Dialect Notes

Archaic/Doriathren

The N doesn’t become DH before an R.

The M becomes MH instead of V.

Gondorians

Gondorians can’t pronounce CH. It becomes an H before vowels, and a C the rest of the time.

Only the most learned scholars would know more than the 4 most common types of Prestanneth. Liquid, Stop, DH and H mutations would be replaced with Vocalic mutation.

In Nasal mutation, they would leave RH and LH unmutated.
