Language Rules and Explanations: 1. **Base Words**: - The foundation of the language is built upon base words. - Each base word represents a single concept or action. - Example: "keh" (come), "gi" (liquid), "mor" (stay). 2. **First-Layer Words**: - Created by logically combining two base words. - Each first-layer word has a single English meaning. - Example: "foedar" (tool, Literal: device + color). 3. **Second-Layer Words**: - Formed by combining a first-layer word with another base or first-layer word. - The connector "ha" is used between layers for clarity. - Example: "foedarhahmorfar" (implement, Literal: tool ha refuge). 4. **Grammar**: - Sentence structure generally follows Subject-Verb-Object order. - Questions are formed by adding "masandas?" at the end of a sentence. - Exclamations use "Yoko!" at the end. - Optional statement marker: "hoshindes." 5. **Pronunciation Rules**: - Avoid vowel-vowel clashes by inserting an "n" between vowels if the next character starts with a "y". - Example: "kehgie yan" becomes "kehgie nyan". 6. **Word Categories**: - Words are categorized into Nouns, Adjectives, Verbs, and Adverbs. - Each word belongs to a single category, with first-layer and second-layer distinctions. 7. **Tense Suffixes**: - "yon" for past, "yan" for present, "yen" for future. - Example: "kehyon" (came), "kehhayan" (coming), "kehhayen" (will come). 8. **Common Phrases**: - Greetings: "Nya, kehmas?" (Hello, how are you?). - Gratitude: "Nakai mas." (Thank you.) - Farewell: "Dya kehmas!" (See you later!) These rules form the foundation for creating, understanding, and using the language effectively.
