Zoran

Zoran is a fan-made conlang for the Zoras in the Legend of Zelda Franchise. This language is a fanon project.

Classification and Dialects
Zoran is divided into two big dialects: The Mainland Dialect (Ranairumat, literally translates to "Lanayru Tongue") is the most common dialect spoken in Zora's Domain and a dying dialect known as the Non-Lanayru Dialect (Bhu-Ranairumat, which literally translates to "Non-Lanayru Tongue"), spoken by the Zora born outside of the Zora's Domain.

Pronouns
Pronouns have three persons and are divided by singular, dual, and plural forms. Zoran also have normal/casual pronouns with humble/formal pronouns. Pronouns have declension depending on the ending of their nominative case as shown below.

Declension 5: Diphthongs
Note: The "(di)" stands for the default diphthong. The "(i)" stands for the initial letter of the diphthong.

Additional Verb Prefixes
The formality prefix always goes first, then the passive voice prefix goes next.

Adjectives
In order to reduce confusion of adjectives and nouns, all non-predicative adjectives have declensions or added with suffixes in order to avoid confusion. Below are the charts for the adjective declensions:

Syntax
A unique feature Zoran has is its fluid syntax that affect the meaning of a sentence,, specifically the verb(s). Zoran has three moods which syntax heavily affects the meaning of a sentence:

As some have noticed, commas are ONLY used to separate clauses. Therefore, a sentence with two independent clauses is grammatically equivalent compared to a sentence with one dependent clause.
 * A Subject-Object-Verb (SOV) represents an indicative mood. This is the "default" sentence.
 * A Subject-Verb-Object (SVO, usually just VO) represents an imperative mood.
 * A Verb-Subject-Object (VSO) represents an interrogative mood.
 * An Object-Subject-Verb (OSV) syntax is used when the clause is a dependent clause. The subordinating clause goes first in the sentence.
 * An Object-Verb-Subject (OVS) syntax is used with a clause containing a transitional word. Like the OSV Syntax, the transitional word goes first.
