Denkan

General information
Denkan is the language spoken by the Denkan people, and it has official status in the Denkan Federation and it is spoken by over 350 million people. The origins of the language are from the Old Denkan Empire Age, its earliest known origin traces back to the Tatsuk language. Attempts to find a relative for the Denkan or Tastuk language family have been made, with hypothesis associating it with Indo-European, Iberian-Basque or even Altaic languages.

Nouns
Nouns decline according to number and grammar case.

Plural
Nouns in plural add -m suffix to the word stem when ending in vocal. When e nding in consonant the last syllable is modified.

Verbs
Verbs are conjugated by tense, aspect and mood. Tense is marked by a declension in the word stem, while aspect and mood are indicated by a particle added before or after the verb.

The following tables show the conjugation of the verb Vann ( to go). There are two aspects: perfective and imperfective. Verbs are usually in the perfective aspect (no particle added), while the imperfective aspect is marked by adding ze before the verb.

There are a few irregular verbs: zerh (to be) and both (to exist). Verb to be is the only one to have a singular and plural form in the present and future tense. The only exception to the rule found in the verb both is the present tense (iz) and that the past form is the root form itself. Verbs with the -oth ending remain the same in the past tense (e.g. toth (to close) in the past tense would be toth as well (closed)).

Accents and Dialects
Since the Imperial Age, the Denkan language has had regional variations. Nowadays, due to standardization and mass media the spoken language has become more homogenous across the Denkan nation but still with signific ant variations.
