Norlingish

Writing System
(*) Indicates a digraph and the phoneme it represents, not members of the alphabet.

(**) The grapheme 's' indicates [ʃ] when it precedes a consonant (e.g. [ʃt], [ʃp], etc.), [z] when preceded by a voiced consonant (e.g. [dz], [bz]), or when at the end of a word, and [s] almost everywhere else. The digraph "ss" at the end of the word forces [s] instead of [z].

Nouns
Norlingish nouns are inflected for number and definiteness and can take a genitive suffix. They exhibit the following morpheme order:

In the course of the language's creation, all nouns dropped the neuter ending -et in favor of the masculine/general -en and -em, and only few words are still applicable to the feminine -an and -am; and all of which are words that refer to feminine person (e.g. kvinnan, magdan, vantingan)

Also, the distinction between strong and weak nouns was dropped, every noun is treated as Germanic weak nouns are (e.g. mann, manner; döer, döerer)

There are two definite states in Norling, such that "kvarem' "   and   " ðä kvar "  bear the same meaning.

Strong Verbs
There are four classes of strong verbs in Norlingish, requiring the final vowel of a verb root to undergo a change during conjugation into the past tense, as follows:

o → ö (e.g. kommen → köm)

e → ä (e.g. setten → sät)

ä → o (e.g. bären → bor)

i → u (e.g. finden → fund)
