Earlier this week, there was a thread about the naturalness of a system with
both voiced and uncoived stops, but only unvoiced fricatives. I thought
somebody 'd like to now that one of my sketchier conlangs, Siréazh ([sre:aZ]
- this is the Tairezazh term; haven't worked out what the native is yet!)
had the following cutish system of stops and fricatives during a period of
it evolution
p t k
f s x
b d g
v B z D G R
Later this was simplified by B>v, D>z, G>zero and R>G. It may be noted that
/R/ is from earlier /G/ ...
