Introduction[]

It has an estimate of over 11 Million native speakers and 14,982 learners. The language evolved from Old Vharanazhdzjuli-Khalosvhenćavhanos around 700 years ago.

The first recordings of the Vharanian language were traced back to 504 BCE in Astrakhan, Russia. That being a poem titled "V́khjiđòrdó t’Âlđanĥňođis" (meaning "Winds of Fire"), by poet Áuźléđań Kalhúsos. The language made its way down over to Kherveinar Valosnkavolis in the Caucasus in around 1794.

Grammar[]

Alignment[]

The language follows the OSV (Object-Subject-Verb) order, meaning a sentence like "Birds can fly" ("Ňésv âđà ój́ń") would be turned into "Fly birds can" ("Ój́ń ňésv âđà"). Words like "t’" ("of") or "kho’" ("the") have no exception to this.

Singular and Plural[]

Plurals in V-K vary on what the last letter of a word was.

For words ending with "v", you must replace the "v" with "źóh". For example, "T’Khij Ňésv" ("My Bird") would become "T’Khij Ňésźóh" ("My Birds")

For words ending in "kh", you must replace the "kh" with "sov". For example, "T’Khij Èmanekh" ("My Plant") would become "T'Khij Èmanesov" ("My Plants")

For any other words aside words ending with "v" or "kh", add on "svà". For example, "Kho’ Káv́uc" ("The Dog") becomes "Kho’ Káv́usvà" ("The Dogs")
