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 (tha rwi-rwi þú), the golden isles (ná xínga þú) and the east coast of the mountain land (tha 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.

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)

Reduplication is also used to signify some higher importance or more specific meaning(łàí-łàí = water-water/sea)(wa-wa = food-food/meal)
