Mithú

Miþú is a fictional proto-language spoken in the golden isles by the ancient Mithoans. And from the descendants of the current inhabitants of the windy land (þa rwi-rwi þú), the golden isles (ná xínga þú) and the east coast of the mountain land (þa šahú þú).

They are beings with yellowish skin, 4 fingers and two head breathers (zwá), so they have a amplified sense of smell. They are obsessed with

economical gains, but also spirituality and have very strict customs in terms of family and separation of genders. Male children may never be raised by women and vice versa and marriage between men and women is looked down upon as immoral. So for them making children is all about religion not intimacy.

They are named after the word whos function they take ex. Subjectve = It's clear that this year we arent going on a trip. The italised part is there instead of the subject and anwsers the question What's clear? and the anwser is not going. The dependent sentence must be sepparetde by a comma Si+,Sd.

Nouns

To show what the object is the word 'i is added, beffore the possesive pronoun, unless it already has a objective article. ('i lawi ňáhu)

If multiple "nouns" are next to each other, only the last one is a noun and the rest are adjectives (þa łàí ňahu = the water house/the wet house)
