Xynder

Yet another descendant language from Natraden. The grammar has remained fairly intact along with the genders and the phonology has been simplified.

Phonology
The basic phonology:

Rules

 * tsz is always written as cz
 * ts is always written as c

Case Marking
Case marking is defined with sets of suffixes:

Word Order
The order has remained fairly the same:
 * 1) [Reflexive Pronoun)
 * 2) Subject
 * 3) Indirect Object
 * 4) Object
 * 5) (Auxiliary) Verb
 * 6) Adverb
 * 7) Other Information
 * 8) Participle
 * 9) Verb/Participle (when auxiliary verb is used)

Verb Conjugation
All verbs end in el and most are regular. There are several irregular verbs but the quantity does not compare to the regular verbs. There is only one irregular verb and dropping the pronoun is common in informal speech.

To Be
This is the most irregular verb that exists.

Dropping 'E'
E means is and sometimes is omitted. If a noun is used in accusative case alone, the it is is implied:

Telefonaj.

It is a telephone.

You may use the nominative case with it but it is less common than using e

O Telefonaj is less common than Telefonaj e and Telefonaj but is still used.

It is a telephone.

The use of O Telefonaj e is considered to be formal; in fact, no omission occurs in formal writing and speech.

Regular Verbs
Regular verbs will conjugated as follows:

Negation
To negate a verb you add the prefix Nez-:

Nezgater

I didn't go

Nezza!

I'm not!

Passive Verbs
To make a verb passive you use the past participle with the auxiliary verb to be

Sza svarbelt

I was killed

Conditional Verbs
Conditional verbs are formed with the auxiliary verb fjötel (to will) and the past participle. The difference between this the using the future tense is that the auxiliary verb is that the auxiliary verb is used in the past tense.

Fjöt gatelt

I will go

Fjöter gatelt

I would go

Auxiliary Verbs in Future Tense
According to word order, there will be two participles proceeding one another at the end of a sentence.

Fjöt gatelt önelt

I will be gone

Reflexive Verbs
Infinitive reflexive verbs end in elde but conjugate exactly the same as normal verbs. However, pronouns get dropped (if they weren't already) and are replaced with relfexive pronouns. Otherwise the subject gets moved.

Za öpne

He hit himself

Za  s'Ester öfne <- Subject

The restaurant opened (itself)

Gerund
Gerunds are formed by conjugating the verb with en:

Kola-Denken

Cola Drinking

As for making adjectives, you take away the l from the infinite:

magikel to enchant

magike enchanting

magikne enchanted

Pluralisation
This makes use the the suffix -(e)sz

Slep (Book) -> Slepesz (Books)

Telefon (Telephone) -> Telefonesz (Telephones)

Articles
There is no indefinite article but there is a definite article for each gender and other words that behave as articles.

Contractions
There are words such as ecê/a/o which are contractions of et sê/a/o (in/on the). But with contractions, you write:

ec'Eerag

on the Earth

Adjectives
Adjectives always end in e and decline just like nouns. Take the word s'Eer (the Earth) and skeje (blue):

The article is acutally used on it's own when describing a noun:

 Sa skeje Eer.

The blue Earth

A sa skeje j Eer aj e

It is the blue Earth

Comparative Adjectives
This uses the particle mo placed before the adjective to make it comparative. Translates to "more" in English.

S'Eer mo skeje e.

The Earth is more blue.

Superlative Adjective
This time you actually use the particle momo meaning "more-more" or "most".

S'Eer momo skeje e.

The Earth is the most blue.

Possession
Possession is often shown with declension. To show something possesses another, you put the possessor with the declension after the noun.

Eer Jes

My Earth

Alternatively, one can say of.

Eer w Mak

My Earth

(Earth of Me-DAT)
