=== Come one, come all! ===
Hey y'all! I'm Fyorr, and that's about it. My pronouns are He/They, and my timezone is US Central Time. Message me in English or Turkish about anything, but specifically any of the following: 
* linguistics & conlanging, obv 
* worldbuilding & culturebuilding 
* dark cabaret 
* the Caretaker 
* analog horror 
The fastest way to contact me is over on Discord at @fyorr. 
I'm one of the collaborators on the Pollasena project, so if you have any questions about that as a whole, probably send those to pollasena@conlang.org, but I don't have access to that email right now, so it'll be someone else replying. 

=== Ah, right, conlanging ===
Right now, my main focus is on Pollasena, particularly [[Kilīmos-sāîl]]. In that project, I've also been working on Kilīmos-sāîl's daughter languages (only a few of which have names so far—in order of level of development; Rąhaú, Kjinsaî, Dejzarāe and Šekč), Thuōsha', Selleqinna, and Tyńēzam. Beyond Pollasena, I'm also working on some Indo-European languages, Kingmedrian (in Northumbria) and Siadjiri (in the Faiyum Oasis), and a Sinitic language, [[Hraayan]] (in Maritime SE Asia). I'm also brainstorming ideas about a Koine-Aramaic creole descendant, but nothing on that for awhile probably.

'''Hraayan''' is a language spoken by approximately 63 million people in the Republic of Hraaya in Southeast Asia. Although the origins of the language are still a topic of debate within the linguistic community, most scholars agree that Hraayan is Sinitic in origin with heavy Austronesian influence, with minorities believing the language is a distinct branch in the Trans-Himalayan language family. Broad consensus is that Hraayan diverged from Old Chinese some time in the mid-1st millennium BCE, its speakers migrating southward, whereafter they first settled near the Mekong Delta and later in their present location. It serves as the native language of the Hraay ethnic group and is spoken natively by the majority of Hraaya.

==Etymology==
The etymology of the ethnonym ''Hraay'', and thus of the name ''ngan Hraay'', is unknown (although ''ngan'' is derived from Old Chinese 言 ''*ŋan'' "speech"). A formerly common theory is that it is related to the word ''Hraang'' "oriole" (from Old Chinese 鶬 ''*[s.r̥]ˤaŋ''), though modern consensus is that the oriole as a national symbol is a later conflation due to phonological similarity with the word ''Hraay'' rather than a direct etymological link.

|{{small|''Hraay'' is descended from Old Chinese 蔡 ''*s.r̥ˤat-s'', from the name of the Cai state.}}
|}
</center>
==Orthography==
Hraayan is today written using a reduced from of the Latin alphabet, consisting of 22 letters. It makes no use of diacritics and borrowed words are always adapted to the native alphabet in official contexts, though in colloquial contexts spelling alterations are not made, and the Hraayan keyboard layout is broadly identical to the English one.

Through frequent reforms by the Hraayan Language Association (''Wu Ning yi Ngan Hraay'', commonly abbreviated as ''WNNH''), Hraayan spelling is broadly up-to-date with its pronunciation, although some digraphs are used.
==Phonology==
===Consonants===
Hraayan's consonant inventory consists of 22 phonemes.

All letters for Hraayan consonants correspond to their IPA equivalents, except for the following:
*/ɾ/ and /j/ are written with ''r'' and ''y'' respectively.
*The phonemes /ŋ/, /kʷ/, /ɡʷ/, /ʍ/, /ɾ̥/ and /ɾ/ are written with the digraphs ''ng'', ''kw'', ''gw'', ''hw'' and ''hr'' respectively.
===Vowels===
Hraayan's consonant inventory consists of 5 phonemes.

|-

[ɪ] and [ʊ] exist as an allophones of /i/ and /u/ after /j/ and /w ʍ/. [ɛ] and [ɔ] exist as an allophones of /e/ and /o/ in the final syllables of polysyllabic words, though this is only typical of the Songulute dialect.

All letters for Hraayan vowels correspond to their IPA equivalents.
===Stress===
Stress in Hraayan is always word-initial. Classifiers are always unstressed.
===Phonotactics===
The maximum licit syllable structure in Hraayan is CVN/Ct; a word-final coda may consist of any of /n ŋ t s w j r nt wt jt/. Compounds which would violate these phonotactics instead simplify (e.g ''ihanot'' 'dream' + ''kuwut'' 'bad' > ''ihanokuwut'' 'nightmare').

==Grammar==
===Morphology===
Much like its presumed closest relatives in China, Hraayan has a strongly isolating grammar. Only one sublexical morpheme is used productively: the affix -yu, which marks pluractionality of the subject. It is placed on the verb, as a suffix by default, but if the verb root ends in a consonant, the affix is instead infixed, preceding this final consonant. This affix precedes the classifier and is the only morpheme to split a stem from its classifier in such a way.

Right now, my main focus is on Pollasena, particularly [[Kilīmos-sāîl]]. In that project, I've also been working on Kilīmos-sāîl's daughter languages (only a few of which have names so far— in order of level of development; Rąhaú, Kjinsaî, Dejzarāe and Šekč), Thuōsha', and Selleqinna. Beyond Pollasena, I'm also working on Kingmedrian (my first foray into a posteriori), an IELang spoken in Northumbria, and [[Hraayan]] (my first ''fleshed out'' foray into a posteriori). I'm also brainstorming ideas about a Koine-Aramaic creole descendant, but nothing on that for awhile probably.

Kilīmos-sāîl is a Wasc language spoken in the west of the continent of Ternium, largely along the banks of the Vinajkâm River and Sea. It is the native language of the Kingdom of Kilīmos and, after the fall of this kingdom and of the Itśenāzam Empire, grows to become the lingua franca of West Ternium as a whole.

==Etymology==
The name ''Kilīmos-sāîl'' derives from the Wascotl *quįli-mos scaqu-ila, "the language of the land of royalty". Likewise, the name of the Kingdom of Kilīmos, the state in which Kilīmos-sāîl is mostly spoken, is derived from *quįli-mos, "the land of royalty".

===Stress===

Kilīmos-sāîl has strict lexical stress, though this is often unpredictable. As a logography, the Kilimossu writing system does not represent this, but in the romanization, this is reflected through a series of diacritics.
{| class="wikitable" style=text-align:center
!Diacritics
!Default Unstressed
!Default Stressed
|-
!Short
|'''a'''
|â
|-
!Long
|á
|'''ā'''
|}
The general rule of thumb is that, if a word has a long vowel, this vowel is stressed. If it has multiple long vowels, the order of priority for stress is penultimate > antepenultimate > other last vowel. If no long vowel is present, this same order is applied to the short vowels of the word (so that any such multisyllabic word will have penultimate stress). Any word whose stress pattern can be explained through this series of rules will use no diacritic (a) for a short vowel and a macron (ā) for a long vowel.
{| class="wikitable" style=text-align:center
!Example
!Stress
|-
|''aspatsu'' "scholarly"
|as'''pat'''su
|-
|''pānossil'' "salt"
|'''pā'''nossil
|-
|''ēankajdā'' "king"
|ēankaj'''dā'''
|}
For any exceptions to the above rules, two other diacritics are used. A circumflex (â) represents a short vowel which is irregularly stressed, whereas an acute (á) represents a long vowel which is irregularly unstressed. If an irregularity is expressed through a circumflex, then the use of an acute is not necessary for any other long vowels.
{| class="wikitable" style=text-align:center
!Example
!colspan="2"|Stress
|-
|''âvzize'' "to stop"
|'''âv'''zize
|-
|''ēânsos'' "tight"
|ē'''ân'''sos
|-
|''rēváan'' "purity"
|'''rē'''váan

Kilīmos-sāîl is a Wasc language spoken in the west of the continent of Ternium, largely along the banks of the Vinajkâm River and Sea. It is the native language of the Kingdom of Kilīmos and, after the fall of this kingdom and of the Itśenāzam Empire, grows to become the lingua franca of West Ternium as a whole.

==Etymology==
The name ''Kilīmos-sāîl'' derives from the Wascotl *quįli-mos scaqu-ila, "the language of the land of royalty". Likewise, the name of the Kingdom of Kilīmos, the state in which Kilīmos-sāîl is mostly spoken, is derived from *quįli-mos, "the land of royalty".

Kilīmos-sāîl is a Wasc language spoken in the west of the continent of Ternium, largely along the banks of the Vinajkâm River and Sea. It is the native language of the Kingdom of Kilīmos and, after the fall of this kingdom and of the Itśenāzam Empire, grows to become the lingua franca of West Ternium as a whole.

=== Come one, come all! ===
Hey y'all! I'm Fyorr, and that's about it. My pronouns are He/They, and my timezone is Central Time. Message me in English or Turkish about anything, but specifically any of the following: 
* linguistics & conlanging, obv 
* worldbuilding & culturebuilding 
* dark cabaret 
* the Caretaker 
* analog horror 
The fastest way to contact me is over on Discord at @fyorr. 
I'm one of the collaborators on the Pollasena project, so if you have any questions about that as a whole, probably send those to pollasena@conlang.org, but I don't have access to that email right now, so it'll be someone else replying. 

=== Ah, right, conlanging ===
Right now, my main focus is on Pollasena, particularly [[Kilīmos-sāîl]]. In that project, I've also been working on Kilīmos-sāîl's daughter languages (only a few of which have names so far— in order of level of development; Rąhaú, Kjinsaî, Dejzarāe and Šekč), Thuōsha', and Selleqinna. Beyond Pollasena, I'm also working on Kingmedrian, an IELang spoken in Northumbria (my first foray into a posteriori), and an as-of-yet unnamed Sinitic language (my first ''fleshed out'' foray into a posteriori) spoken broadly along the Sulu and Celebes Seas.
