Grigiva Desten

Introduction
Grigiva Desten (After modernization), Grigiva Destán (before getting rid of diacritics) or simply (Grigiva) is one of the daughter of the Proto-Grelerian language. In reality it's a huge redesign of Proto-Grelerian.

It tends to have a lot of a posteriori words and similarities with English and Bahasa Indonesia.

Changes from Proto-Grelerian

 * 1) Got rid of long vowels
 * 2) Added alveolar affricates
 * 3) Added two vowels: Schwa and [ɔ]
 * 4) From Fusional/Analytic to Fusional only
 * 5) Added three consonants
 * 6) From (C)V:(C) to (C)(C)V(C)(C) syllabic structure.
 * 7) Removed case on articles.
 * 8) Redesigned pronouns, case marking, etc..

Pronouns

 * Instrumental has the same function as: "with ..."," thanks to ...", "accompanied by ...", and "using ..."
 * Use third person for demonstrative determiner or demonstrative pronoun.

Regular verb conjugations
Just replace -am ending for conjugations


 * Passive voice: add prefix hi(n)-

"To be" verb drop

 * The verb "to be" to present unit or imperfect would drop, it looks like to the Bahasa Indonesia feature.

Interrogative pronouns
Why do you have eaten my apples ? = Gau jao emblumau ikis daplet ?

Relative clause
To build a relative clause, we use the pronoun "kue" that is put at the start of the relative clause. The relative clause is after the main clause, so it will make: Main clause "kue" Relative clause.

Conjunctive clauses
A clause is said to be conjunctive when it begins with a subordinating conjunction (In French : que, dès que, pendant que, quand, parce que, puisque, bien que, quoique,  si, même si, etc)
 * SUBJECT - A conjunctive clause can be the subject of a verb. It then functions as a nominative name. The particle is "kay"
 * COMPLETIVE - Conjunctive clauses are found as a complement to modality verbs; They are found after a modality verb. The particle is "kue" (Complete the verb as a COD) / "kuen" (to complete the verb as a COI)
 * CIRCUMSTANCIAL
 * Time (when, until, while, before, since) = The respective particles are = hono, sempa, keti, sebe, seja
 * Goal (Same as supine) (for, to + ing, etc) = The particle is = unta
 * Supine / Coordinate Circumstancial clause, e.g I'm here to eat apples; to is the particle we're talking about, and the verb eat is in infinite form like english and the particle is before the verb in infinite form.
 * Consequence = The particle is = kala
 * Concession (even if, though) = The particle is = jiki
 * Cause (because) = The particle is = lanas
 * Comparison (as, like) = The particle is = peli
 * Assumption = The particle is = sumi

1. From BLR "Seagulls (Stop It Now)"
- One day, I was walking, and I saw this big log. Then, I rolled the log over and underneath was a tiny little stick. And I was like, "That log had a child!"

Sem heri, kio śumo, en kio snumau đio raya źise. Kedian kio klamau đio źise en đio cumo dipa ha kecim pici tenke. En kio evumo: "đio raya jumau ha ante! "
