Arelian

Classification and Dialects
Arelian (Arelex) is an a priori, tripartite, engineerined language with fluid parts of speech; only one morpheme in a word determines part of speech, and words can be freely converted between nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, participles, and even pronouns.

An interesting feature of this language is a complete lack of a morphosyntactic alignment (which I call "prepositional" alignment). In this system, one noun (doesn't matter which one) in a clause is unmarked, taking the absolute declension (no relation to absolutive case), and all other nouns use prepositions to indicate their case, and are declined to the prepositional case.

Vowels
In addition to these vowels, there are two dipthongs -- /ai/ and /ʌu/

Writing System
Two pronunciations simply indicates allophony to conform to surrounding sounds. The only diacritic used is ā ē ī ō ū which indicates a long, stressed vowel.

Nouns
Nouns in Arelian decline to case and number, as shown below. There are only two declension classes of nouns, which are not analogous at all. There are also few irregular ones.

Class I (-ex)
Class one nouns are the ones that exist already as nouns.

Class II (-ic)
Class two nouns are the ones that originally existed as other parts of speech but were then formed as nouns.

Irregular Nouns
The following is a list of irregular nouns and their forms, listed in the following order: ABS singular, ABS plural, PREP singular, PREP plural
 * Lektiz - thing
 * Lektiz
 * Lektici
 * Lektice
 * Lekticje
 * Aymol - milk
 * Aymol
 * Aymole
 * Aymolē
 * Aymoli

Verbs
There is only one verb conjugation class, with a few irregulars (all common intransitive verbs). In addition to tense and mood, verbs conjugate to the following subjects
 * First person singular
 * First person dual inclusive (you and I)
 * First person plural
 * Second person
 * Third person singular
 * Third person plural

What Do I Conjugate To?
'''Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the Arelian language is that it doesn't exhibit a tendency to any specific morphosyntactic alignment. Instead, one argument to a verb (can be the subject, direct object, or indirect object...doesn't really matter) retains the absolutive case, while the other arguments take the prepositional and the preposition that preceedes them determines their role in the sentence. '''

'When conjugating the main verb of a clause, the verb inflects to the argument in the absolutive case'', which, as previously mentioned, can be anything. Therefore, it's important to watch for which noun / pronoun is in the absolutive and which are in the prepositional, as it can completely change the direction of the sentence.'''

Infinitive Mood
The most basic of any verb form, the infinitives of verbs in Arelian end in either -at or -ov. Unlike other parts of speech, the -at and -ov endings don't have anything to do with whether or not the verb was derived from another part of speech, and in all other moods the verb forms are identical.

Realis Mood
The realis mood is quite broad, and actually includes a few irrealis moods (oops). It corresponds to the English indicative, subjunctive, and conditional, with the conditional functioning more as a tense in Arelian (since it also exists in the imperative mood). The present/future subjunctive is conjugated as the Future, and the past subjunctive is conjugated as the Conditional. In the Realis, 1pi is conjugated as 1p (we)

Imperative Mood
There are only two tenses in the imperative mood, and they both conjugate only in the 1di and 2 forms. In this mood, 1pi is conjugated as 1di (you and I).

Adjectives
Arelian adjectives have three inflection classes. Class A consists of original adjectives, Class B consists of adjectives formed from Class I nouns, and Class C consists of adjectives formed from verbs and Class II nouns.
