Proto-Eastern Hiereti

Proto-Eastern Hiereti was a nominative-accusative, semi-agglutinative language and one of the main descendants of Proto-Hiereti. It was the ancestor of the eastern branch of Hiereti languages, arguably the most radical, exhibiting great morphological and phonetic shifts not witnessed in the other Hiereti proto-languages, Proto-Western Hiereti and Proto-Southern Hiereti. These radical departures can be displayed through a small list of cognates between the various proto-languages (listing Proto-Hiereti first, followed by Proto-EH, Proto-WH and Proto-SH): k'qet, hikag, k'qet, k'xet (king); qaṱal, kaḥal, qaṱal, xaɸal (city); šimit, ayimig, šimit, šimit (hill).
