Northeast Aeséni language

The Northeast Aeséni language is the language of a subsection of the Aeséni people, the ones living in the western portions of the Northern Mountains of Etrand. It is an agglutinative language with an flexible word-order, although SVO is preferred.

Phonotactics
The tolerated syllable types of Northeast Aeséni are, , , , where can be either a monophthong or a diphthong. The only exception to the ban on syllable-initial consonant-clusters is the consonant cluster, which can also occour word-initially or syllable-initially. Syllable-final consonant clusters are completely forbidden. Other than, all consonant-clusters must be medial and intervocalic, that is, following a vowel and followed by a vowel. With the exception of clusters, all consonant clusters can only consist of two consonants.

The Aeséni language employs a rule which states, that when a  or   syllable is followed by a   or   syllable, the ending consonant of the first syllable migrates to the beginning of the first syllab, converting  into  respectively. Morpheme-final stop consonants also go through lenition to  when migrating to the beginning of the next syllable if the following morpheme begins with a vowel.

Consonants

 * With the exception of, all consonants can be geminated.
 * With the exception of, all of the liquids are phonemes on their own. on the other hand is merely an allophone of morpheme-final  before a morpheme that begins with a vowel.
 * Morpheme-finally, the stops soften to  if the following morpheme begins with a vowel. This only happens if the aforementioned consonant is not geminated.
 * The realization of the liquids vary between fricatives  and approximants, although they tend to lean towards approximant.   respectively can be also pronounced as vocoids , especially when in coda-position and not followed by a vowel.
 * The single, ungeminated varies between flap  and (single-period) trill, albeit the flap is preferred. The geminated  is always realized as a multi-period trill.

Vowels

 * The front rounded and back unrounded vowels are somewhat centralized
 * The short close vowels are actually near-close, while the long close vowels  are truly close.
 * The short mid vowels are truly mid, while the long mid vowels  are close-mid
 * The short open vowels are somewhat centralized, while their long counterparts  are pure front/back.

Vowel harmony
Each word can have only front or back vowels, not both of them. When putting simple words together to form longer words, the latest root word's vowel class defines the whole word - all the previous root words progressively assimilate to it. Conjugations regressively assimilate instead.

For example:

A more complex example:

But if we decided to name a tribe after the coat they wear...

Nouns
There is no gendered distinction between nouns. Being an agglutinative language, when nouns are conjugated in Northeast Aeséni, postfixes are attached to it, which assimilate to the root noun in terms of frontedness. The most common such postfix is the plural marker -uń / -üń, which takes any singular noun, and makes it plural - however, its usage is redundant when the noun is preceded by a word that indicates the quantity of said noun, in which case, the singular is used.

Pronouns
Pronouns are conjugated just like regular nouns.

Adjectives
Regular adjectives are unmarked. Comparative adjectives are concatenated with the postfix -ap / -äp. Superlative adjectives are the same as comparative adjectives, but are preceded by the prefix -rak / -räk, which assimilated to the root adjective.
