Sythen

Overview

= Setting =

Sythen is the primary language of the various Sythen races (the drak'il-, vend'il-, qal'il-, and lae'il-syth), from the world of Cirundi. Originally intended as a trade language between the fractious tribes, and clans of Dragaturak, the home continent of the drak'il, advancements in communication and transportation technologies lead to increased interaction between the consents and races of Cirudi, and Sythen quickly became the defacto language of interclanal communications. Often taught alongside traditional clan languages starting at a young age, Sythen has facilitated the development of the frozen world more so than any single technology.

''' * NOTE: Sythen is still largely a Work In Progress. It it my intent to make Sythen an agglutinative language with the OVS word order. I have worked on basic phonemes, have a rudimentary dictionary done, and have done some work on tenses, conjugation, and cases, but there is still a long long way to go *'''
