kendane͡ivash:alphabet
There are 21 “consonants” in Kendane͡ivash and 11 “vowels”; these have separately defined alphabets.
The standard Latin transcription used by the author consists of all standard Latin characters, plus the extra character s̈ and minus c, w and x.
In other words, these Latin letters are used:
a | b | d | e | f | g | h | i | j | k | l | m | n | o | p | q | r | s | s̈ | t | u | v | y | z |
The consonant alphabet is transcribed as follows:
z | sh | s | r | l | h | b | p | n | m | v | f | th | t | d | j | g | q | k | ks | s̈ |
- f is more often rendered as ph
- k may be optionally rendered as c (such as in Valcen's name), usually when the author feels that using k would make the word look too much like someone slipped and fell into German.
The vowel alphabet is transcribed as follows:
o | u | a | i͡u | e͡i | i | i͡y | y | a͡i | u͡i | e |
