'''Monke Hebrew''' (natively: עברית מונקאית ''Ivrit Monke'it'' {{ipa|[ʔivʀit mɔŋkɛʔit]}}) is the dialect of Hebrew spoken in the [[Territory of Monke Island]]. It was first introduced to the island by Former-CMCic explorers that arrived circa mid-January 2025. The phonology and vocabulary of this dialect contains traces of contact with nearby cultures, most notably the [[Kyawcenni people|Kyawcennis]] living in [[Vanstèrel]] and in the rest of the KKC more generally, as noted by the relative abundance of [[Kyawcenni language|Kyawcenni]] loanwords in Monke Hebrew and by the presence of the phoneme /y/ (spelled either as ⟨יֿ⟩ or as ⟨Cֻ⟩ in Monke Hebrew), which was also loaned from Kyawcenni.

Dialects

Monke Hebrew

Monke Hebrew (natively: עברית מונקאית Ivrit Monke'it [ʔivʀit mɔŋkɛʔit]) is the dialect of Hebrew spoken in the Territory of Monke Island. It was first introduced to the island by Former-CMCic explorers that arrived circa mid-January 2025. The phonology and vocabulary of this dialect contains traces of contact with nearby cultures, most notably the Kyawcennis living in Vanstèrel and in the rest of the KKC more generally, as noted by the relative abundance of Kyawcenni loanwords in Monke Hebrew and by the presence of the phoneme /y/ (spelled either as ⟨יֿ⟩ or as ⟨Cֻ⟩ in Monke Hebrew), which was also loaned from Kyawcenni.

Phonology
