Petankian Phonemes

Hello there, Name's here.

This is an updated version of Petankian phonemes. In the old episode there was a table of existing phonemes in Petankian, and the table itself is still valid so if you prefer IPA chart, then visit the old one.

This time I will be including Petankian linguistics. It's like German calling dative a third case.

So, let's talk about vowels. It's straight forward.

a = ɐ
e = ɛ
i = i
o = o
u = ʉ
oi = ɨ (Russian ы)
ou = ə (just voice)

And now consonants. It's bit weird for linguists, but I couldn't really come up with other good names.

There are three categories; variational, fricative and approximant.

Variational has three more sub-categories; normal, soft and hard.

It might be easier to understand if I put it in groups.

From left, it's normal/soft/hard consonants.
m,p,bi(mi)
n,t,di(ni)
h,k,gi(hi),qi(hi)
w,f,vi(wi)

The hard consonants can be pronounced as the brackets when there is a vowel before them, and most of the case it's preferred to pronounced as the brackets when the conditions were met.

Fricative is categoly you would think. Sound related to s.
Group c
c (s)
s (ɕ, soft sh)
cs (ʃ, sh, sch)

Group z
z (z)
zs (ʑ)
zcs (ʒ)

Group x
xc (θ)
xz (ð)

Approximant is basically leftovers.
r (Russian р)
l
j (/j/, y)
x (ç, it's not in fricative group x.)
y (ʝ, spanish y)

And there are some other sounds that are not categorized.
ht = t̪
hd = d̪

I think this is it. I hope it is clear for you. See you in the next episode. Bye bye
