Consonants marked with † become syllabic and replace a «ㅡ» #/ɯ/. Thus, Gspol («긋포ᇐ») is pronounced #/ks̩.poɭ/.
## Vowels
  Front Back
------------- -------------- --------------
High «ㅣ» #/i/ _i_ «ㅡ» #/ɯ/ _ı_
«ᅱ» #/y/ _ü_ «ᅮ» #/u/ _u_
Mid «ᅦ» #/e/ _e_ «ᅥ» #/ɤ/ _ë_
«ᅬ» #/ø/ _ö_ «ᅩ» #/o/ _o_
Low «ᅢ» #/æ/ _ä_ «ᅡ» #/ɑ/ _a_
A #/j/ between the initial and vowel is indicated the same as in Korean:
«ᅡ» #/ɑ/ → «ᅣ» #/jɑ/, etc.
# Politeness & formality levels
The names ending in «엔» are adjectival verbs, and the ones ending in «헨» are locatives.
Politeness Low Medium High Very high

Informal «ᄭᅩ핸» «티블엔»
_sgohen_ _tibılen_

Middle «파싱엔» «승해엔»

casual polite
Formal «라ퟐ고엔» «쿄헨» «삼ᅙᅩᆼ엔» «라ᄴᅩᇁ 삼ᅙᅩᆼ엔»

Absolutive «새» _sä_ «애» _ä_
Ergative «담» _dam_ «얌» _jam_
Instrumental «ꥢᅱ» _zü_ «휘» _hü_
Locative «헨» _hen_ «옌» _jen_
Ditransitive sentences have secundative marking, meaning that the recipient (the primary/"indirect" object) is marked using the absolutive, and the theme (the secondary/"direct" object) with the instrumental.

title: Constructed languages

...
[Yeah][wiki]. So far I only have one language even approaching usability:
* __[Lántas]__ #/laːntas/, which wins the prizes for the longest I've stuck with one language, and the most detailed I've ever got with a single language. It's got _lots_ of noun inflection and a significant amount on verbs too. I was a bit obsessed with Finnish when I first started it, which might be evident. (Not just in the amount of inflection, but also in things like the unmotivated inclusion of clusters like #/ps/ and #/ks/.)
The others have barely anything to them so far.
* __[Tengan]__, or #(tté ŋa) #/tʼɛ˥ ŋɑ˩/, an isolating-ish language with evidentiality and clicks and a featural script (i.e. like Hangul, but not as good).
* __[Zalajmkwély]__ #/zɑlɑɪmkweˈliː/, something initiating from a conlang-in-an-hour challenge thing but then I got kinda attached to it.

# The North Wind and the Sun
_The North Wind and the Sun were disputing which was the stronger, when a traveller came along wrapped in a warm cloak. They agreed that the one who first succeeded in making the traveller take his cloak off should be considered stronger than the other. Then the North Wind blew as hard as he could, but the more he blew the more closely did the traveller fold his cloak around him; and at last the North Wind gave up the attempt. Then the Sun shined out warmly, and immediately the traveller took off his cloak. And so the North Wind was obliged to confess that the Sun was the stronger of the two._

title: Lántas—Personal Names

backname: Lántas
backlink: ../laantas
...
Names in Lántas can be very long in their full form, containing multiple
goneonymics[^goneo] (names referring to their parents, biological or
otherwise); at least one given name, usually two; several adjectival epithets;
and a toponym (referring to the town where they grew up), in that order. An
example of a full name is «Mafitsuš Kampatsuš Mammu Šamni Bahút Tamnissa-Amat
Gappatkirḿlin» meaning, in order, "Child of Mafi (mother), Child of Kampa
(father), Mammu Šamni, Strong, Loyal to their Family, from Gappatkir". In most
situations they would be referred to as either Mammu or Šamni depending on
their preference. Many names are even longer than this; as a culture, Lántas
speakers take significant pride in giving their children particularly long
names. The given names themselves have no inherent meaning or gender bias, but
names are frequently reused within a family.
[^goneo]: Full disclosure: I made this word up.

title: Lántas—Nouns
backname: Lántas
backlink: ../laantas
...
Nouns are the words which name and refer to specific entities. Lántas is unusual in that words which are often considered to form a separate "adjective" class, or, occasionally, a subset of verbs, are also (the genitive case of) nouns.
# Number
The basic form of a noun is its singular, in all cases. The plural is formed by adding:
* «-al» to a word ending in «l» or «ł»,
* «-l» to a word ending in a vowel, or
* «-ł» to a word ending in a consonant, syllabic or not, other than «l».
This plural form can also be applied to names of people. In this case it forms what is called an _associative plural_, and refers to a person plus a group associated with them, usually their family or friend group.

# Core cases {#corecases}
Declension for the core cases of «nú» 'man' and «lun» 'road' are shown below. Some of the endings are slightly different in the case of a stem ending in a consonant or vowel, and if the ending starts with multiple consonants the final one of the stem is dropped.
<figure>
|   | Singular | Plural |
|----------------------:|:---------|:-----------|
| Nominative #!(NOM)! | «nú» | «nú·l» |
| Genitive #!(GEN)! | «nú·t» | «nú·t·ł» |
| Comitative #!(COM)! | «nú·kas» | «nú·kas·ł» |
| Caritive #!(CAR)! | «nú·ssa» | «nú·ssa·l» |
| Instrumental #!(INS)! | «nú·la» | «nú·la·l» |
| Essive #!(ESS)! | «nú·gu» | «nú·gu·l» |

</figure>
The _nominative_ is the subject of sentences, and the unmarked form. The _genitive_ is used for the object of sentences, the possessive, and for modifying other nouns (see [below](#adjectivals)).
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
Jánim línait bairusi.
Jáni-m línai-t bairu-si
John-DEF mouse-GEN see-RPST

```
```gloss

Jáni-ma-t línai
John-DEF-GEN mouse
John's mouse
```
```gloss
ausut línai
ausu-t línai
large-GEN mouse
a large mouse
```
</figure>
For _inalienable_ possession (body parts, family members, etc), the [definite](#definiteness) is usually used instead of an explicit genitive construction.
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
Nattumatł bairusina.
nattu-ma-t-ł bairu-si-na
parent-DEF-GEN-PL see-PST-1SG
I saw my [the] parents.
```
</figure>
The _comitative_ case is used for 'and' between two nouns, as well as 'with' in the sense of 'accompanied by'. It is used on all but the _last_ noun being conjoined, with the last one taking the semantic case for the whole sequence. The opposite case, the _caritive_, means 'without', and is also used for _negative_ possessive statements. (See the adessive, described below, for affirmative statements.)
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
suksł ká
suksł ká

```
```gloss
Kalńkas þasit bairusina.

```
```gloss

```gloss

kat fadau-kas ká rut ǧima-m-li-s šikkú-si
my friend-COM I his house-DEF-IN-LAT go-RPST
I went with my friend to his house.
```
</figure>
The most common use of the _instrumental_ case is the [theme] of ditransitive sentences (while the recipient is in the genitive). It is also used for 'with' as in 'using', in distributive phrases such as «kallila» 'in threes, in sets of three, three each', for quantity expressions such as units, and quantifiers like 'every'.

</figure>
The _essive_ case indicates a state, while the _translative_ and _exessive_ cases indicate a change of state. The translative marks the new state, and the exessive the old. The essive and exessive are most commonly used with comparatives (see [below](#adjectivals)).
__TODO: examples__
# Locational cases
The locational cases are formed by pairs of suffixes, one for the type of
motion and one for the orientation or part of the target object.[^tsez]
Unlike for the core cases, the endings are the same regardless of whether the
stem ends in a consonant or vowel, so they are only listed for «nú».
These cases have formulaic names, e.g., 'adessive' (at), 'absuperlative' (from above), and so on.
[^tsez]: You might think that this sounds too mathematical or artificial to occur in a natural language, but in fact some Caucasian languages, such as [Tsez] and [Archi], do exactly this.

* Subessive is used for:
* 'in the opinion of': «Kaku manifnut ai.» That's pleasant to me/I like that.
- Superessive is used for:
- 'about': «Suba jaisi fína.» I dreamt about you.
<!-- -->
* \#!(AD--LAT)! «Dufnamsas júlisina.» I stuck it onto the wall.
* \#!(AD--ESS)! «Ǧimamsa aihapa?» Are you at home?

* \#!(APUD--PRL)! «Lunmiri šikkúsina.» I followed (alongside) the river.
The orientation suffixes give rise to the following words:
<div class=twocol>
- «fansað»: surface
- «fanlið»: interior
- «fanduð»: front
- «fangið»: back
- «fannuað»: company
- «fambað»: top
- «fankuð»: bottom
- «fammið»: vicinity
</div>
# Definiteness
The definite suffix for nouns (DEF) is «-m», and is used more frequently than 'the' in English. For example, in the second sentence below Sam has one dog, and in the third he is implied to have several. The names of people and places are also definite.
After a consonant or «-ń», the definite suffix is «-ḿ»; the sequence «ńḿ» is pronounced as a single syllable, as #/nm̩/. After «-m» or «-ḿ», the suffix is «-am». The definite suffix occurs _between_ the stem and the case ending. Between the «-m» form and a case suffix starting with a consonant cluster, or the genitive singular «-t», an extra epenthetic «-a» is added.

```gloss
guwanḿt samńḿ
guwan-ḿ-t samń-ḿ
sun-DEF-GEN colour-DEF

```
```gloss

</figure>
The definite suffix is used:
* When the referent is old information already mentioned.
«Pas nú bairusina. Nai rala núm manifnut gašnat ippausi.» I saw two people. One of them was wearing a nice shirt.
* For people, places, countries, and other proper names.
«Danielḿ Włjáhámamli nuabia.» Daniel lives in Austria.
* In time phrases with «gimi».
«Gimimli lána.» I'm doing it now.
However, «naigimi» 'sometime' is indefinite.
«Naigimili lámána.» I'll do it at some point.
* In statements of general fact.
«Númsal pasla aðal ai.» Humans have two eyes.
* __TODO: ?__
The definite suffix is _not_ used (in contrast to English):
* In superlatives.
«Milnutlit aifa.» It's the smallest.
* __TODO: ?__
# Adjectivals
Most words considered as adjectives in other languages are in fact grammatically nouns in Lántas; words such as «sabu» can be translated as 'the colour black'. When one noun modifies another attributively, the [genitive case](#corecases) suffix «-(a)t» is used. Additional adjectives after the first additionally take a special conjunctive suffix «-as», similar to the comitative case. Adjectives, like other noun modifiers, precede the head noun in most cases. However, they can follow it if they indicate a property considered inherent to the objects in question.
Genitive forms can be used as adverbs with the suffix «-tta»; the conjunctive variant is «-ttás».
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
sabut þasi
sabu-t þasi
black-GEN dog
a black dog
```
```gloss
líbisat þasi
líbis-at þasi
happy-GEN dog
a happy dog
```
```gloss
sabut líbistas þasi
sabu-t líbis-t-as þasi
black-GEN happy-GEN-CONJ dog
a happy black dog
```
```gloss
Línaim sihatta irhi.
línai-m siha-tta irhi
mouse-GEN small-ADV squeak
The mouse is squeaking quietly.
```
</figure>
From adjectivals, several further derivations can be made: the _equative_, which expresses that two objects have an equal measure of some property; the _comparative_, which says that one object has more of a property than another object; and the _superlative_, which claims that an object has the most of a property. Derivation from «gaisi» 'white':
<figure>
------------------- --------------
Equative (EQU) «gaisi·t·sat»
Comparative (CMP) «gaisi·t·pat»
Superlative (SUPL) «gaisi·t·lit»
------------------- --------------
</figure>
The noun being compared with is in the [essive case](#corecases) for the equative, and the exessive for the comparative.

# Vowels
<figure>
<object data=pure-vowels.svg></object>
<object data=diphthongs1.svg></object>
<object data=diphthongs2.svg></object>
</figure>
There are three basic vowels #/i a u/, diphthongs #/ai au iə uə/, and syllabic consonants #/m̩ n̩ r̩ l̩/. Neither of these last two sets have a length distinction, and have the same duration as a long vowel. Note that #/u uː/ are substantially more central than #/i iː/, and the initial place of #/uə/ is further back than pure #/uː/.
Long vowels, and syllabic consonants other than «l», are spelt with a acute accent: «í á ú ḿ ń ŕ». A syllabic «l», because of its height, replaces the acute with a stroke: «ł». The diphthongs are spelt «ai au ia ua».
## Allophony
<figure>
<object data=vowel-allophones1.svg></object>
<object data=vowel-allophones2.svg></object>
<object data=vowel-allophones-diph.svg></object>
</figure>
* After a velar consonant, including #/ɫ w/, the vowels #/a aː ai i iː iə u uː uə/ are backed and lowered to the forms labelled #[ɑ ɑː ɑe ɛ eː eə ɔ oː ɔə], respectively, in the figures above.
* After #/j/, #/i iː iə/ become #[e eː eə].
* After #/ʧ ʤ ʃ j/, #/u uː/ is fronted to #[y ʉː].
* Before a syllabic consonant, a small schwa may be inserted if necessary to make pronunciation easier. This is most common between #/ln̩ nl̩/ and two copies of a single sound. For example, «kalń» #/kaln̩/ #[kɐlᵊn] 'cat'.
* \#/r̩ l̩/ are pronounced as #[ɻː ɫ̩ː].
* Syllabic #/n̩/ assimilates to #[ŋ̍] before a velar consonant; no other assimilation for syllabic nasals occurs, though.
* Unstressed short vowels are somewhat reduced, #/a/ more than the others.
# Consonants
Where unspecified, consonants are spelt the same way as in IPA.
| | Labial | Dental | Postalveolar | Velar |
|-------------|----------|-----------------|--------------|----------|
| Plosive | #/p b/ | #/t d/ | #/ʧ ʤ/ «č ǧ» | #/k g/ |
| Fricative | #/f/ | #/θ s/ «þ/ð, s» | #/ʃ/ «š» | #/x/ «h» |
| Nasal | #/m/ | #/n/ | | |
| Flap | #/ɾ/ «r» | | | |
| Approximant | #/w/ | #/l/ | #/j/ | |
The phonemes #/p t ʧ k s ʃ m n ɾ l x/ can be geminated. For the purposes of syllable structure, geminated consonants are counted the same as two separate ones. Geminate versions of most consonants are spelt by doubling the letter: «pp», «tt», «kk», etc. The phoneme #/θ/ is spelt «þ» word-initially (and at the beginning of components of compound words), and «ð» elsewhere.[^ð]
[^ð]: An Icelandic person on the Internet once told me off for having intramorphemic 'þ's in a language and it has stuck with me since.
## Allophony
* Before #/i iː iə/, #/ɾ/ becomes #[ʑ̞], a laminal fricative with only a small amount of actual friction, almost #[ɹ̻].
* A nasal followed by a plosive assimilates to the same place of articulation (but for compound words this is not reflected in the spelling), for example «rabanpa» #[ravampa] 'what book?'.
* The sequences #/ʧs ʃs sʃ/ are pronounced as #[tʃː ʃː ʃː].
* Nasals before #/s x/ decay to a nasalisation of the previous vowel, or are dropped entirely if that vowel is a syllabic consonant.
* Voiced plosives #/b d ʤ ɡ/ become fricatives #[v ð ʒ ɣ] between proper vowels. The allophone #[v] is pronounced #[β] by some speakers.
* The velar fricative #/x/ becomes #[h] before #/r̩/, and is palatalised to #[ç] before #/i iː iə/.
* Long #/ʧː/ is pronounced as #[ṯːʃ]. Long #/ɾ l/ become #[ʐː ɫː].
* Non-final #/l/ is velarized #[ɫ] after a back vowel (including the allophones #[ɑ ɑː]). After other vowels, it is palatalised.
* Non-syllabic #/l/ is pronounced as #[ɬʲ] at the end of words, even after a back vowel. After #/t/ it is #[ɬ]. The phoneme #/ɾ/ is also devoiced #[ɾ̥] word-finally. The sequence #/lθ/ is realised as #[ɬʲː].
* In many dialects, the long obstruents #/pː tː ʧː kː sː ʃː/ are pronounced as ejectives #[pʼ tʼ ʧ ʼ kʼ sʼ ʃʼ], and the long sonorants #/mː nː lː/ as #[bᵐ dⁿ ɮː].
# Syllable structure
<div>
The allowed shape of a syllable is <var>CV</var>(<var>C</var>) where <var>V</var> is any vowel and <var>C</var> a consonant, such that all clusters take one of the following forms:
* <var>KC</var>, where
<var>K</var> can be any of
#/m n l r θ s ʃ t/ _(coda consonants)_;
* <var>FN</var>,
where <var>F</var> can be
#/f θ s ʃ x/ _(fricatives)_ and
<var>N</var> can be
#/m n/ _(nasals)_;
* <var>P</var>#/s/, where
<var>P</var> can be #/p t ʧ k/ _(voiceless plosives)_;
* \#/pj bj lj rj/; and
* geminate consonants.
Aside from these, a word can also start with a vowel. At the end of a word, the consonants from <var>K</var> are allowed. A syllabic consonant cannot be next to the non-syllabic form of the same consonant---for example, the sequences #/ll̩/ and #/l̩l/ are not possible. Two distinct syllabic consonants can be next to each other, however---even without a non-syllabic consonant in between---and are pronounced as two separate syllables as normal.
Sometimes an inflectional ending can cause an invalid sequence of syllabic and non-syllabic consonant. In this case, the sequence is replaced with «a» plus a long form of the consonant: «suaþł» 'speaker'---«suaþalla» 'from a speaker'.
Occasionally, loanwords break the consonant clustering rules, such as «mikrugram».
</div>
# Stress
Words are stressed on the first long vowel; if there are no long vowels, _or_ the only one is in the final syllable of multiple, then the stress is on the first syllable. For the purposes of deciding stress placement, neither diphthongs nor syllabic consonants are counted as long.
# Epenthesis
Many inflectional endings begin with a consonant. In some cases, this will cause an illegal consonant cluster according to the above rules. Therefore, an epenthetic vowel will sometimes need to be inserted. This vowel depends on the affix being added, and so is given at the same time as the inflections themselves. Note that if multiple inflections are added, only the extra vowels necessary to make the word legal (going left to right) are inserted: as further affixes are stacked, these will appear to surface and vanish again. See, for instance, the examples given for [adjectival genitives](nouns.html#adjectivals).

backname: Lántas
backlink: ../laantas
...
Pronouns are inflected for the same cases as other nouns, though their forms are somewhat irregular.
# Personal pronouns
The first person plural «til» is only used inclusively of the listener. For an exclusive meaning, one must say «rukas ká» ('they and I') or similar. (The name «tiallántas» is fossilised, however, and does not change to «rukaskatlántas» when talking to a non-speaker.)
The LOC column is the word stems which the [locational cases](#locational_cases) are attached to. Their suffixes are regular.
<figure>
| | 1SG | 1PL | 2SG | 2PL | 3SG | 3PL |
|----:|---------|----------|---------|----------|---------|----------|
| NOM | «ká» | «til» | «sur» | «sual» | «rú» | «rúl» |
| GEN | «kat» | «tial» | «sut» | «suatł» | «rut» | «rutł» |
| COM | «kakas» | «tiksł» | «sukas» | «suksł» | «rukas» | «ruksł» |
| CAR | «kassa» | «tissal» | «sussa» | «sussal» | «russa» | «russal» |
| INS | «kala» | «tilla» | «sulla» | «sualla» | «rulla» | «rualla» |
| ESS | «kagu» | «tigul» | «sugu» | «sugul» | «rugu» | «rugul» |
| TRA | «kasti» | «tistil» | «susti» | «sustul» | «rusti» | «rustil» |
| EXE | «kaču» | «tičul» | «sučču» | «suččul» | «ruču» | «ručul» |
| LOC | «ka» | «til» | «su» | «sual» | «ru» | «rual» |
</figure>
# Demonstratives
There is a three way distance distinction for demonstratives: a new referent near the speaker/listener, a new referent distant from both, and old information. These will be glossed as 'this', 'yon', and 'that', respectively.
The near demonstrative is «lua», whose declension is given below. For distant referents it is «þua» and for old information «mua»; they decline in the same way as «lua».
The adjectival (ADJ) forms of these words are used as determiners before other nouns. Note that unlike most nouns, it is distinct from the genitive: compare «muð kalńł» 'those cats' and «mut kalńł» 'that person's cats'. It also lacks stress, unlike the other forms.
<figure>
| | Singular | Plural |
|----:|----------|-----------|
| NOM | «lua» | «lul» |
| GEN | «lut» | «lutł» |
| COM | «lukas» | «luksł» |
| CAR | «lussa» | «lussal» |
| INS | «lulla» | «lulllal» |
| ESS | «lugu» | «lugul» |
| TRA | «lusti» | «lustil» |
| EXE | «luču» | «lučul» |
| LOC | «lu» | «lul» |
| ADJ | «luð» | «luð» |
</figure>
# Indefinites
The words 'someone', 'something', 'anyone', 'anything' are served by (a stressed form of) the numeral «nai» 'one'. 'Everyone' or 'everything' is «nakasnai», and inflects the same way as «nai» itself. The words «nala» and «nakasnala» mean 'any' and 'every', respectively.
# Interrogatives
Interrogatives (question words) are formed with the enclitic «-pa», attached to any noun phrase. As well as «naipa» 'what?, who?', it can be added to any other word to mean 'which?'.
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
Naipa musat ai?
Nai=pa mu-sa-t ai
one=what that-AD-ESS be
Who's there?
```
```gloss
Hámamlinaspa sidasiha?
háma-m-li-nas=pa sida-si-ha
country-DEF-IN-ABL=what come-RPST-2SG
Which country do you come from?
```
</figure>
Being a clitic, «-pa» is added to the end of the noun, after all other (non-clitic) endings such as case inflections, as shown in the above examples.

<style>
object.script { vertical-align: middle; }
</style>
Lántas is natively written with an [abugida], meaning that consonants are full letters, while vowels (including syllabic consonants) are written as modifiers to the previous consonant.
[abugida]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abugida
As an example of how it looks, here is the first sentence of [The North Wind and the Sun][nwas]:
[nwas]: examples.html#the-north-wind-and-the-sun
<figure>
<object class=script data=northwind2.svg></object>
</figure>
# Independent vowels
These are used when a word begins with a vowel (or syllabic consonant).
<figure>
<object class=script data=ivowels.svg></object>
</figure>
# Vowel diacritics
These are attached to a consonant symbol to indicate the following vowel.
<figure>
<object class=script data=dvowels.svg></object>
</figure>
# Base consonants
These letters are the base shapes for single consonants. The glyphs below do not actually mean anything (except the one for «j»); the final stem is given a descender for an #/a/, and an underline indicates no vowel. (See [above](#vowel-diacritics).)
<figure>
<object class=script data=consonants.svg></object>
</figure>
Consonant clusters are written with a ligature called a _conjunct_ derived from the two base letters.
# Conjunct consonants
While many conjuncts are not exactly the two consonants mashed together, the form is usually predictable.
## Conjuncts with «t»
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-t.svg></object>
</figure>
## Conjuncts with «ð»
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-th.svg></object>
</figure>
## Conjuncts with «s»/«š»
The conjuncts starting with «š», other than «šp», are the same as with «s» except with the overline added. (In «šš» the overlines merge, as shown below.)
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-s.svg></object>
</figure>
## Conjuncts with «l»
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-l.svg></object>
</figure>
## Conjuncts with «m»
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-m.svg></object>
</figure>
## Conjuncts with «n»
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-n.svg></object>
</figure>
## Conjuncts with «r»
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-r.svg></object>
</figure>
## Others
<figure>
<object class=script data=conjuncts-o.svg></object>
</figure>
# Punctuation
The end of phrase <object class=script data=eop.svg></object> and end of sentence <object class=script data=eos.svg></object> marks, transcribed as commas and full stops/question marks/exclamation marks[^fs], have the same amount space either side of them, more for the latter. When they are on a line break, they stay with the previous word, like in the example at the top of this page (and like in most scripts).
[^fs]: Even though there's no distinction in the native script, questions look weird in the transcription with no "?" after them.
# Numbers
Numbers are written in base 10 using modified letters. Numbers in running text are surrounded by double vertical bars, and digits are grouped into fours.

__TODO: intro__
The infinitive is unmarked (but always ends in a vowel), and is the citation form for verbs as well as being used in several constructions.
# Tense
There is a distinction between two different past tenses, _recent_ and _distant_ past. The recent past is most commonly used, while the distant past is used to denote an action happening further in the past than to another action already expressed using the recent.
Stories are narrated in the present tense.
<figure>
-------------------- --------
Distant past (DPST) «--sai»
Recent past (RPST) «--si»
Present (PRS) «--»
Future (FUT) «--má»
-------------------- --------
</figure>
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
Þasim kalńḿt jaðí.
þasi-m kalń-ḿ-t jaðí
dog-DEF cat-DEF-GEN love;PRS
The dog loves the cat.
```
```gloss

```
```gloss

```
```gloss

þasim kalńḿt jaðí-má
the:dog the:cat love-FUT
The dog will love the cat.
```
</figure>
# Person
These suffixes are used instead of pronouns, but not used with nouns, in the subject and object positions. The subject suffix comes before the object. For the plural, the vowel is lengthened and an «--š» is added (e.g. «na» → «náš»).
Just like with the [pronouns](#pronouns), the first person plurals «--náš» and «--dúš» can only be used with an inclusive meaning. The exclusive sense is expressed by using conjunctions of pronouns instead of suffixes.
<figure>

-------------- ------------ ------------ -----------
Subject (SBJ) «--na» «--ha» «--fa»

```
```gloss
Þasim bairudúš.
þasi-m bairu-dúš
dog-DEF see-1PL;OBJ

```
</figure>
# Voice
There is a four way voice distinction. The voice markers are placed between the tense and person markers.
- The _active_ voice is the default form of the verb and does not modify the roles of the arguments.
- The _passive_ voice promotes the direct object of the verb to subject position, leaving the former subject role unspecified. There is no way to specify the agent (i.e., no equivalent to _by_); to merely emphasise the object but keep the subject specified, the object can be moved to the beginning of the clause.
- The _reflexive_ voice indicates that the subject(s) act on themselves.
- The _reciprocal_ voice indicates that the subjects act on each other.
<figure>
----------------- ----------
Active (ACT) «--»
Passive (PSV) «--lú»
Reflexive (RFL) «--sidu»
Reciprocal (RCP) «--lði»

# Negative
__TODO__
«--tul»
# Nominal forms
A verb stem can also be used as a noun: for example, «šikkú» both means 'to go' and 'an act of going'. The definite plural is also used to mean the act in a general sense. The definite form is also used for the verb of content clauses, for example indirect quotations.
Auxiliary verbs such as modals use this construction as well.
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
hipsamł
hipsa-m-ł
solve_problem-DEF-PL
logic (the general act of problem solving)
```
```gloss
Fíra fuham suasifa.
fíra fuha-m sua-si-fa
air blow-DEF say-RPST-3SG
He said it was windy.
```
```gloss
Šikkúnamat ušminatul.
šikkú-na-m-at ušmi-na-tul
go-1SG-DEF-GEN want-1SG-NEG
I don't want to go.
```
</figure>
# Modifier forms
__TODO__ used to form relative clauses, come before noun & other modifiers
- «--ja»: other
- «núm bairuja þasim»: the dog the man sees
- «núm bairusija þasim»: the dog the man saw
- nominalised with extra «-ð» at the end
# Pro-verbs
Pro-verbs are placeholders standing in for verb phrases; they are the verb equivalent of pronouns.
The word for 'to do this' is «mai». It bears an obvious resemblance to the [pronoun] «mua». There are also the rarer «lai» and «þai», only used when contrasting between two options.
- «Naranášḿ iš lut saunusam gibanášḿ fulla. _Laim iš þaim_ ušmiha?»
We can walk or take the bus. _Which_ do you want to do?
- «_Þaim_ ušmina.»
I want to do _that_ (i.e., take the bus).
There is also a negative pro-verb «tulla», 'to not do this/that'.
[pronoun]: pronouns.html
# Polar questions
__TODO__
Polar (yes/no) questions add a «--ǧi» clitic on the word or phrase being questioned. The word being questioned receives the primary stress. If there is no particular focus for the question, it is attached to the final word of the sentence.
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
Inlantimsasǧi šikkúmáha?
Inlanti-m-sa-s-ǧi šikkú-má-ha
England-DEF-AD-LAT-QU go-FUT-2SG
Are you going to England (vs going somewhere else)?
```
```gloss
Surǧi Inlantimsas šikkúmá?
sur-ǧi Inlantimsas šikkúmá
2SG-QU to:England will:go
Is it you (vs someone else) who is going to England?
```
```gloss
Inlantimsas šikkúmáhaǧi?
Inlantimsas šikkúmáha-ǧi
to:England you:will:go-QU
Are you going to England (vs coming from it)?
```
</figure>
To answer a yes/no question, the verbs «mai» or «tulla», respectively, are conjugated for person (but not tense, etc). Their literal meaning are as pro-verbs, 'to (not) do this'.
- «Inlantimsasǧi šikkúmáha?---Maina/Tullana.»
Are you going to England?---Yes, I am/No, I'm not.

First person (singular) is #/n̪es/. Second person (any number) is #/qɑʀ/. Back references (below) are used instead of third person pronouns.
# Back references
CHANGE THESE
The form of adjacent back references alternate between vowel and consonant forms to form a short word. A single one on its own attaches to a dummy #/h/ in its vowel form.
Subscripts in glosses indicate what a given occurrence of a back reference points to.

title: Conlang syntax test cases
...
The contents of this page are mirrored from [here], as the domain has changed
hands and the page no longer exists.
[here]: http://fiziwig.com/conlang/syntax_tests.html
# The Purpose of this List
> There are several collections of specimen sentences to translate into
> a conlang, including 1200 sentences on this web site. As a general rule the
> sources for these sentences have been elementary-level educational
> publications meant to provide a student with rote practise exercises. This
> means that the same sentence structure will appear many times with only
> slight variations in the nouns and verbs used. For example, these sentences
> from 1200 Graded Sentences for Analysis:
>
> * A cheerful fire is blazing on the hearth.
> * Seven little sisters were walking in a row.
> * Some beautiful roses are blooming in our garden.
> * The boys are playing in the lot.
> * The little girl was playing with her kitten.
>
> Granted, these sentences may use different conjugations of a verb, and
> different declensions of the various nouns and pronouns, but aside from those
> trivial difference, these sentences are essentially identical with respect to
> the syntactical features they are meant to test or demonstrate. That kind of
> repetition is fine for rote training, but it is not really necessary for
> testing a conlang. To serve that purpose there needs to be only one sentence
> of the type: "Roses are red."
>
> What is necessary is a variety of unique sentences each of which tests some
> different aspect of the conlang. This collection was constructed by putting
> together several more repetative lists and culling out that larger
> collection, those sentences which duplicate syntactic principles already
> present earlier in the list.
>
> Below are 218 sentences selected from a collection of 1200 sentences, with
> all those that are essentially duplicates removed.
>
> Some sentences have been slightly modified to remove references to a specific
> culture or time, to make the sentence more "universal" for conlangs of any
> era or culture. For example "We went to London..." has been changed to "We
> went to the village...". In other sentences allowances will have to made for
> conlangs from cultures that don't have Mondays, windows, or snow. The
> important thing is whether the conlang being tested can handle the meaning of
> sentences of that general structure.

------- ---------- ----------- ----------
Close «i» #/i/ «y» #/ʉ/ «u» #/u/
Mid «e» #/ɛ/ «o» #/ɔ/
Open «a» #/ɑ/
------- ---------- ----------- ----------
There are three tones, indicated by diacritics:
- High, with an acute accent «á» #/ɑ˥/
- Low, with no accent «a» #/ɑ˩/
- Falling, with a grave accent «à» #/ɑ˥˨/
Vowels can be nasalised, which is indicated by an «n» following the vowel (and
offglide if there is one).
## Consonants

----------------- ----------- --------------- --------------- -----------
* Between two vowels or glides, non-aspirated pulmonic consonants become voiced:
#/ɬ ꞎ/ become #[l ɭ].
* Before #/i j/, #/x/ becomes #[ç]; before #/ɔ u w/ it becomes #[ɸ].
* The phoneme #/χ/ changes based on the following vowel or glide:
+ to #[ç] before #/i/ or #/j/, or
+ to #[ɸ] before #/o/, #/u/, or #/w/.
The rest of the time it is _uvular_, not velar.
* Syllable-final #/p t k/ are unreleased.
- \#/ᵏǀj/ and #/ᵏǃj/ are pronounced #[ᵏǂ], and #/ɴǀj ɴ!j/ as #[ɴǂ].[^nc]
[^nc]: This is not true of #/ǁ/ because I can't hear any difference whatsoever between #[ǁ] and #[ǂˡ]. This might be why the latter doesn't have a symbol of its own.
# Writing system
Tengan has a featural writing system similar to Hangul, called #|twén phỳk ná|, or 'syllable writing'. Each syllable is written in a block indicating different features of each part of the syllable.
## Initials
Initials are classed first into six basic shaped based on place of articulation. Laterals are counted as distinct places.
<figure class=script>
------- ------- -------
#|pa| #|da| #|la|
#|ta| #|ka| #|ła|
------- ------- -------
</figure>
Other consonants are built by systematically adding modifiers above these bases. For example, for #|ta|:
<figure class=script>
-------- -------- --------- ---------
#|tha| #|tta| #|txa| #|tsa|
#|sa| #|sha| #|tsha| #|ttsa|
#|na| #|nxa|
-------- -------- --------- ---------
</figure>
## Glides
Glides look the same before and after a vowel, and also when it is the initial consonant.
<figure class=script>
-------- -------- -------- -------- ------- --------
#|tja| #|twa| #|taj| #|taw| #|ja| #|wa|
-------- -------- -------- -------- ------- --------
</figure>
## Vowels
The vowel symbols have no further internal structure.
<figure class=script>
------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
#|ta| #|ti| #|te| #|tu| #|to| #|ty|
------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
</figure>
## Tones and nasalisation
The nasalisation is written below the offglide, and the tone after that.
<figure class=script>
-------- -------- --------
#|ta| #|tá| #|tà|
#|tan| #|tán| #|tàn|
-------- -------- --------
</figure>
## Coda consonants
Coda consonants are the same as their initial counterparts, but are usually written slightly narrower.
<figure class=script>
------- -------- -------- --------
#|ta| #|tat| #|tak| #|tap|
------- -------- -------- --------
</figure>
# Pronouns
There is an distinction between 'we' inclusive and exclusive of the listener(s).
  Singular Plural
-- ---------- -----------------
1 #|fa| #|ŋa|, #|khwi|
2 #|thò| #|dyt|
3 #|zéj| #|ņaw|
4 #|han| #|kkù|
\#|ŋa| is the inclusive pronoun and #|khwi| the exclusive.
Third and fourth person pronouns are used as determiners ('this' and 'that'); fourth for new information in the conversation, and third for old.
Honorific forms of non-first person pronouns add #|txiw| afterward. Humble first person pronouns add #|lok|. (#|ŋa| doesn't allow either.)
# Verbs
## Aspect
Tense in Tengan is not expressed explicitly. The adverb #|dxop| 'earlier' is frequently used to emphasise an action took place in the past, but is not mandatory, and more specific time phrases are also common. The perfective aspect is marked using #|zú| after the modality marker.
## Modality
The main verb of each clause requires a modality marker of some sort after it.
### Evidentials
The indicative mood is split into six evidentiality levels, indicating why and how strongly the speaker believes the information to be true:
* first-hand direct sensory information with #|sa|;
* inferred with #|ddzé|;
* assumed with #|kwé| (weaker than #|ddzé|);
* reported (second-hand) with #|phàj|;
* reported _dubious_ information with #|mot|;
* \#|tow| for hypotheticals.
When telling a story from the third person, #|phàj| is used.
### Interrogative
Yes-no questions are marked with #|maj|. Content questions, e.g., with #|fon| 'what', do not also use #|maj|.
### Imperative
The imperative, with #|łó|, is used both for commands and plural propositions. The subject is not dropped in imperatives.
<figure class=glosses>
```tgloss
Pzò łó ŋa!
pzò łó ŋa
go IMP 1PL
Let's go!
```
```tgloss
Pzò łó thò!
pzò łó thò
go IMP 2SG
Go!
```
</figure>
## Auxiliary verbs
* \#|dxùn| fail
* \#|hék| not
* \#|jat| repeatedly
* \#|khéw| begin
* \#|kzun| may
* \#|mxá| try
* \#|nỳ| must
* \#|pojn| decide
* \#|tsap| finish
* \#|ttjò| stop, abandon
* \#|zwèp| want
* \#|kkjaw| can
<figure class=glosses>
```tgloss

```
```tgloss
Fa jat mxá tlo sa fa zéj.
fa jat mxá tlo sa zéj
1SG repeatedly try call first_hand 3SG
I keep trying to call him.
```
</figure>
# Attitude particles
Attitude particles can come before any word to indicate the speaker's feelings
toward that referent or action. #|sén| is commonly attached to
compliments, and #|kkow| or #|dùp| to excuses.
* \#|dùp| regret
* \#|kkow| disappointment
* \#|sén| approval
* \#|dxák| disgust (vulgar)
* \#|ppwa| surprise
<figure class=glosses>
```tgloss
Thò hej sén lon phján!
thò hej sén lon phján
2SG do approval well piano
Wow, you play the piano well!
```
```tgloss
Thò dxák hej dxák fon?!
thò dxák hej dxák fon
2SG disgust do disgust what
What the __ did you __ing do?!
```
</figure>
# Causatives
The verb #|phyn| is used to make a causative sentence, for example:
<figure class=glosses>
```tgloss
Zéj phyn sa zú fa ma sa zín!
zéj phyn sa zú fa ma sa zín!
3SG cause FHW PRF 1SG have FHW fear

# Phonology
## Vowels
  Front Back
----- --------------- ----------------
High #/i y/ #(i y) #/u/ #(u)
Mid #/e ẽ/ #(e į) #/o õ/ #(o ų)
Low #/a æ̃/ #(a ę) #/ɑ̃/ #(ą)
----- --------------- ----------------
The nasal vowels, if not followed by another vowel, may also be spelt with a vowel followed by «n» or «ŋ». The vowel #/ẽ/ can also be written «yn/yŋ», and #/ɑ̃/ can be written «on/oŋ».
### Diphthongs
The following falling diphthongs are allowed in the same positions:
- Oral vowels: «ei ae oe ui iu eo ao ou», pronounced as written
- Nasal vowels:
<div class=twocol>
- \#/ẽĩ̯/ «iń», «yń»
- \#/æ̃ĩ̯/ «ęi», «eń», «ein»/«eiŋ»
- \#/ɑ̃ẽ̯/ «ąe», «ań», «oń», «aen»/«aeŋ», «oen»/«oeŋ»
- \#/õẽ̯/ «ųi», «uń», «uin»/«uiŋ»
- \#/ẽũ̯/ «įu», «im», «ym», «iun»/«iuŋ»
- \#/æ̃õ̯/ «ęo», «em», «eon»/«eoŋ»
- \#/ɑ̃õ̯/ «ąo», «am», «om», «aon»/«aoŋ», «oun»/«ouŋ»
- \#/ɔ̃ũ̯/ «um»
</div>
In inflection classes, words ending with a nasal diphthong written with a consonant letter (e.g. «--iń») are treated as ending with a consonant, and after adding a suffix will often be resyllabified: «elem» #/eˈlæ̃ũ/ 'child' → «eˈle.mi» #/elemi/ 'children'.
### Umlaut
Many words undergo a vowel change when adding some inflectional endings:
- «o» and «a» become «e»;
- «e» becomes «i»;
- «ae», «oe», «eo», «ao», and «ou» all become «ei»;
- «u» becomes «y»;
- «ą» becomes «ę»;
- «ę», «ų», and «ųi» become «į»;
- «eń» and «uń» become «iń»;
- «ąe», «ań», «oń», «ųi», «uń», «ęo» and «ąo» become «ęi» or «eń»;
- «am» and «om» become «em»;
- «em» becomes «im»;
- «i», «y», «ei», «ui», «iu», «iń», «ęi», «įu», and «im» are unchanged.
This affects all vowels in the word: «pox́ae» 'sibling' → «pex́eig» 'siblings'.
### Allophony
- Monophthongs other than «i y u» become #[ə] at the end of a word if not stressed.

- Voiceless consonants are strongly aspirated, particularly continuants.
- \#/l ɬ/ are strongly velarised except before #/i e ẽ æ̃ y/.
- The letter «ȝ», usually arising from soft mutation of «g», denotes #/w/ before #/o õ a ɑ̃/, #/ʑ/ before #/i e ẽ æ̃ y/, and is silent before «u» or if not before a vowel. It originates from a former \*#/ɣ/. In endings for the dual it always denotes #/w/.
- When not before a vowel, #/w/ is silent. (This situation arises from soft mutation of #/b/).
- The letter «ḍ», originally #/ð/, is silent, but does split up diphthongs if it occurs between two vowels.
- The sound #/x/ is spelt «ṭ» if it results from an aspirate mutation of «t», and otherwise is «h».
## Syllable structure
[EBNF], where `VV(x)` means all consonants `x` expands to must match in
voicing: for example, the rule `VV(plosive, fricative)` allows «ps» and «bz»
but not «pz».
[EBNF]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBNF
```ebnf
word = {syll}, last syll.
syll = [initial], vowel, [final].
initial = consonant
| VV(plosive, fricative)
| VV(fricative, plosive)
| VV(plosive or mut, liquid)
| VV(('s' | 'z'), (nasal | liquid))
| 'kn̥' | 'ɡn' | 'km̥' | 'ɡm' | 'pn̥' | 'bn'
| velar, 'w'.
final = consonant - nasal.
last syll = [initial], vowel, [last final].
last final = final
| VV((consonant - (plosive | affricate)), plosive)
| VV(plosive, fricative).
plosive or mut = plosive | fricative | nasal | 'w'.
(* plosives or mutations of plosives *)
liquid = 'w' | 'l' | 'ɾ' | 'ɬ' | 'ɾ̥'.
```
- If a voiceless sonorant is in a cluster, then the dot isn't written.
- A syllable may be written with a nasal consonant in the coda, but this indicates a nasal vowel.
- Written double consonants are pronounced the same as single ones: «blaosso» 'you drink' is pronounced #/ˈblɑo̯sə/, the same as if it were «blaoso».
- Vowels in hiatus are rare, and result from «ḍ» becoming silent.
[S]: #mutations
### Mutations
The mutations are called _soft_ #!(S)!, _hard_ #!(H)!, _aspirate_ #!(A)!, and _nasal_ #!(N)!. Blank cells indicate that the consonant doesn't change. '' indicates that «h» disappears in the soft mutation.
Soft mutation often causes consonants to change voicing. If they are part of a cluster, then this change propagates due to syllable structure constraints, but only the first one changes in the written form: «psu» 'tree'  «bsu» #/bzu/.

## Stress
Stress is on the final syllable of a word's stem, and is not moved by the
addition of inflectional endings:
«ṛimsą» #/r̥ẽũ̯ˈsɑ̃/ 'doctor',
«ṛimsęȝi» #/r̥ẽũ̯ˈsæ̃.wi/ 'two doctors'.
# Nouns
Nouns are differentiated by three animacy levels: human #!(HUM/H)!, other animate #!(ANI/A)!, and inanimate #!(INA/I)!. In some places (e.g. verb inflection), #!A! and #!I! are merged into non-human #!(N)!. A few nouns are higher on the animacy level than their meaning would usually dictate. Most nouns also distinguish between three numbers, singular, dual, and plural.
The cases are ergative, absolutive, and dative; the vast majority of prepositions govern the absolutive case.
N.B. All «ȝ» in dual endings denote #/w/, regardless of environment.

</figure>
## Definiteness {#indef}
Indefinite nouns are preceded by the article «na», which causes nasal mutation if the word starts with a consonant, and causes a word starting with a vowel to be prefixed with «n». Definite nouns have no article.
<div class=twocol>
- «ąeźe» '[the] lizard'
- «na nąeźe» 'a lizard'
- «klos» '[the] river'
- «na ŋlos» 'a river'
</div>
# Adjectives
Attributive adjectives precede the noun the modify, unless the indefinite article [«na»](#indef) is also present, in which case they follow the noun. If they follow the noun, then the first undergoes soft mutation if it ends with an oral vowel, and nasal mutation if it ends with a nasal vowel.
- «hwes coros ąeźe» '[the] good big lizard'
(adjectives precede noun «ąeźe»)
- «na nąeźe <u>w</u>es coros» 'a good big lizard'
(«na» is present, so adjectives follow noun, and «hwes» is mutated after «--e»)
## Agreement
Attributive adjectives agree with the case but not number or animacy of their head noun. The endings depend on whether they end with a consonant or vowel.
<center>
«hwes» 'good',
«pou» 'black'
</center>

# Pronouns
__TODO__
- Dative forms are also used for possession:
<div class=twocol>
- «tou ȝeźy» 'my dog';
- «lu geźy» 'your and my dog';
- «pox́aeḷ eo ȝeźy» 'the (my) sibling's dog'.
</div>
- When used possessively:
- pronouns ending in a vowel cause a soft mutation;
- those ending in «h» drop the «h» and cause an aspirate mutation.
- Pronouns themselves ignore all mutations caused by preceding words.
- The first-person dual has separate forms for
"you and I" (inclusive, #!1IDU!)
and "someone else and I" (exclusive, #!1EDU!).
- **TODO**: multiple 3rd person pronouns (or none, and lots of demonstratives)

# Verbs
- Verbal inflection features a strong split between imperfective #!(IMPF)! and
perfective #!(PF)!. The distinction is usually reflected by one of a few
suffixes, some of which, marked with †, trigger umlaut. However, some verbs
have different stems in the two aspects.
<div class=twocol>
- «te»^^†^^
- «
- «wa»
- «eś»^^†^^
- «–»^^†^^ (i.e., only umlaut)
</div>
- Verbs distinguish only between human and non-human #!(N)!, and then only in
the third person. The third person non-human dual is the same as the plural.
- The future tense is indicated by the particle «ze» immediately before the
present form of the verb, which induces a soft mutation.
## Conjugation <span class=c>I</span>
Verb stems ending in a vowel. If the stem comes immediately before a person ending starting with a vowel or «ȝ», then «i» and «u» become «e» and «o», respectively. The three types («a», «e»/«i», and «o»/«u») are the same apart from endings which introduce diphthongs. The «ȝ» in #!3NSG! is silent.)

## The copula
- The word 'to be' is highly irregular, and has a number of major differences from other verbs:
- It maintains a distinction between nonhuman animate and inanimate subjects.
- It has no perfective form.
- If the subject is a personal pronoun then the pronoun is dropped.
- Disyllabic forms are stressed on the first syllable.
- Forms ending with a vowel cause a soft mutation on the following word.
- The forms «wi wiȝ» are pronounced #/y wi/.
- The citation form is «as».

# Examples
## North Wind and the Sun
_The North Wind and the Sun were disputing which was the stronger, when a traveller came along wrapped in a warm cloak. They agreed that the one who first succeeded in making the traveller take his cloak off should be considered stronger than the other. Then the North Wind blew as hard as he could, but the more he blew the more closely did the traveller fold his cloak around him; and at last the North Wind gave up the attempt. Then the Sun shined out warmly, and immediately the traveller took off his cloak. And so the North Wind was obliged to confess that the Sun was the stronger of the two._

title: back on my bullshit

<center style="width: 70%; margin: auto; font-style: italic">
What happens if Ancient Greek, Latin, and Welsh are mashed together by someone
who doesn't know any of them? A big mess is what.

# Phonology
## Vowels
<figure>
| | Front | Mid | Back |
|-----:|:-------------:|:-------------:|:-------------:|
| High | #(i) #/i, iː/ | | #(u) #/u, uː/ |
| Mid | #(e) #/ɛ, eː/ | #(ə) #/ə, ɘː/ | #(o) #/ɔ, oː/ |
| Low | #(a) #/aː/ | #(a) #/ä/ | |
</figure>
* The allowed diphthongs #/ai̯ au̯ ei̯ eu̯ oi̯ ou̯ ui̯/. They are written as their
two component vowels.
* Length and stress are indicated [using diacritics]{#dia}:
* stressed short vowels with an acute accent (#(á));
* unstressed long vowels with a macron (#(ā));
* stressed long vowels with a circumflex (#(â)).
Diphthongs have the diacritic on the first letter. Stress isn't indicated
on monosyllabic words, unless inflections are added which cause the word to
become multisyllabic.
### Umlaut
At certain times, either the last vowel, or all vowels in some words, will
undergo *i*-umlaut, where they will move closer to #[i]. This process is
reflected in the spelling of affected forms. Vowels move one step along the
following graphs:
<figure>
<object data=iuml-p.svg>
<div class=twocol>
* \#(e → i)
* \#(o, ə, a → e)
* \#(u → y)
</div>
</object>
<object data=iuml-d.svg>
<div class=twocol>
* \#(ei → i)
* \#(eu, oi, ai → ei)
* \#(ou → eu)
* \#(au → ai)
</div>
</object>
</figure>
Forms which cause umlaut of the last vowel are marked with a †; forms causing
umlaut of the whole words are marked ‡. Only some words are affected by umlaut;
those which do are also marked with †.
### Stress
Stress is unpredictable and is indicated with diacritics (see [above](#dia)).
Monosyllabic words are unmarked for stress, but when inflections are added
which give them more than one syllable, those forms of the word *are* marked.
Most affixes don't affect the stress; those which do are pointed out. Compound
words have the primary stress on the last root.
## Consonants
| | Labial | Coronal | Dorsal |

# Declension I
Words ending in a short «e», «ə», or «a», indicated as «V» in the following
table.
- The illicit sequence «-əi-» becomes «-ei-», and «-ii-» becomes «-i-».
- If the penultimate syllable of the stem is short and stressed, and the
ending begins with a long vowel, then the stress is moved to that long
vowel.

# Declension II
Words ending in a long vowel or diphthong.
- Endings are the same for animate and inanimate.
- Second declension nouns never experience umlaut.
- If the stem ends in a front vowel «ē ī» or a diphthong ending in «i», then
«ᴇ» denotes «e»; otherwise, «ə».

# Declension III
Words ending in a short vowel followed by «s».
- The illicit sequence «-əi» becomes «-ei», and «-ii» becomes «-i».
- For these words the dual is the same as the plural.
- Unlike in the first declension, the stress doesn't move.

# Phonology
## Vowels
| | Front | Back |
|-----:|:----------------:|:----------------:|
| High | #/i ɪ/ «y i» | #/u ʊ/ «ů u» |
| Mid | #/e ɛ ɛ̃/ «é e į» | #/o ɔ õ/ «ó o ų» |
| Low | #/a æ̃/ «ä ę» | #/ɑ ɒ̃/ «a ą» |
Words have vowel harmony in non-nasal vowels between "tense" and "lax". Vowels are also slightly longer when stressed. If a root contains only nasal vowels, then the harmony defaults to lax.
| | | | | | |
|-------|------|------|------|------|------|
| Tense | #(y) | #(ů) | #(é) | #(ó) | #(ä) |
| Lax | #(i) | #(u) | #(e) | #(o) | #(a) |
## Consonants
| | Labial | Dental | Dorsal |
|----------:|:------------:|:------------:|:------------:|
| Plosive | #/p b/ «p b» | #/t d/ «t d» | #/k/ «k» |
| Fricative | #/f/ «f» | #/s z/ «s z» | #/x ʁ/ «h ř» |
| Nasal | #/m/ «m» | #/n/ «n» | #/ŋ/ «g» |
| Other | #/w/ «w» | #/l ɾ/ «l r» | #/j/ «j» |
The sequence #/ŋŋ/ is written «ng» (and pronounced #[ŋɡ]).
## Syllable structure
The basic syllable structure is $C(C)(J)V(J)(C(C)(s))$; allowed clusters at the start of a syllable are $Ps$, $Bz$, $\bar{C}L$, or #/mb nd ŋŋ/, and at the end are $L\bar{C}(s)$ and #/mp mb nt nd ŋk ŋŋ/, where:
<div class=twocol>
- $V$ is a vowel,
- $C$ is any consonant,
- $\bar C$ is any consonant other than $L$ or $J$,
- $L$ is one of #/l ɾ ʁ/,
- $J$ is one of #/j w/,
- $P$ is one of #/p t k/,
- $B$ is one of #/b d ŋ/,
- The sequences #/ɪj/, #/ij/, #/ʊw/, or #/uw/ are not allowed before another consonant.
</div>
Alternatively, in [EBNF]:
```ebnf
syllable = initial, [glide], nucleus, [final];
initial = consonant
| ('p' | 't' | 'k'), 's'
| ('b' | 'd' | 'g'), 'z'
| (consonant - liquid), liquid
| 'mb' | 'nd' | 'ŋŋ';
nucleus = (vowel, glide) - ('ɪj' | 'ij' | 'ʊw' | 'uw');
final = nonglide, ['s']
| [liquid], nonglide - liquid, ['s']
| 'mp' | 'mb' | 'nt' | 'nd' | 'ŋk' | 'ŋŋ';
nonglide = consonant - glide;
glide = 'j' | 'w';
liquid = 'l' | 'ɾ' | 'ʁ';
```
[EBNF]: //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extended_Backus-Naur_form
## Stress
Stress falls on the last syllable of the stem. (In a compound word, the last syllable of the last stem.) Inflectional endings do not cause it to move.
- «fälés» 'woman' #/faˈleːs/
- «fälésäm» 'woman.#!GEN!' #/faˈleː.sam/
## Allophony
- As mentioned, #/ŋŋ/ is pronounced #[ŋɡ].
- \#/l/ is #[ɫ] anywhere except before one of #/j i/.
- \#/p t k/ are affricated to #[pf ts kx] directly before a stressed vowel, and to #[pf tʃ kx] at the end of a word.
- \#/b d/ become #[v ð] word finally if immediately preceded by a vowel.
- \#/ŋ/ becomes #[ɡ] after another #/ŋ/, before #/z/, or when not next to a vowel.
- \#/s z/ become #[ʃ ʒ] at the end of a word or before a plosive.
- \#/d/ becomes #[dʒ] at the end of a word if _not_ directly preceded by a vowel.
- \#/t d s z/ become #[tʃ dʒ ʃ ʒ] before one of #/j i e/. The #/j/ is then dropped if there was one.
- \#/ɛ e/ are lowered to #/æ/ before a velar (including #[ɫ]).
- A #[ʔ] is inserted into word boundaries with a vowel on both sides.
Voicing of consonants assimilates backwards over syllable boundaries, except when a nasal consonant is present, in which case the cluster always becomes voiced.
# Morphology
## Verbs
Verbs do not inflect themselves, but the conjugation is reflected on a highly fused particle following the main verb. This particle inflects for person, gender (in the third person), number, tense, and a distinction between perfective/imperfective. The citation form of this particle is «as», the #!1SG!;#!PRS!;#!IMP! form. The #!3X! form is used with a group of people/objects of multiple genders, as well as for unknown or indefinite referents (whether singular or plural), and impersonal sentences such as instructions on signs.
### Present
- «řazgų kéd as» 'I am eating bread'
- «plas énlä» 'He sneezes'

| #!3X! | — | #(ójlós) | — | #(éwlós) |
Questions, either of the yes/no or of the content kind, are indicated by a particle «ům» (which is also the verb 'to ask') appearing after the inflection of «as».
Other aspects and moods are indicated with auxiliary verbs.

## Nouns & adjectives
### Case
Nouns have five cases: nominative, accusative, genitive, dative, and locative. The last of these is used only with preposition-type words. As a result of the inflectional suffixes, nouns almost always end in a consonant. The only exception is words ending in #/ɪ/ or #/i/, which gain an extra #/j/ before the suffixes. The spelling similarly gains a «j».
Nouns are divided into a few classes. Each class requires the use of a specific inflection class of «as», labelled #!A!, #!B!, or #!C!. The conventional labels for the classes are:
I. Sapient #!(A)! sapients
II. Water #!(B)! bodies of water, and the sky
III. Ground #!(A)! the ground, rocks, metals, chemical elements
IV. Artifice #!(C)! handheld tools, small plastic items, electronics
V. Spiritual #!(C)! gods, the mind & soul, large natural events, language
VI. Containers #!(B)! boxes, pans, bowls, wardrobes, etc;
beds, chairs, and other furniture for sitting or lying on
VII. Clothing #!(B)! clothing and carried objects like umbrellas and bags
VIII. Food #!(C)! food and drink
IX. Animal #!(B)! animals (including mythical creatures)
(**TODO** zk names for genders)
Not all nouns fall into the class which the labels would suggest, and if none of the labels fit then the choice is arbitrary. (As is usual with #!NOM!#!ACC! languages, #!NOM!;#!SG! is the citation form in dictionaries.) People's names are assigned to whichever class they choose.
| | | #!I! | #!II! | #!III! | #!IV! | #!V! | #!VI! | #!VII! | #!VIII! | #!IX! |

Adjectives, including genitive nouns, agree in case with their head noun, but not number. Adjectives, except for possessive pronouns, attached to a genitive noun agree with that noun's head, but not with the genitive noun itself.

# Syntax
## Questions
To form a yes/no question, the particle «ům» is added to the end of the sentence.
<figure class=glosses>
```gloss
Bymů bälsůh ep ad ům?
bym-ů bäls-ůh ep ad ům
good-ACC mood-ACC;PL have 2SG;PRS;IMPF QU
Are you feeling good?
```
</figure>
To answer a question, conjugate «as» appropriately, and follow with «řab» for agreement and «zol» for disagreement. In formal circumstances the main verb stem may be echoed before the «as». Before «zol», a «s» or «z» at the end of the form of «as» is dropped.
<figure class=glosses>

```gloss
