Ferritumulic, also known as Hiperborian, is a language of the Pisco-Imerchali family, derived from Latin, spoken in Vallis Draconum.
History
It took heavy influence from the Programming-Katho-Atlantic language Amphorean.
Phonology
Ferritumulic somewhat resembles Italo-Romance languages. However, owing to not being in Italy, but instead in a simulated world derived from, but meaningfully distinct from, it, Ferritumulic does have several unique changes:
- Generally, all geminate plosives are broken, usually into affricates when stressed and fricatives when unstressed. Geminate continuants are still allowed, though.
Consonants
| Labial | Dental | Palatal | Velar | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nasal | m | n | ɲ | |
| Stop | p | t d | k g | |
| Affricate | pɸ bβ | ts dz | cɕ ɟʝ | |
| Fricative | ɸ β | s~z | ɕ | x |
| Lateral | (l) | ʎ | ʟ |
Notes
- Approximants are considered to be nonsyllabic vowels.
- /β/ is devoiced by some speakers.
- Medially, all affricates lose their stop component, but geminate.
- /x/ exists solely as a loaned phoneme.

Orthography
Much like Regnate Latin, Ferritumulic still primarily writes using the Classical Latin script. However, it can be "modernized" fairly easily into the modern Latin script. There are some changes from Classical to Ferritumulic, mainly to accomodate phonological changes:
- Since /ks/ merged with /ts/, /ts/ always is written with <x>, even when it comes from /tj tl/.
- Latinate /h/ is only written when referring to something named back then, such as the placename Hyperborea (modernized as ⟨ʜɪᴘᴇʀʙᴏʀɪᴀ⟩).
Consonants

Vowels
When used as an approximant, /i u/ use the second item in their cells.
