## Trivia

* Bujanski was based on Russian, with less Greco-Roman influences, archaic terms, and the letter æ (ѣ).
	+ Some words were derived from American English and Russian, usually for concepts introduced by dimensional travellers and explorers who visited Earth (such as Christianity and Islam); or more recently from the Terran aristocrats and tyrants who oppressed Bujan under Wannaenid rule.
	+ Bujanski itself is the "standard language" or "lingua franca" of modern Jerde, similar to English in our world.
	+ Unlike Russian, Bujanski tends to shorten long words.
	+ Long vowels exist in Bujanski, and double consonants are lengthened as in Sarmelonid or Finnish.
	+ From 2022 onwards, the author considered adding Old Church Slavonic and Old East Slavic words to expand the language, to make it more distinct from Russian. As a result, Bujanski was meant to be like Icelandic or Turkish, with many archaic words being used to create non-native concepts instead of borrowed from other languages.
* @ - -o if the speaker or subject is male, -a if the speaker or subject is female.
* -y usually forms the plural of a word, but if a word ends with a -ǐ, then use -i; and if a word ends with a -y, use -je.
* (Sr) - Sarmelonid loanword. In older times, the people of Bujan used Sarmelonid words as their claims for being the "successors of the Sarmelonids". Now, they are mostly used for classical or ceremonial settings.
* (Sa) - Sanskrit loanword. Many Sanskrit loanwords, mostly related to Hinduism and Buddhism, were derived from the Porasonid pronunciation, hence "h" becoming "j" after consonants. Hinduism was an influence for classical art and chivalry to both the ancient Wonaos and the Bujanski Slavs, continuing to this day. Recently some Ontemazei of Bujan consulted with their Porasonid relatives on how to properly observe Hinduism.
	+ -y- in clusters usually becomes e or -ej, or -aje if the original word ends in e,
		- e.g. madhya (middle, medial) - madeja, madea
	+ aspirated -h for some consonants becomes -j.
		- e,g, dharma (law, justice, path) - djarama, djarma
	+ -ri becomes -ry (e.g. rtu "season" - rytu)
* (Es) - Eosome loanword. It is one of the official languages of Bujan, as it is the common language of the native peoples.

### Pronunciation:

* a - [a]; [ä] as long vowel, after j, n, r, or at the end of words in formal pronunciation; [ʌ] unstressed
* ā - long vowel
* æ - [æ]
	+ Bujanski proudly use ѣ, pronounced as [æ] in their Slavic language, as one of their cultural symbols. They also used it when they defeated the Zavtranians who waged war against their monarchy centuries ago, and once again during their revolution against Wannaenid rule.
* č - [t͡ʂ], [t͡ɕ] when palatalised
* dž - [d͡ʐ], [d͡ʑ] when palatalised
* -ij - [iː]
	+ As an adjective ending, functionally it is a variant of і̄ (long i).
	+ -ый and -ий have been merged into "-ij" in Bujanski.
* ǐ - [ʲ], palatalises preceding consonant
* j - [j]
	+ In Bujanski, "j" is always written as "ј", as a separate consonant. No j-vowels (like я/ja and ю/ju) exist in Common letters for Bujanski, but they do in the traditional Bujanski alphabet.
	+ The only j-vowel that does exist in Common Bujanski is ѻ, jo, a form of "јо" only used for the word "I/myself". All other instances of "jo" are always written in Common as "јо", as separate letters.
* kh - [x]
* l - always [l]
	+ never [ɫ] as in Russian or [w] as in Polish (now for all instances of "l", formerly for palatalised "l")
* n - [n], [ŋ] before velars
* nǐ - [ɲ]
	+ If -nǐ exists at the end of a word, it palatalises the preceding consonant
* š - [ʂ], [ɕ] when palatalised
* šč - [ɕ(t͡ɕ)]
* ŭ - [ɯ] or [o]
	+ Its letter, ъ, is considered as a variant of ѵ (y). When at the start of a word or the first syllable, it is pronounced as [o].
	+ Mostly used only to transcribe difficult or unusual consonant clusters that do not exist in native Bujanski phonology. So in an unusual cluster they add this vowel between some of the consonants to make it easier to pronounce.
	+ For example, "sprkl". In Bujanski it would be "sp**o**r**ŭ**kl**ŭ**", written as "сп**ъ**р**ъ**кл**ъ**".
* y - [ɯ~y], [-ø~ə]
	+ The pronunciation of æ and y - ѣ and ѵ - as [æ] and [y] (never [je] or [ɨ] as in corresponding Russian е and ы), is what makes some Terrans think that Bujanski sounds like Finnish, along with the existence of long vowels in Bujanski.
	+ As the plural -y, it is often pronounced as [-ø] and written as "и". For example, krȳsy ("rats") is spelled as "крѵ̄си" and pronounced as [ˈkryːsø]
* ž - [ʐ], [ʑ] when palatalised
