Kha Adana

Classification and Dialects
Ka'adhana is a member of the D'erayan-Mysqan language family, spoken mainly in several dialects around the Mysqan peninsula. The 4 largest dialects spoken are Albarōri, Diena'ōri, Vengōri, and Mokevōri. Of the four, Albarōri is the most spoken, though Diena'ori is believed to be the original language due to its common use under the rule of the Yasi'inan Emperors over a thousand years ago.

Ka'adhāna is believed to at one point have contained grammatical gender, though the majority of this has been dropped save for a handful of nouns.

Nouns
Nouns will inflect in five cases. The Nominative, Accusative, Genitive, Dative, and Instrumental case. In the Nominative case the base noun will be used with no added suffix unless the noun ends in a vowel, where if the noun is plural a -d will be added to the base noun so that the -eq plural suffix can be added. In the Accusative case an -is suffix is added. If the noun ends in a vowel, the suffix will become -ris. If the noun already ends in -is the suffix will become -i'is and it will replace the -is in the base noun. The Genitive case is inflected by adding a -qan suffix. If a noun already ends in -qan or -gan the suffix will become -dan and will take the place of the -qan or -gan in the noun. -dan is also added if the base noun ends in -g. Inflection in the Dative case is shown with a -yv suffix. If a vowel comes before the suffix, it will become -hyv. If the noun already ends in -yv the -v will be replaced with -zh (yzh). More casual speech will usually group the Dative case with the Accusative unless the sentence would not make sense without a distinction between the two. Lastly, In the Instrumental case a -mar suffix is added to the end of the noun. If a noun already ends in -mar the suffix will become -sar and will replace the -mar in the noun.
 * Case

''Note: If the base noun ends with the initial sound of the suffix, the sounds will combine themselves. See Example 2.'' Nouns will inflect in three numbers. The Singular, Dual, and Plural forms. In the Singular form, no numeral suffix will be added to the noun. In the Dual form, a -ko suffix is added after the case suffix. In the Plural/Indefinite form, an -eq suffix is added after the case suffix. If adequate context is given, numeral inflection is not required for nouns, though case inflection still is. Inflection is also used to determine the definitiveness of a noun. This inflection changes the numeral inflection, therefore the definitive form was used previously in examples. In the indefinitive form the dual suffix becomes -kom while the plural suffix becomes -em. The Singular noun does not inflect, so its definitveness will be determined with articles.
 * Number
 * Definitiveness

Articles will inflect with nouns for number and definitiveness, but not for case. The definite article (tsud) will become tsuko and tsudeq, while the indefinite article (hāshi) will become hakom and hashem.
