Solsprak

General information
Solsprak is spoken across the continent of Terra Morta and has changed little as the Ages have passed. Though the continent is vast, there are very few Solborn (Children of the Sun) left. Terra Morta (dead earth), once called Ohrosis Placiel (golden plains), has suffered the most during the past Ages. A mere 500,000 Solborn are still alive and speaking Solsprak. Cut off from the rest of the world, the words and warnings of Solborn have gone unheeded.

NOUN GENDER
In Solsprak nouns decline by the three different 'genders'. Animate Feminine: Used for animals, people, and titles. Dahs is the equivalent article used for all A.F. nouns. When referring to a plural noun, Dahs becomes Dahsha. Common A.F. noun endings are: a, ez, s, iel, i
 * EXAMPLE: Dahs Curiz (the female healer)   OR  Dahsha Curizha (the healers)

Animate Masculine: Used for animals, people, and titles. Vohs is the equivalent article used for all A.M. nouns. When referring to a plural noun, Vohs becomes Vohsha Common A.M. noun endings are: e, ion, r, pa
 * EXAMPLE: Vohs Curir (the male healer)  OR  Vohsha Curizha

Inanimate/Neutral: Used for non-living things, concepts, or living things that have no obvious gender. (Flowers, trees, toys, etc) Fahs is the equivalent article used for all Inanimate/neutral nouns. Common inanimate/neutral noun endings are: ios, ki, x, t, h, ed, r, y, l Neutral nouns may also use A.F. and A.M. noun endings from time to time, though it is rare. The plural form of Fahs is Fahsha, though unlike in gendered nouns, the plural noun defined by the article does not always add the ha at the end. Instead, the letter s often denotes a plural noun.
