About Future french
An estimated overview of the french language a few centuries from now (by the way this may not be taken seriosuly ,i'm just a random teenager having fun on the internet).
To make it look like I know what I'm doing, here is a list of the changes I imagined :
Phonetic:
<ɛ> and <e> merge into <e>
<ɥi> mutates to <ɪ>
<χ> becomes a distinct phoneme
<ᴚ> is removed in the C_# environnement (aka cadre -> kade)
<ə> is almost always elided, resulting in bigger consonant clusters.
Orthographical:
'é', 'è', 'ê' and sometimes 'ai' and 'eai' merge into 'ė'. (Also found as 'ē', especially in newspapers)
'qu' becomes 'k'
'ç' becomes 's'
The letter 'c' is gradually replaced by 's' or 'k'
'h' is removed when at the beginning of a word (except for loanwords).
Duplicated consonants such as 'mm', 'pp' or 'tt' are simplified.
'à', 'â', 'ù', 'ü', 'ë', 'ï' and 'î' are removed.
Historical spelling (a.k.a those nasty silent consonants) is removed.
In addition to all of this I simplified the conjugation and added a lot of english and some arabic loanwords.
You can see this as my romlanging phase, or the butchering of my own mother tongue.
Or both, i don't mind.
