Karakin

General information
Karakin (Anhutja) the the Language of the Karakins, a spices/sub-spices of egg laying Jamesianoids called Karakin (scientific name Shatu Karakinha). It is the ansestor language of Korkin, Karutu , Kotalosian , Chyukitu and Yukitu. The Karakins migrated to the Tarminian Basin from the south when the Great Continent was in two pieces.

Phonology
Karakin Phonology is interesting because of the odd mixture of unpaired voiced and unvoiced fricative and affricative consonants. It has only 5 vowels. Most Karakin languages that are round during the events of Xerxesian Chronicles have lost all there Velar, lateral, bilabial fricatives and their Palatal nasals and plosives. The language, unlike its decedents doesn’t have long vowels or diphthongs.

Alphabet
The Karakins did not have a writing system, they had no writing whats so ever and most of their written word was done by foreigners in their own script (Hanpeimu, Nekoshijwo or Ännatroda). The native speakers of Karakin draw pictures and petroglyphs to show their ideas.

Phonotactics
The Syllable structure of Karakin is (C)(y,w)V(n,m,ng,p,t,k) the final plosives are voiced when they come before a voiced constant and become affricates when they come before fricative consonants.

Dialects
There is 4 main different dialects of Karakin. They are the Kota-iwadyuk, the Kota-lxyemzu , the Kota-movavip and the Kota-kakhugying. These dialects are generally neutrally intelligible to each-other before the Dinobuster asteroid(Named so because it was around the some size as the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs) slammed into Jamesos 626 and separated the main groups causing the survivors to evolve into the Korkins, Kotalosians , Chyukitu and Karutu. The dialects tend pronounce certain phonemes in different ways, for example /θ/ is pronounced as /ð̠/ by Kota-movavip and Kota-kakhugying and as /s/ by Kota-iwadyuk. /ts/ Is often voiced to /dz/ by Kota-kakhuvip and /d͡ʑ/ is pronounced as /dz/ by Kota-iwadyuk speakers.

Nouns
Like all Jamesic Languages, all words are nouns by default they can have suffixes to incate if they are possesing an object or are an object of the sentance or the verb of the sentance. The possesive suffix is -zo.

Nouns can be made into verbs by adding -uku to the end of it. Uku is the basic neutral and tone neutral relation verb from. All the Verb forms are, This is similar to the request from of verbs in Korkin but in Karakin their the Verb froms that only incate the relationship and weather and their tone. Where they’re annoyed/angry/demaning or happy/exited. These words by themselves are describe different emotions and this is true for other Karakin languages. The negative from of a word is always u-.

Syntax
The Word order of Karakin is Subject-Object-verb, the possessive case words come after the words they posses eg, lxunhu dazo khwive rulizo.(My cute girl(friend) is sleeping.) Reasons and ifs go before and not after eg. Da hin Mijazo, da hinzuki.(I eat because I was hungry / I need food, I eat). And Dje-ut bithu, bithu nak-uku. (Fish on land, fish die./ If fish is on land , it will die.) The Locative case goes first in a sentence.

Grouping nouns together
Karakin uses kha to group nouns together. Kha is prefixed to the first word in the group and suffixed to the last word eg,'' Kha-rhwan hyawa Tjek-kha Dazo zhyam-dja. (I patted my dog, cat and horse).''

Cases
There are three cases in Karakin, locative , possessive and verb. The possessive case is the suffix -zo, and the possessive word comes after the object it possesses. It can also be used to make adjectives. The Locative case -ut, which is use to indicate the location of an event or the time of an event eg. Nhidme-ut Mima-ut da. (I'm in my house at night). And the verb case which is already explained in the Verb part of the article.
