[@servantofaeie1569]

Took me a while to realize this was a real language and not some Northwest Caucasian inspired conlang. Drop the heavy 'Murican English accent (I'm assuming native speakers don't pronounce their Ls and vowels like that, sorry if I'm wrong) and don't refer to ejectives as "glottalized" otherwise it sounds like a poorly done conlang.

[@ashtarbalynestjar8000]

Keep in mind that by now, virtually all speakers of txʷəlšucid are second language speakers trying to reclaim their heritage and keep their language alive, but American English is their main language. I don’t think we know much about the exact quality of /l/ in pre-colonial times, but it seems that /i u/ did actually vary like that between [i u], [e o] and even [ɛ ɔ], with possible offglides. Ejective stops are in fact glottalic consonants, and are often described as “glottalized” in the literature because they pattern phonemically with the glottalized approximants /l’ w’ y’/. Other Salishan languages even have glottalized nasals /m’ n’/ that txʷəlšucid itself lacks.

[@servantofaeie1569]

@@ashtarbalynestjar8000 Interesting that the glottalized consonants became ejectives. However describing them as they historically were is the same as calling the English /ɛi/ and /ai/ "long versions" of /æ/ and /ɪ/.
