A quick note on Orthography and Phonology

Elessic has no double letters, ever. In a case where combining two words (or adding a Suffix) would result in a double letter, the produced word still only has one letter.

Sometimes, when something would result in two adjacent /s/ sounds, a /z/ may be used instead. This is simply for how it sounds, and is rarely Phonemic.

More on this later.

Phonology

Phonology is the basis of any spoken language, and so it seems a fair place to start in introducing someone to Elessic.

Sounds:

æ -  apple Near-Open Front Unrounded
b/p    * Bilabial Stop
ĉ - chapter Voiceless Palato-Alveolar Affricate
d/t * Alveolar Stop
e - bet Open-mid Front Unrounded
v/f * Labiodental Fricative
g/k * Velar Stop
h Voiceless Glottal Fricative
i - beat Close Front Unrounded
ɪ - pit Near-Close Near-Front Unrounded
l Alveolar Lateral Approximant
m Bilabial Nasal
n Alveolar Nasal
a - hot Open Back Unrounded
o - tote Close-mid Back Rounded
r Alveolar Approximant
z/s * Alveolar Sibilant
ŝ - sheet Voiceless Palato-Alveolar Sibilant
ð - lathe/þ - bath * Dental Fricative
u - hoot Close Back Rounded
ʌ - hut Open-Mid Back Unrounded
w Labio-Velar Approximant
y   Palatal Approximant

*indicates a voicing pair

Obviously, this isn't totally IPA, and the examples are subjective based on your own accent. For this purpose, I speak a generalized American dialect, with a degree of south-eastern influence.

Also, I should point out that there are processes like assimilation in the language. "o" before "r" still forms that funny "or" thing like it does in English. These are not accounted for in my orthographical systems, Latin or Elvish.

The glyphs in the left column are how I represent the different sounds of the language in Latin text.

When written in Latin characters, they are all lowercase and italicized, like this.

Additionally, Elessic utilizes what I refer to as Syllabic Consonants, but are functionally more like consonants preceded by a schwa (honestly, I can't distinguish the two). Syllabic Consonants are indicated by capital letters, as in the word arK (pronounced "ah-rək"). Syllabic Consonants are uncommon, and mostly used in pluralizing nouns which can't take the normal pluralization process.
