Scaurwél dialect

The Scaurwél dialect is a dialect of Etrandish spoken on the Island of Scaurwél, albeit it might be more appropriate to classify it as a separate language, due to it having evolved, split off from Middle Etrandish some time between 400 and 500 AEKE. It was heavily influenced by the Late Hulran language, and continues to be influenced by the Etrancoasti language even to this day.

Evolution from Middle Etrandish

 * Unlike in Standard Etrandish and other dialects, the Scaurwél dialect preserved the distinctions between and,  and ,  and
 * Standard Etrandish and other dialects merged these pairs as respectively. In contrast, the Scaurwél merged  with  instead,  with  instead. The later diphthongization of  to  was either an independent development, or caused by Etrancoasti influence.

Consonants
The Scaurwél dialect has an identical number of phonemic consonants as Standard Etrandish, and all consonants other than are pronounced the same as in Standard Etrandish: the Scaurwél dialect uses a Guttural R, pronouncing  as a uvular trill  when followed by a vowel, a uvular fricative  or approximant  when not followed by a vowel. When is following a voiceless stop or affricate, it's usually a voiceless fricative trill  or straight-up fricative.

Additionally, Hulran/Etrancoasti is borrowed as  or  (depending on the surrounding vowels), rather than as  like in Standard Etrandish.

Vowels

 * is sometimes not classified as an independent vowel phoneme - some consider it an allophone of and  before non-prevocalic.
 * vary between open-mid and near-open.
 * Out of the vowels classified as long or diphthongized...
 * is consistently pronounced as a long vowel, albeit it is backed and rounded before non-prevocalic  and
 * are consistently pronounced as diphthongs, no matter the context. Additionally, the earlier two never occour before non-prevocalic and , having historically shifted to  in such contexts.
 * are usually diphthongs in most contexts, but are either smoothened into long monopthongs  or made into centralizing diphthongs  before non-prevocalic  and
 * are usually long monopthongs, but are turned into centralizing diphthongs before non-prevocalic  and

Grammar
The Scaurwél dialect preserves the nominative, genitive and dative/accusative cases of Middle Etrandish for nouns and pronouns, as opposed to Standard Etrandish, where they have fallen out of use. Otherwise, the grammar is largely identical to Standard Etrandish.
