Venedic

Venedic
Venedic is an alt-history romance conlang. The key point of this alt-history is the Roman empire advancing eastward up to the Dnieper river. The easternmost romance languages of this universe is called Venedic.

Venedic uses Cyrillic script with some additional letters but Latin script is also used but only for the purpose of transliteration.

Venedic vowels are:

a [ɑ] o [o] у [u] е [e̞] и [i]

Venedic vowels are reduced in unstressed position. The reduction depends on the dialect but in standard Venedic the system works as a reducing to [ə], o to [ʊ] and e to [jɪ] but most modern speakers don't distinguish between reduced a and o pronouncing both as [ə]. Some dialects go even further having an only one reduced sound [ə] for a, o and e.
