Ofuro/Ophuro

Phonotactics
(C)(y)V(n), m and ng can be in the coda of some loanwords.

N-trigger / Nasal mutation
When an "n" connects with some consonants, the consonants change and the "n" is deleted:

I-trigger / Yod mutation
When "I" is behind of any consonant it causes the next vowel to palatalize

When that yod appears in alveolar/siblant consonants (ts, dz, s & n) it causes them to convert to palatal

Also when an I collides with a suffix that either has a yod as first consonant or has no onset. the I converts into a yod, either replacing the yod in the suffix or becoming one (ei-V>eyV, i-V>yV, i-yV>yV, ei-yV>eyV).

Writing System
The writing systems are really complex

Ofuro system
The Ofuro system is a featural abugida made by the great Khau Sairun

The abugida has 5 symbols describing the 5 places of articulation that each consonant has

then the "qidawa" and "ñotawa" are used to indicate if the obstruent is normal, voiced or aspirated.

In modern Ofurian native orthography, there are 2 "ñotawa" to distinguish nasal sonorants from voiced plosives and both are fused into the symbols, for the "qidawa", it remains as a separate symbol

In Ancient Ofurian native orthography there is a symbol for denoting aproximants, which looks like a breve, in modern times, it's replaced with the aproximant stick mark, which is fused again to the aproximant symbols

for n, it was used an approximant little T, but today, the little T glyph alredy indicates a n coda.

The vowels also descend from a reduced set of vowels, only I and U had their glyphs, today, the symbols for E and O are rotated versions of the corresponding high vowel and the A is just a point, although it's infered through context when it makes a sylable with another consonant, the E, I, O and U fuse together in EI and OU, They are also palatalized versions of all the vowels and the point is puted with the I and U to mean AI and AU.

to make other than A sylables, you put the vowel little in an specific spot depending on the consonant and the directionality

The directionality changes with every line, the first is always downwards and the next is upwards and so on, the text is written left to rigth, top to bottom, spaces and space vowels are marked breaking the line and there is today a beggining and end symbols, in ancient times there was only an ending symbol, creating more fluid directionality.

Verbs
The verb system is somewhat complex and some inflexions can be skipped through context

Moods & Aspect
The dictionary form of the verb is the infinitive, which has the -ru suffix.

Removing the suffix makes the Amodal or Normal.

The Continious or Repetitive mood is done reduplicating the last stem sylable, adding voice to them

The Habitual mood can be made with the Repetitive Stem + Infinitive

Polarity
Polarity is marked with a suffix

Tense & Person
For tense there is only one distinction, Past vs Non-past. Past is marked using the suffix wa. For person, you can mark both the subject and the object. there is also only 2 persons (I & You/It/(S)He)

Nouns
Nouns are normally Unmarked for the singular and Marked for the plural with -n, or -an, also usually nouns use article to distinguish them from verbs

Syntax
Ofuro, normally is an SVO language, but in intransitive sentences, the "Actor" might be analysed as the Subject if it has volition, or as the Object if it not has that volition. F. ex:

い夢る "ishoru"　He puts himself to sleep. vs　夢りる　"qhoriru" He doze off

Also, Because Ofuro lacks 3rd person, when the 2 arguments aren't the speaker itself, it's complicated to know which is doing what to whom, for this reason, Ofuro has Argument Diectivity: When an argument is in the 2nd person and refers to words said before in the sentence, you can put an article before the words, this article acts like a pointer that, if incorporated in the subject or object slots on the verb, it can make the connection much more clear

火油 火る 火　(jighunu jiru ji) fire-oil fire-INF fire, the gasoline rose the fire > つん 火油 か 火 つん火るりか (cun jighunu ka ji cunjirurika) INDPA fire-oil DEMSA fire INDPA-fire-INF-(2PS.OBJ-DEMSA)

Also in triargumentative statements the subject is as expected but the indirect object is treated as the actual object and the direct object can go before or after the Subject and "Object"
