Koinean is a brief sketchlang, attempting to take the growing non-configurationality of vernacular Korean and extend it to the level of Koiné Greek. While Ancient Greek could match distant words by Case/Number/Gender, Koinean matches by Case/Honor/Class. The verb inflectional structure is as big as a λυω chart. It is written in the polytonic Greek alphabet, and requires the extension of Unicode by combining characters to write upsilons with iota subscript. It is also meant as an instructional aide to Korean in learning NT Greek.
