Sicaron

Sicaron is intended to be a permutated form of English, spoken in the fictitious Republic of Sicaro, in Slayermoon's novel in progress Freedom America, which takes place in a future North America, long after the United States of America has ceased to exist. Sicaro is a nation located in the northwestern former United States, with Seattle as its national capital, and includes southern present-day British Columbia. Sicarons are a peace-loving and self-reliant lot who work hard to maintain not only a sustainable lifestyle for themselves but also to keep other nations from getting in the way of those aims.

Orthography
Although derived from American English, Sicaron is written in the Cyrillic script, owing to Sicaro’s strong affinity for Russia. The Sicaron alphabet consists of ## letters, named and pronounced as follows:
 * А а — аь [a] like a in taco

Phonology
Sicaron words usually follow a regular path of transition in phonemic shifts from English, but there are a few exceptions.

Nouns
Sicaron nouns are declined only by number, as are their English counterparts, and have natural gender. While English has four genders — epicene (with they as its 3rd-singular pronoun), feminine (pronoun: she), masculine (pronoun: he) and neuter (pronoun: it) — Sicaron has only two of these: the epicene and the neuter.

Adjectives
Adjectives are, for all practical purposes, treated as nouns in Sicaron. (Japanese treats them as verbs.)

Adverbs
Adverbs may be derived from adjectives or may have independent forms.

Verbs
Verbs aren’t conjugated according to tense, instead using special modal verbs to these ends.
