Grammar
Serqar is an agglutinative language. It uses a high number of affixes to express its information. Articles doesn't exist in the language. The inflections are always the same, no matter if it is 1st, 2nd or 3rd person.

Rule: Suffixes always replace the last letter of the word, unless it starts with a vowel.

Nouns - Numbers
Serqar uses the normal singular and plural numbers, but also uses the very rare "Distributive plural" that tend to view individuals as independent. Numbers work the same way in Number-words.

Nouns - Genders
4 different genders are used. Instead of using affixes, letters in affixes are replaced with either a vowel or consonant. The first letter is always replaced. If an affix starts with a consonant, it is replaced with a vowel, and if it starts with a vowel it is replaced with a consonant.

Nouns - Tenses
Because only one affix can be put on every word, noun tenses come in use when verbs use mood. Tense on nouns generally do the same thing as tenses on verbs.

Adjectives - Cases
Cases on adjectives are used to describe the "history" of the statement.

Word order
Serqar can both be classified as Verb-Subject-Object and Verb-Object-Subject. It only has one sort of word clause where it is divided into 3 Sub-clauses that contains specific word classes. Up to 3 words can be put in every sub-clause. And-words (eg. "geese and ducks") are also put at the absolute end, where a comma is put between them (eg. geese, ducks).

Sub-Clause 1 (Verb), Sub-Clause 2 (Noun, proper noun, adjective, pronoun, adverb), Sub-Clause 3 (Noun, proper noun, number, preposition, particle)

The 3 words are put in order in the sub-clauses. When 3 words have been put in a sub-clause and more words are put in a sentence, a comma is put and the clause-process are continued. For example:

The man took his gun and shot them all

TOOK-SHOT-MAN-GUN-HIS-THEM-ALL-AND

Punctuation
Comma only appears as described above. Full stop/period is put at the end of a clause. Question mark at question. Exclamation mark at a strong statement.
