Writing System

Nouns
Nouns decline based on gender and case. There are three grammatical genders, masculine, feminine, and neuter. Neuter is used rarely in Anstlin. The neutral form of a noun is its masculine form. The genders are used depending on the genders they associate with. The genders change nouns with a vowel shift, but only the first vowel in the noun changes. Masculine nouns stay the same, feminine backs the vowel sound, and neuter fronts the vowel sound. If the noun is a compound word, then both or all nouns in that compound word do vowel shifts.

Anstlin has four grammatical cases being nominative, accusative, genitive, and dative. The language has definite and indefinite articles as well, which decline based on gender and case. The noun quantities are singular and plural. Declensions are shown below.

Adjectives
Adjectives in Anstlin decline based on the noun's ending. However, gender doesn't apply.

Verbs
Verbs do have an infinitive "-yh." They also have conjugation based on the grammatical person.

Tense
Verbs are changed by vowel shifts and endings, just like nouns. Tenses change by vowel shifts, backing the vowel is the past, and fronting it is the future. Again, only the first vowel changes.

Aspect
Verbs also conjugate based on aspect and this is done with fusional endings. Verbs also have a participle and a gerund. The past participle is -oþ, and the present participle is -ilm.
