Conlang Idea: Sargonian's "Half voicing"

I came up with a new concept for one of my Arknights fanlangs. I call it "half-voicing" where, in addition to them being fully voiced or voiceless, consonants can be part voiced and part voiceless. For example: /s/,/sz/,/z/, and/zs/ where the second and fourth are considered the same as the first and/or third just with half voicing and starting at one voiced state before going into the other one (hope that makes sense). This was inspired by a character from one of the regions of the game's setting. specifically, his name "Lugalszargus" in which the "sz" sequence caught my attention. Personally, I feel that the continuants such as nasals, fricatives, and approximates would be more noticeable in half voicing. This also applies to the various afficate-like combined consonants such as: /pf/, /pv/, /bv/, and /bf/. when combining all that together, it gives me quite the set of phonemes to work with.

Poll Conlang: Obstruents part 1

5 votes in 5 different places... But I can pick a winner based on how the subcomponents played out.

Three of the votes were in the minimal nasals category, compared to two in the max. So so far we have /m/ and potentially an assymilating /n/. I'll write those <m> and <n> for the time being.

The other option was relatively well distributed; the only category to get two votes was no liquids. Typologically that's kind of rare and implies our /n/ might have some liquid properties as the nearest kind of sonorant. Maybe our n can be a nasal tap?

--

So obstruents are where a lot of the meat of consonant information lies.

Obstruent stops are kind of prototypical. If we don't have any other kind of obstruent we'll have stops.

Almost all languages have a sibilant of some kind, /s/. For physical, phonetic reasons, the sibilant often can be completely invisible to the sonorant hierarchy, allowing it to often form clusters in languages that otherwise avoid clusters. The sibilant is prototypically a (front, i.e. dental or alveolar) coronal (it makes its characteristic sound by directing air stream to the teeth) and often, if voiced, is only voiced secondarily, for example between vowels or by assimilation. Sometimes neighboring sounds, like /z/, or the back coronals end up acting like the true sibilant, but usually this is more for historical reasons (inheriting a sibilant's information load) than phonetic. We (I guess I and one other person) decided against having back coronals, however, and the exact phonetics of /s/ can be decided on on a later date. So for now it's pretty much just a binary choice, have a sibilant or not.

Maybe the second most important question is whether to contrast non-sibilant fricatives and non-fricatives. Many Australian languages do not and many Dravidian languages do not. Of the world's languages, about 9% lack them entirely, altho most of these make an except for /h/, which is usually just a debuccalized something else and not a true fricative.

It's kind of a thing statistically that /p/ is less common in languages spoken by people living an agricultural lifestyle, often shifting to /f/. This has been attributed to recent shifts how we use our jaws and the evolutionary pressures on them, and does seem to be statistically real. But, eh, I don't know how much stock I put into the hypothesis.

It's rare to have fricatives without sibilants. I don't even know of any truly; Turkmen has /θ/ where other Turkish languages have /s/ but in practice /θ/ just acts like a sibilant and as far as I can tell is maybe best understood as just a dental s being a little extra.

Obstruents usually come with degrees of secondary phonation; many languages have 2~3 series of stops and a similar number of non-sibilant distinctions. Because that's a large number of choices to compound and compounds with fricatives, I'll leave it to next time.

Another question is affricates. But what are underlyingly palatal stops usually just get realized as afficates phonetically for physiological reasons. Usually when there are others it's because they come from palatals, such as shifting tʃ -> ts. If we have no sibilant, there'd be strong pressure on one of these to become it. Probably something we can decide once we clean up whether our front or back dorsals are palatal or uvular.

After Henri  Toulouse-Lautrec This fragmnet of one of his affice the beginning of the Quadrille in the Moulin Rouge. Lautrec was affice designer, painter and chronicler of his time, the “belle époque”. As we can see in the complete painting by Lautrec Quadrille above in de Moulin Rouge 1892 oil on cardboard overall: 81 x 59.8 cm the one in the national gallery .

The detail I found now Available is more or less the same size oil on Board Not by Lautrec but 70- 80 years of age and a nice decorative piece to be framed and she Need to find a nice new home or other location 😉 !  AVAILABLE #toulouselautrec #paris #moulinrouge #henrilautrec #cancandancing #bellepoque #painting #drawing #affice #quadrillemoulinrouge #interior #interiirdesign #1stdibs #art #artcollectors #artworkvision #michelstichter #throwback #artoninstagram
