Grammar
Lusom has five vowels, 21 consonants, and 12 accented letters. It is slightly fusional, referring to these instances as Emplor Words. It uses a SOV order and has an accusative morphosyntactic alignment.

This language has three genders (masculine, feminine and neutral), two numbers (singular and plural) and four cases (nominative, genitive, accusative and lative).

Any preposition or other word follows the verb and goes at the end of a sentence.

Emplor Words:

There are 3 tenses (present, past, and future). These tenses are marked by Tán (past), Táss (present) and the lack of a word for future; which follows the object in SOV, if one in grammar. Tenses, though, are only marked by physical actions, not by feelings or anything else. Ex: I love you is Ich ho'o lavare, not Ich ho'o táss lavare.

If there is no object, then the Emplor Words follows the subject. Though the markings of tenses are normally avoided in songs and others of the likewise, as songs are believed to be infinite and not restricted to time. Though if marked, it is to put emphasis on a time.

Nouns:
Noun placement in Lusom follows the SOV format. Normally, unless location is used, the subject goes in the beginning of a sentence, the and immediate adjectives object follows. After this the Emplor(tense word) follows before the verb.

In Lusom definiteness is usually marked by the selection of determiner. Certain determiners, such as a/an, many, any, either, and some typically mark an NP as indefinite. Others, including the, this, every, and both mark the NP as definite.

Verbs:
Verb placement in Lusom follows the SOV format. Normally, unless an Emplor is used, the verb always follows behind the object. The ordering of verbs behind one another follows exactly as how it would be in English.
