Description[edit | edit source]
This conlang is my attempt at a challenge, set by my friend, to create a language using only two letters - a and k. Following these parameters makes for quite an irregular and unique (as far as I know) conning, and one that I would never have the courage to try and learn. I hope it is of interest to somebody.

Vowel Forms[edit | edit source]
Akka vowels can take a number of different forms:
Primary Form: When the vowel appears after a consonant, For example kAkk
Secondary Form: When the vowel appears at the end of a word, after a consonant, For example kakA
Tertiary Form: When the vowel appears by itself or with another vowel, For example A or AA
Vowels in the primary form use the front open (a) sound
Vowels in Secondary form use the front close mid (e) sound
Vowels in tertiary form use the back open (a) sound when there is one vowel; when their are two vowels together, the vowel is pronounced using the front close mid (e) sound
Consonant Forms[edit | edit source]
Consonants also take forms.
K is pronounced plosive velar (K) normally
When occurring as a double at the start of a word, KK is pronounced dental fricative (theta) sound
When occurring as a double after a vowel, aKK is pronounced post alveolar fricative sound
For example: kkakakk (θaKa
