Alphabet
The letters C, D, F, K, Ñ, P, Q, S, T and X represent two different sounds. The letter always produces the first sound - the second sound is only produced when the letter is between two vowels. Please note that this phenomenon (called consonant gradation) also occurs between different words.

Stress
The primary stress is always on the last syllable of a word stem.

Nouns
In TLOTN, nouns are declined for ... As TLOTN is a fusional language, all of the declensional categories mentioned above are expressed in a single suffix.
 * 1) their number - singular or plural
 * 2) their case - active, passive, dative, genetive, oblique

Consonantal declension
As the oblique case is quite vage and can have multiple meanings, it is usually combined with an adposition (all adpositions require the oblique case) to indicate a particular meaning.

Adjectives
In TLOTN, adjectives are not declined for number or case. However, they are declined for their grade of comparison.

Grade of comparison
Please note that the "j" is only inserted if the adjective ends on a vowel.

Please note that the comparative demands a genetive as a reference point.

Adverbs
Adverbs are fromed by adding "-(j)a" to the adjective.
