When the foxian inhabitants thought that their old language was very difficult. Because of that, the forgeiners and the foxian cildren could not learn the language easily. They decided to create a new language borrowing european and slavic words and teach it to the newborns and when the all the adults who colud speak the old foxian died, the reformed foxian became the only official language in foxia. The rules are quite easier but without losing the nature of foxian culture. Which says the language must be complicated itself but not necesarily difficult.

The articles can also be used with declensions but these do not affect the article. what I mean could be explained with these examples with declensions:
- me son to lodówki: I was in the bridge
- be havass listemu ta doctorá: you have to listen the doctor
