Introduction

This article focuses on the Hill dialect of the language, as it is recognized to be the standerdized form of the language.

Writing system

The language uses a Modified Latin script, and a Modified Govoric. In general writing the Latin Version dominates, the Govoric version is used in and neer regions that use it, but every government official document has to be written in both. In the pre-1921 govoric alphabet threre were the letters ⟨й⟩, ⟨ю⟩, ⟨я⟩ and ⟨ъ⟩, but the alphabet was modernized in 1921 replacing ⟨й⟩ with ⟨ь⟩ which effectivly made ⟨ю⟩ and ⟨я⟩ obselite, and ⟨ъ⟩ with ⟨э⟩. There exists an old historic writing system that is currently used only in historic reconstructions and is tought at schools as part of history.

Orthography

The letter ⟨ë⟩ is silent at the end of words unless its after ⟨j⟩ or in some exeptions, however it can be pronounced without changing th emeaning.
the combination of ⟨r⟩ and ⟨ë⟩ resoults in ⟨ë⟩ becoming silent, hence rreporëterë is pronounced as /ˈɾɛ.pɔɻ.tɛɻ/ (alternatifly:/ˈre.pɔɹ.tɛɹ/).
Since the syllable structure of Qazhshavan is (C)V(Nr) (Nr- ⟨n⟩,⟨rë⟩), consonant clusters that exclude ⟨n⟩ or ⟨rë⟩ are very rare and occur in words of foreign origin, example would be the suffix -š'ki, the absence of a vowel is marked with ⟨'⟩, this suffix was borrowed from the neighboring slavic languages, which have more complex syllable structures.
