Language Rules | Show 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. |
