Shawafian

Shawafian, otherwise known as H'tkut'k'asla Saslah' ([ʔʼtʰkɯ̥tʼkʼæ̥ɬɑ̥ sɑ̥ɬɑ̥ʔ]) by its native speakers, is a language isolate spoken by the creatures of Shawaf, a civilization that was in very close proximity to the Empire of Yageeb.

The language has a wide range of moods/aspects, unlike most other Pencilcosmos languages.

Classification and Dialects
Shawafian, as it is in relatively close proximity to The Pencil Language, has inherited some agglutinative traits of The Pencil Language, including nesting subordinate clauses within the same word and sometimes gluing adjectives onto their head.

Consonants
(?): This sound is a glottal ejective, which humans are unable to pronounce.

Phonotactics

 * The glottal ejective can never come before a vowel.
 * The glottal ejective becomes a glottal stop word-finally.

Sound Changes

 * Unaspirated consonants tend to get aspirated when close to the glottal ejective
 * q > χ (unpredictable)
 * kq > kx or χ

Writing System
Shawafian uses a modified version of the Pencil Language script.

Nouns
Nouns have 2 cases: nominative and accusative, and 2 marked numbers: plural and collective. Other cases are formed using particles and combinations of those. Inclusive variants of pronouns end with -h't, which was the old collective case. If a noun is marked

Verbs
Adverbs are formed by gluing the adjective onto the verb.
