Wexelgwe

General information
This conlang is for the August Challenge, not really for anything else...lol

Just to clarify: because this language does not have any "normal" or bilabial sounds (/p/ /b/ /m/ /t/ /d/), it is an alien language from the planet Kepler 186-f which is the only other planet that might be able to support life. So, none of the basic sounds that most languages have.

Phonotactics
The following are the syllable structures (v being vowel, c being consonant):

ccvcc, cvc, cv, vc, vcc, ccv, vvc, & cvv

The basic syllable structure is as follows: (C)(V)(C)V(C)(V)(C), the parentheses making the "c" or "v" optional.

All combinations that can be made with the consonants are permissable; including, but not limited to:

xr, rx, kl, lk, xw, xq, xxx, qgw, ngkq, xxxx, etc. The list goes on. However, most of these consonant clusters (ie xxx, xxxx, xq, kq, gk, qg, gx, gkq) make the / ʜ/ sound.

Vowel clusters include, but are not limited to:

aa, oi, ei, io, ie, etc. Although there are not as many vowel clusters in the vocabulary of Wexelgwe, it is something to still bear in mind.

Nouns/Pronouns
Nouns (and pronouns), as stated above in the fanciful chart, are declined according to case and number. To decline nouns/pronouns according to case, you would add the following suffixes (w/o taking away) to that specific noun (or pronoun):

Verbs
To conjugate verbs, all you have to do is change the last two letters, according to person:

Syntax
Word order: VSO, although it keeps the same grammar as Modern English, with only the personal conjugations.

In Wexelgwe, it is alright to have preposition stranding occur, because the grammar of this language is very lenient (and the grammar nazis of Wexelgwe will not come and kill you).

The

Adjectives
The adjectives, as in Spanish, come after the noun they are modifying. Simple enough.

Definite/Indefinite Articles
There is only one of each of these, because there is no gender:

Tense Verbs, as stated above, also conjugate according to tense. To add tense, you must add an infix to the middle, in any spot (preferably between syllables), of the verb. So, if I wanted to conjugate "I run" to "I will run" or "I ran" then, the verb "wnyorlraxrewaw" (to run) will be conjugated according to 1st person, singular, and then to tense, in this case the verb will have the ending "-yk" and will have the correct infix, following these guidelines:

Singular/Dual/Trial/Paucal/Plural
To denote something as more than one, you will "agglutinate" the corresponding prefix to the noun:

There is no prefix for the singular form of a noun (or gerund/supine form verbs) Simple enough; you don't even have to worry about conjugating the verb to correspond with the amount of the noun there is; rather, you conjugate it as stated above (person & tense).

Gerund
To make a verb in gerund form (adding -ing in english), you add a prefix: "qie-". For instance, if you already had a verb in gerund form, you would make the prefix "qie-" into an infix, and add the "wyx-" prefix before the gerund form (now infix). This is one of the main reasons this language is agglutinative.

For example:

Wnyorlraxrewaw would become: qiewnyorlraxrewaw if it meant "running". Then, to make it plural you would make it: wyxqiewnyorlraxrewaw. To put it in a sentence, let's say "I am running," you would take out the "am" and make it "running I" then translate it to be: "Qiewnyorlraxrewyk ne."

Example text
I'll have this up in a little bit, and it will be the two articles. For right now, it shall have the (hopefully) correct word order, yet still in English, just to be helpful in the long run (for me, of course).

1 Article.

Born all human beings free and equal in dignity and rights. Endowed with reason and should act they towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.

2 Article.

Entitled everyone to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, distinction of any kind without, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political, or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, distinction shall not-made-be on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory person belongs to which, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or any other limitation of sovereignty other.
