Solaric is an Anglic Language spoken predominantly in North America, centered along the middle and upper Mississippi River valley and the lower Ohio and Missouri River valleys.
Phonology
Solaric has a very complex phonological system. Ejectives and implosives are dervied from fusions of glottal stops and plosives.
Syllable structure is (F)(C)(C)(F|L|N|w|y)V(V)(C)(C)
Every word is mildly stressed and pitch-accented on the ultimate, penultimate, or antepenultimate syllable, whichever is heaviest because of vowel length and coda consonants.
