Osseshin

Setting
Osseshin is a language spoken in the fictional Asia region called Ossettastan by most of the world, and Ossetta by it's inhabitants. The region is located just south of Russia, with it's northern border along a section of the Don river, and part of the Sea of Azov. It is a cold climate, similar to an alpine climate. Due to recent modernization beginning in the 1970's, they have begun to split into 2 separate groups, who have parts of their cultures slightly departing, but they not at odds. The first group is the tribal Osseshins, who had the original culture. They live on and in the mountains themselves, and have used supplies to modernize the caves a little, but their primary mode of obtaining food is still to hunt, giving them a stereotype of being primitive. The second group are Village Osseshins who have established villages along the bases of mountains throughout the region. Though they are a peaceful culture, with very little fighting between tribes, they can be particularly warlike, and brutally destroy invaders.

Basic Grammar
===Stress===

First Syllable is stressed, unless marked. If the first vowel is R, the next vowel is stressed, unless marked. If a vowel is marked with an acute accent, that is the new point of stress. If a vowel is marked with a Diaeresis, it means that syllable is stressed, along with the primary. Note: you are able to use the acute accent and diaeresis in the same word, but not on the same letter.

Primary Á é í ó ú ý ŕ

Secondary Ä ë ï ö ü ÿ ȑ

Syllable Structure
The syllable structure in Osseshin is (C)VC(C). Remember that R can be both a vowel and consonant depending on whether it is surrounded by consonants. E.g. Vrt(Speed) works, but Rt would not work.

Syntax
Osseshin is a VSO language, which means the verb comes first, then the subject, then the direct object. In cases where it is needed, the indirect object follows the direct object. Also, adjectives and adverbs come after the word they describe, and prepositional phrases come after the word or phrase they describe as well.

Nouns
Nouns are declined by noun class, number, and case. The three noun classes are: Consonant Endings, -A endings, and -I endings.

Noun Declension
The tilde in the accusative case means that letter X turns into the letter Y in X~Y. So A~Ja means that the final A turns into Ja.

Verbs
Verbs are conjugated mainly by tense, and whether an action was a single action, or multiple. The latter has no strict rule on how to decide which one, but it is usually obvious and left to individual judgement. Verbs also have an internal vowel mutation rule for the imperative, and has a suffix for the participle.

Adjectives
Adjectives are to agree with the noun they describe in number and case by adding the ending or changed ending(in the case of the A and I accusative, and the plural A genitive) to the root adjective.
