Vöxek

=Setting= Vöxek is a language that I create since 2006. It does not have a basic objective, it is for fun and i always have fun with it. It is almost complete. The grammar is very easy and simple. I have been always thinking about making it very simple. Maybe the pronunciation can be hard sometimes, but it is just to adapt to your mothertongue. No worries.

In the beginning I had no notions of languages, but I studied various languages, so I understand a lot about this subject. Free to contact me.

=Basic Grammar= Grammar is based in Nordic and Indo-european languages. Some vocabularies are from Greek/Latin ruled by the Italian grammar and the alfabet has some Turkish/Polish influence. The formation of words characterized by a preposition is an idea i had from Finnish, a totally declinated language. Vöxek is very world wided.

ENGLISH - vocabularies, verbal times, prepositions, grammar

GERMAN - vocabularies, verbal times, prepositions, pronunciation, grammar, endings, numbers

DUTCH - double-letters (ee;aa;ij...), pronunciation, the alfabet song

DANISH - pronunciation, glottal stop, middled d (ð), vocabularies, pronounce, grammar, some letters in the alfabet,numbers

NORWEGIAN - same Danish

SWEDISH - vocabularies, endings

GREEK/LATIN - words that in English end with -tion change for -zione, vocabularies

ITALIAN - endings - zione, vocabularies

POLISH/TURKISH - letters of the alfabet (with acute (visual changing): ex: ł, ś, ş, ç, etc)

FINNISH - endings, grammar

DEN NÖRGEN å NÖRGENNE (The numbers)

Vom 1 til 10

1 - ejn 2 - tår 3 - drög 4 - viert 5 - vems 6 - seps 7 - seet 8 - åtte 9 - wöld

10 - des

ET ALVABET ò ALVABETTE (The alfabet)

A a  -closed, extended, lips not rounded. Like aw in Sh aw. It is exactly the sound of á in Irish words like h á lainn, t á etc.

Å å - very very closed o, almost with the mouth closing, rounded. Like å in Danish -forr å de

Æ æ - almost like the Danish æ, but extended.

Ä ä - opened e sound like a in "f a st" (American accent) or "h ä hn" (German)

B b - normal B

C c - sound of -ts like Esperanto -s c ien c o /stsientso/

Ç ç - like -ch in German -mäd ch en

D d - a little aspirated, like -dz but very soft. The Brittish people use this D. Sometimes it can be "hidding"a soft glottal stop ( ' ) or a total glottal stop ( " ). For example, when it is between N and ER, it configures a total glottal stop.

Slender /SLAY-n" - ah/

Kender /KAY-n" -ah/

Romnder /ROH-m-n"- ah/

etc

Ð ð - when forming syllabes is like -th in the English word th at. When alone is the middle sound of T and TH. Like -me d (Danish) or -ma ð ur (Icelandic).

E e - closed e sound like e in -h e la (Swedish); s ay, d ay , st ay (English) m i j (Dutch) - without the i sound in the end.

Ë ë - opened a sound like in -h e ight

F f - normal f sound but it just can come alone in the word. Like -das f, never like in - fadd.

G g - sound of g in - g arçon (French); for g et.

H h - gutural sound. Almost like the English one in - h ere, but stronger. Ex.: Danish - h edder or German - h eißen

I i - normal i sound. It cannot come alone like in - heit. Ex.: -b ea t; sl ee p

J j - i sound, to forme syllabes WITH SOME VOWEL. It cannot be the sound of -i in a sylabe made for a consonant IN the -j. . Ex.: sjal, hjelm , vjeres , terje, sonja , jester, Johann.

K k - normal k sound. There is no -ck combination

L l - when forming syllabes is the English L. Alone is like German or Danish. Ex.: -a l t

Ł ł - like the English w in - w ater, w aitress and alone is the same L in English -bu l b

M m - normal m

N n - normal n

O o - opened o sound like -h o t but with lips rounded. Try the word -th ó in (Irish)

Ö ö - closed o sound like -h o me or Swedish -d ö rr, but not with lips too rounded. More like "ou".

Ø ø - umlaut o/e (lips rounded pronouncing e)

P p - normal p, a little bit aspirated

R r - very complex letter (difficult to pronounce). Forming syllabe it is like Danish (half gutural, half artificial). Alone it can be like in English or like in Dutch. Ex.: p r øver, r ød (Danish), g aat, g elluki g (Dutch) and after aa it is like English.

S s - normal s sound like - s oup. Between vowels it has a LITTLE z sound, very soft

,S ,s - like English SH. Normally changed by the combination SKJ.

T t - aspirated t, but soft. Don't make confusion with C. It can be replaced by a stød (glottal stop) in some cases.

Ŧ ŧ - Like th in English wi th or th ink.

Ÿ ÿ - sound of "ai" like in German -h ei ßen.

Z - strong -dz sound

SOME RULES (basic)

It has two forms to write. Separatif and Grøter. It means some changes in the structure.

Ex.: De kid er am heure höce (Separatif)

Kid de er heure höce m (Grøter)

Both meaning The kid is in his house

Èjkon här með heuren vamilien til de park gørt (Separatif)

Èjkon här heuren vamilien með park ke til gørt (Grøter)

Both meaning (The) little kids went to the park with their families

Grøter form can "compact" articles, prepositions or everything that has some influence in the noun.

The sentence order in Present Tense is SVO (Subject-Verb-Object)

I will represent separatif for S and grøter for G.

Ex.: Jag her een hönd (S)

Jag her hönd de (G)

Both meaning "I have a dog"

For past tenses (formed with the verb -to have) the order depends on the time that passes from the time of speaking.

Subject - Verb hagen (to have) in the present tense -      object      -      participle verb �

JAG                     HER                                           EEN HÖND               SET

(I saw a dog) or I have a dog seen

Subject - hagen - participle verb - object

JAG         HER              SAGT            DŸ

(I have told you)

=Example text & more = THIS IS A SIMPLE TEXT IN WHICH EVERYTHING HAPPENS ON THE PAST. IT IS IN THE SEPARATIF FORM

Dèt wer dèt ......

Jester, een serr hanöf kwijnis her með häre vamilie til de ShoppingMall gørt. Har her an some störh een tojt set. Har her om häre mædre spørget wis har kune dat tojt hagen.

De mædre her 'jë sagt en her dèt keuvet. De kwijnis her ståra birkomt en så ðem wer til hoom gørt.

THE SAME TEXT IN GRØTER FORM

Dèt wer dèt........

Serr hanöf kwijni sse her häre vamilie með ShoppingMall til gørt. Har har some störam to jtte set. Har her häre mædre m spørget wis har kune tojtte hagen.

Mædret her 'jë sagt en her dèt keuvet. Kwijn sse her ståra birkomt en så ðem här hoom til gørt.

See the difference? The text can be littler and without little words like prepositions and articles.

PRONOUNS

In Vöxek, to express respect for someone is easy. It is just to use the correct pronoun.

INFORMAL

Jag - I

Du - You

Heu/Har/Dèt - He/She/It

________________________

Wi - We

Dun - You (plural)

Ðem - They

FORMAL

Jag - I

Die - Sir (Mr/Miss)

Won - You

_____________________

Jagen - We

Dien - Sir (plural) (Mrs/Miss's)

Ðem/Wøn - They/You (plural)

VERBS

In Vöxek, the verbs have a particularity. They have plural form (!) Yes, thats it. If the verb is used with 1st, 2nd or 3rd person/plural and if it is regular, it goes to its plural form.

Infinitive -&gt; termination is unique, and correspond to the regular plural form: -en

Ex.: honen (to eat) &gt;&gt; radical: -hon ; ending: - en (to eat)

høren (to hear) &gt;&gt; radical: -hør ; ending: -en (to hear)

yorten (to think) &gt;&gt; radical: -yort ; ending: -en (to think)

Also, there is a form to express infinitive, used in some grammar parts i'll explain later.

It is by adding the word -ät before the verb and removing the -en

ät hon

ät hør

ät yort

PRESENT TENSE

Add -er to singular

So we have (Informal) &gt; Jag, Du, Heu/Har/Dèt &gt; hon er /hør er /yort er.

The other ones will be like the infinitive (plural).

Past tense

It is like examples in the beginning, with the verb -to have

TO HAVE = HAGEN (irregular)

Jag her

Du her

Heu/Har/Dèt her

Wi her

Dun här

Ðem här

To the past tense (something that has finished), -hagen is conjugated in the present+verb participle

As I used singular examples above, now I use plural form.

&gt;&gt; Ðem här dèt [jätt] sagt

(They said it or "They have it [already] said")

To express something that still happen, the order changes:

&gt;&gt; Ðem här sagt dèt

(They have been saying it or "They have said it")

Note the difference:

Ðem här dèt sagt (finished)

Ðem här sagt dèt (still in progress)

Just the order can tell you the difference. The words are the same (!)

To express things like -could, -would etc there are some words, but there is also a verbal time called päst vutur that (I think) English does not have.

Basically, could = kune or kåd (depends on where it is placed) and would = wune or wud

FUTURE

This can be simple for Indo-European languages speakers, because future is done by adding some futural word. Ex.: German: werden; Danish/Norwegian: vil ; Swedish: vill ; English: will  etc

Previously, this particle was -wirt, but in day-speech it is easier to use -wil. So I use -wil here.

Formula: Subject+wil+ät+verb without -en+verb+object

Ex.: (S)       Jag    wil            ät se                         een ønsk

(G)             Jag      wil        ät se                         ønsk ke

There are more types of futur, as happens to the past. I won't put here because its more complex. Free to message me, i can send my PowerPoints explanations.

NOUNS

As my personal opinion, I HATE male/female atribuitions for things. So I started to think about an structurated gender formation. Structurated doesn't mean difficult. By the way, it is the simpler one I know.

1. Articles (I hate them)

As all Indo-European languages has it, so Vöxek has it.

Before talk about articles, I have to explain the genders. In Vöxek there are 4 ones.

Know..

''KOOME GENDRE ; ENKER GENRE ; NEUTRE GENDRE &gt; käse 1 ; käse 2  Koome words are called '"K.E." '''words. By this name, you can always infer that a koome word will start by a consonant and end in a vowel.

Enker words are called''' "E.R." '''words. Do I need to explain why?

Neutre käse 1 is when the word is started and ended by a consonant

Neutre käse 2 is when the word is started and ended by a vowel
