Mɨluð

Mɨluð ([mɨluð], also spelt Myludh) is a descendent of Bresano. It is split into two main dialects, a northern dialect spoken on the Mugua Peninsula and a southern dialect spoken closer to where the Bresanic homeland is. The southern dialect is the more prestigious and that is the one that will be discussed below, with notes where pronunciation or grammar might differ. It has had influence from Southern Mulesuax and Lesan languages and is a sibling of the Mwise language.

Phonology
The most striking thing of the Mɨluð phonological system is the mismatched fricative pairs and the loss of most syllable final vowels. This loss was blocked in several environments and is more widespread in the southern dialect. It has completely lost the pitch accent of Bresano: words are strongly stressed on the ultimate syllable if it is closed (which is most words) and on the penult if the ultimate syllable is open.

Consonants
 is often pronounced as a plosive (except word-finally) in some dialects, especially in the north, but is always realised as a fricative in the prestige dialect. /l/ is always [r] in the northern dialects.  is usually pronounced as a voiced affricate [ dʐ] in the south; [ ʐ] is a northern pronunciation so it is odd that it made it into the prestige dialect. Other than that there is very little allophony.

Vowels
/ ɨ/ is an uncommon phoneme that occurs to break up the historical clusters of nasal+r, such as in the Bresano word for M ɨlu ð, mrutha. The only other place it occurs is as a reflex of a grave-accented high vowel.

Phonotactics
Syllable structure is CV and CVC for word-final syllables. In the southern dialect, any consonant other than /h/ and /f/ can end a word. Historically these were the only consonants to block the final vowel being dropped, although a posttonic /f/ voices to a / β/. In the northern dialect /g/ (not usually /h/) blocked the vowel-dropping as did any word with a grave-accent. In places where /h/ did not block vowel-dropping it usually caused vowel-lengthening and deleted, and /g/ devoiced to /h/ in posttonic position. This spread through inflected forms but often didn't through historically derived forms.
