Zya-Vulturian English is an English pidgin spoken in Zya-Vulturia. It has few lexical and grammatical differences from Standard English, mostly based on obscure references, shortenings and contractions. It can also be classified as an Unwinese language (a type of Jokelang) and a simple relex of English.
Morphology
The suffix -s is randomly added to the end of words, and words are often jumbled or scrambled (I have music dyslexia-> Is haves musix dislexkia) (Like Skwissgaar from Metalocalypse)
Words with an ə (done) or ɪ (bit) in them, like nugget (nəggɪt), the ə is turned to an ø(r), which is pronounced like the "ur" in the word hurt, or like the "ir" in bird, resulting in words like churkin nurget (chicken nugget)
"-d" at end of words sometimes change to "-e", like how the Jimi Hendrix song Voodoo Child was also spelled Voodoo Chile., However, the -e is pronounced as either "aiʲ(C)", where Chile is pronounced like "Chaiyl", or where Chile would be pronounced like "chili".

Writing System
Zya-Vulturian English uses a unique alphabet that utilizes dot diacritics to show phonological morphology, like nasalization and voicing. The dot and dual dot diacritics function similar to the dakuten in the Japanese Kana scripts
Examples of modified characters:
g->k
m->n
l->r
Exceptions:
Due to a lack of creativity and energy during its production, rare letters such as z, q, or
x are denoted by two dots.
c->x
k->q
