General information
Møðletþung (/mø.ðlet.θuŋ/) is a posteriori conlang which belong to the northern germanic languages family. It has evolved from low trudanelange and it has become an analytic language, the phonology has also changed and a lot of words seem different because of lenition and gender's removal.

Another think to have into consideration is that the verbs "Årmakon" and "Feraton" from hukketrudanjälangvig has become one verb called " på Vøre" that means "to be". Though the most of tenses are still flexives the future and conditional tenses has become analytic.

It is divided in two main dialects, the northern dialect which use the phonemes /ɹ/ and /ɻ/ instead of  /ʁ/ which is used in the southern one.

This language has only 3 irregular verbs and all of them belong to the family of the strong verbs, those verbs are Vøre (to be), Hafat (to have) and Hebb (to have).

An auxiliar verb which is usfull to know about is the verb "på Hebb" that has as equivalent the english verb "to have" and the spanish verb "haber", but only when is use in perfects like the sentence "I have made a cake" or in phrases like "there is/there are...", so, why is this verb important? because as in german you can use the present perfect instead of using simple past.
