Languary - Day 4

To make a noun plural, the final vowel becomes ī (for long vowels) or i (for short vowels).

What if the final vowel already is one of those, you ask?

Simple! That's not allowed! In the language reforms (that's the best term I can come up with for it), any word that had a final ī or i had it changed to u. Some dialects did not change, and that's considered a sign of the speaker being rural and/or uneducated.

The Sivrit, an important* minority, tend to not correctly pluralize nouns at all: instead of changing the final vowel, they add -el to words, which is how words are pluralized in the Sivrit language.

I've also added some diphthongs to the vowel complement of Gavāth: āi, ēi, and ui.

*Important in story terms, not in political terms within the empire.
