Teru (Root words)
Teru are the basic root words they; can hold meaning and be used as nouns, verb roots, adjectives, and adverbs. A teru like nanka for example means food or eat. By default it means food, however, if it is preceded by a tense yanru (sa/po/fu) it becomes a verb and means eat/ate/will eat depending on which you used.
Plural
To form plural words you simply add the word "nan" before the word.
Tekan | English |
---|---|
panana | banana |
nan panana | bananas |
ren | person |
nan ren | people |
Number
To form number forms or to make dual forms you simply place the number before the teru that you wish to modfy you don't have to add the plural maker.
Tekan | English |
---|---|
ren | person |
na ren | two people |
ti panana | three bananas |
fo wotu | four dogs |
Gender
There are 4 possible genders in Tekan, "i" male, "o" female, "yo" middle sex, and neutral. By default all words in Tekan are neutral; in order to form a gendered word you simply place the gender word before the word you wish to gender.
Tekan | English |
---|---|
ren | person |
i ren | man |
o ren | woman |
yo ren | hermaphrodite person |
wotu | dog |
i wotu | male dog |
o wotu | female |
yo wotu | hermaphrodite dog |
Cases
There are five cases in Tekan these being "u" nominative, "e" accusative, "to" genitive, "uto" nominative-genitive, "eto" accusative-genitive "ni" dative, and "yu" vocative. To apply a case to teru(noun) or stack you place the case word preceding it.
Language | Word | Sentence |
---|---|---|
Tekan | u wotu | sa nanka u wotu. |
English | the dog | The dog eats. |
Tekan | e panana | po nanka u saru e panana. |
English | the banana | The monkey ate the banana. |
Tekan | ni pen | po ata u ita ni ota e pen. |
English | the pen | He gave her the pen. |
Tekan | uto ita wotu | po nanka uto ita wotu e nanko. |
English | His Dog | His Dog ate a mango. |
Tekan | eto ota nanko | po nanka u wotu eto ota nanko. |
English | her mango | The dog ate her mango. |
Tekan | yu ke | yu ke! |
English | Hey you | Hey you! |
Stacks
Stacks are a feature that Tekan uses to form meaning that it does not have words for. There are two types of stacks, noun stacks and verb stacks; both function the same way and are made similary. Noun stacks start with a case yanru such as "u" nominative, "e" accusative, "to" genitive, "uto" nominative-genitive, "eto" accusative-genitive "ni" dative, and "yu" vocative, and end when you either hit another case or the end of a sentence. Verb stacks start with a tense yanru such as "sa" present-tense, "po" past-tense, and "fu" future tense, and end when it hits a case or the end of the sentence. Stacks are treated as if they were single words even though they more of a list of words that are interpreted to form a new meaning.

fu ra nanka osi | I will desire to eat |
sa iki osi | Desire to be big |
u safe wotu | The white dog |
e yelo ara panana | The yellow green banana |

Yanru (Function words)
Yanru are function words that may hold meaning like teru and function as they do or a yanru may hold grammarical meaning such as tenses, person, pronouns, numbers among other things. Yanru are usually one syllable and precede the word that they operate on such as "nen panana" which means "bananas", "panana" by default simply refers to one, the "nen" makes it plural.
