Consonants
Korkin has the most similar consonant distribution to it's father language Proto-Karakin but unlike its father language it has lost most of its Palatal consonants. *1 ɾ and r are in free variation. They used to be phonemically different sounds in proto-Karakin.

Vowels
Korkin has the range of Vowels typical of most Jamesic languages.

Alphabet
Korkin orginialy did not use an Alphabet but insted used Morphemic pictographs that repersented the object it ment but by puting a box around it you would make the charater phonectic as apose to Morphemic meaning, but as the Xerxian Anatroid tribes started migrating and ivading Korkin Terrories they adoped Ännatroda has a writing system but many Korkins still use Old Korkin symbols as a ancestral and/or cultural connection, to use as a secret code , or just because they prefer simple drawings over random lines.

Phonotactics
Korkin Alowes for (C)(j,w)V/or allowed diphthong (n, m, ŋ, t, p, k, l, s, ɕ and ts) j and w cannot be combined with j or w. Korkin has the diphongs ai, oi , ei , au, eu and ui as well as long vowels. Some Cosonants may change if they are next to others. The final consonats will become voiced if they come before a voiced consonat becomeing (d, b, g, z, ʑ and dz). In older Korkin and Proto-Karakin ɾ and r used to be phohemicly differentiated but have merged in all surviving dilects. In the Tarminian Moutain Range area t and d have become palatalized into ʨ and ʥ and and the plosives p, b have lenitated into ɸ and β.

Grammar
Korkin has a simple grammar system all words are nouns by them selves and can be turned into verbs, it is more isolating then it's brother languages (Karutu and Chyukitu) but still uses some cases. Korkin has no adjectives and has to rely on the possessive case -dzu to describe things.

When they are tensed the word mïï is said before the verb but after the object and subject of a sentence. eg ''nasö hin gyömïï hinswe. (I just ate food).  Verbs are numbered based on how many times you are doing the action they replace -swe ''and they are The negative form of verbs is done in the same way as the nouns using the prefix wi-.
 * -pa once (pacifically once).
 * -koo twice.
 * -doi many times/ a few times.
 * -dzïn a lot of times.

Grouping
Korkin groups its nouns and verbs differently, nouns are grouped into boxes starting with kei- prefixed to the first item and -esh suffixed to the final item. eg ''keingyu zwuesh ngu. ''(boys and girls are people.) Verbs are just listed in order of them being completed. eg ''nasö gyömïï dzeswe, wiidbïks hinswe. (I got up, and then I ate wheetbix.)''

Possessive Particle and Describing
Korkin has a Possessive Particle -dzu that is used to describe who possesses the object or to describe that object. eg ''ma nasödzu wizyeimai! (don't touch/handle my tail) the thing that possesses the object is placed after the object it possesses, hence ma (tail) is owned by nasö (I, me, myself (I don't actually have a tail)) with -dzu ''suffixed to the possessor/owner.

Locative case
Korkin uses the locative case -tsai to indicate the location that the events of the sentence, eg. ''zwurim dzetsai ngaswe. (she sleeps in a tree). Also when suffixed with the verb case -swe , it indicates that it's going to that location, eg. nasö heutsaiswe. (''I go inside'). -tsaiswe is like 'go to'.

Syntax
Korkin is a subject-object-verb language. With it's grammatical particles located based on their relation to subject, object and/or verb. eg ''zyei nasödzu ma razhdzu zyeiswe. (''My hand touches your tail). Hence the possessives comes directly after the word it owns. The locative case goes after the object of the sentence and before the verb of the sentence, eg, ''Nwa Zaadooniadzu Ngu Miidosnyïtsai mïnguiswe. (''The Xerxian Anatroids(Zardonians) pushed the ') Korkins out of Miidos'ia (A high lightly hilled area that separates the Zardonian mountain range form the Orx Moutain range). ''Nwa dzïndzu Oksazwötsai Miidostsaiswe. (Many Xerxian Anatroids came form the Oxa plains/flats and entered Miidos'ia) ''This Example sentence shows that that the non-verb "tsai" word acts like "from" and that verb form "tsai" like before means "to".

Example text
This is the Miidosia-Tama records and the Miidos-Zardon war.

''“Tïnga !? Neu razhdzu Neu winasödzu, Mïnguikyang!”''

''“Gatugyaak! Zaattsai Nasödzu nyï kuiswe, Zaat Nasödzu nwa zuuheudzu kaiswe!”''

'' '"Zau! Rash nasö antyoo kwadzu." ''

"Zau, bweng kwadzu nasödzu. "

''Zwehitsyeitsai, nwa Zaat-Zaadondzu Miidoznyïtsaiswe, pweulya shyautsswe hinswe. Keingu tama-nwaesh dzïndzu Miidostsai heuswe. Keizaat-tama zaat-koke'esh Miidoznyïtsai mïnguiswe, Zaat-Zaadon Miidos Ngemkaiswe. Miidos kainwa koidzu könswe mïnguiswe, nwa dzïndzu dzïndzu tsaiswe.''

''Gemï, ngemngatu Miidozdzu zhwekswe, keikainwa nwaesh Miidos ryaalswe shyautsswe deingswe. Nasö Miidos mïnguiswe, Garasyimtsaiswe. Nasö ryauswe ryauswe, kazhgaradzyuu nwa ngatuswe neudzu.''

English Translation.

On the 64th(7 eights and 8) year(of the current leader), many Xerxesian Anatroids entered Zarat, killed and case out the native Oxa. The Tama tribe and Korke tribe (Xerxesian Anatroid tribes) where driven out (of Zarat), and they entered Miidosia. but the Miidosian army stopped them from entering. The Chief of the Tama tribe talked to king Raamyuingyu.

"The Ahrite Empire has driven the Tama and Korke tribes out (from the west)."

"What/So !? Your problems are not my problems, Be gone!!"(it's actually closer to "F### off!", but I softened it to "Be gone")

Wait!! If you give my tribe land, my tribe will fight off other invading Xerxesian Anatroids!

Yes! But Only if you serve me.

Yes, but only when it's necessary(to my tribe).

On the 66th(8 eights and 2) year. The Zardonian tribes entered Miidosia and started burning and pillaging towns and villages. Many Tama and Korkins entered the city of Miidos. Most of the Tama and Korke tribes fled from Miidos. The Zardonians besieged the city of Miidos. Despite killing and driving back many of them, they were too many attacking.

Today, the walls of Miidos where overrun and Zardonian warriors and people captured , burned and destroyed Miidos. I left Miidos and fled to Garasyim. I realy hope the mountians of the Karutu can stop the Zardonian horror.
