏns, bŏn "good".

Bŏn and vĕts are second and third declension adjectives respectively. The number of roots and which is the primary one are the same as for nouns.
