Middle Lianiis Min
Lianiis Min has experienced several internal changes throughout its history, the most drastic of these being the great syntax change, which occured during the transition from the classical to medieval eras. The medieval language shares most of its grammar with the modern language, with the biggest difference between the two being in their phonologies. Thus, the medieval language phase contains both a classical sound and modern grammar.
リアニース・ミンは歴史上いくつかの内的変化を経験してきたが、その中で最も劇的なものは、古期から中期へと移行する過程で起こった統語論的変化であった。中期リアニース・ミン(リュアヌウウシュ・ミュン)はその文法の多くを現代語と共有しており、両者における最大の違いはその音韻にある。それ故に中期リアニース・ミンは、古典的な音と現代的な文法というふたつの特徴を兼ね備えている。
