	Brithenig - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brithenig is an invented language, or constructed language ("conlang").
		Brithenig was not invented to be used in the real world, like Esperanto, nor to provide detail to a work of fiction, like J.R.R. Tolkien's Elvish tongues or Klingon from the Star Trek scenarios.
		Brithenig is respected among the conlang community, being the best-known example of the altlang genre.

		Rather, Brithenig started as a thought experiment to create a Romance language that might have evolved if Latin had displaced Old Celtic as the spoken language of the people in Britain.
		It is the first known conlang to extrapolate a real Terran language through an alternate evolution, and as such can be considered the grandfather of the genre.

	Ill Bethisad - IBWiki
		Ill Bethisad ("the universe" in Brithenig) (1) had as its origins the constructed world and history devised in 1996 by Andrew Smith of New Zealand where his constructed language (called Brithenig) exists.

		Brithenig, which treats Latin as if it were Welsh; it's also part of a very convincing alternate timeline.
		Brithenig and Breathanach were helped considerably by the relatively straightforward conversion from the Latin phonology to the Celtic; by contrast, while a conversion from Arabic to Old English sounds very interesting, it would be quite a challenge.
		Brithenig started with VL, since contemporary P-Celtic does not recognise phonemic vowel length; however, in order to retain the phonemic length of Q-Celtic, I had to use the CL vowel-system for Breathanach.

		It should be up as soon as we have cleared out the bugs on the new page listing names and I have completed updating the lexicon to include words that have been publically announced.
		I think that Brithenig is pronounced in Brithenig as /brITE'nig/, I have no problems with pronouncing Kemr as /'kemEr/ because it is a vowel-insertion, and not originally part of the word.
