Omawatian language

The Omawatian language (Standard Omawate: Кису Омавате/Kisu Omawate; Sinitic soon, Koreanic: 키수 오마와테, Japonic: きすオマワテ/語オマワテ) is an Omawatic language and the official national language of Omawate.
==History==
The history of the language stretches back to the first tribal settlements. The language was built upon eight phonemes: three vowels (/a/, /i/ and /u/) and five consonants (/p/, /t/, /k/, /m/ and /n/). The language seemed to have a slow development, yet still considered vital for such, and most of the phonemes were still basic ones.
===Creation of the dialects===
By the arrival of the Soviets, new dialects were created.
==Dialects==
Omawatian is divided into a series of accents, as described below.
===Standard Omawate===
Standard Omawate is also known as Tomoweru Omawate. This dialect is spoken in much of the country
===Sinitic Omawate===
This dialect is spoken in parts of Omawate and by the Sinitic Omawatian diaspora in Sondria. The dialect has a few traits of the Mandarin language and the phonetics and terminology are closer to that of Mandarin than Omawate.
==Phonology==
Vowels: /a, e, i, o, u/
Consonants: /p, t, k, m, n, ŋ, s, ts, f, l, r, h, j, w/
==Writing systems==
===Nari===
Nari, also known as Classic Omawate, is a script devised in the 10th century, conceived in 954 at earliest. Over time, the Nari alphabet - formerly an abugida - began developing new letters in order to accomodate changes to phonology.
===Standard Omawate===
The official writing system for the standard dialect is Cyrillic. It is used since the 1920s when the Cyrillic script was imposed under government control as means to combat illiteracy and is still used today. The current Omawate alphabet is as follows: Аа, Бб, Вв, Гг, Дд, Ее, Ёё, Жж, Ии, Йй, Кк, Ққ, Лл, Мм, Нн, Ңң, Оо, Пп, Рр, Сс, Тт, Уу, Фф, Хх, Цц, Чч, Шш, Ыы, Ээ, Юю, Яя.
Official romanization is used, but not a lot, and goes as follows: Aa, Bb, CHch, Dd, Ee, Ff, Gg, Hh, Ii, Jj, Kk, Ll, Mm, Nn, NGng, Oo, Pp, Qq, Rr, Ss, Tt, TSts, Uu, Üü, Ww, Yy. Some people use Zz for TSts or Vv for Üü.
===Sinitic Omawate===
Sinitic Omawate uses Chinese characters, but not exclusively. It's usually the reverse of the Japonic system: emphasis is put on Chinese characters while some Hiragana is used to express terminologies not used in the characters.
===Koreanic Omawate===
Koreanic Omawate is largely reliant on Korean syllables. However this system consists of a handful of shortcomings.
===Japonic Omawate===
Japonic Omawate relies on a mixture of Japanese kana and kanji, with limited additional letters. This system is used by the Oriencian Omawates.
===Romanization===
The first romanization of Omawatian came in 1929, inspired by the Uniform Turkic Alphabet. There were 25 letters, one for each phoneme. However the initial alphabet was criticized by many:
Aa, Bʙ, Cc, Dd, Ee, Ff, Gg, Hh, Ii, Jj, Kk, Qq, Ll, Mm, Nn, N̡ᶇ, Oo, Pp, Rr, Ss, Şş, Tt, Uu, Vv, Zz, Ƶƶ
There were a few shortcomings with this version of the script. Z was used to represent the normal TS letter and Ƶ was used for J. Since there was no separate "zh" phoneme, the letter in question was met with a number of issues. C represented CH, V represented W and J represented Y.
In 1930, the alphabet was rearranged.
Aa, Bʙ, Cc, Dd, Ee, Ff, Gg, Hh, Ii, Jj, Kk, Qq, Ll, Mm, Nn, N̡ᶇ, Oo, Pp, Rr, Ss, Şş, Tt, Uu, Ww, Yy, Zz.
J now represented the Nari J, V was switched with W and Y was added.
