During the eras before their disappearance, the Icefolk were not willing to teach their written language to humans due to the unpleasant history so no translations of Icefolk texts had survived.

*lots of consonants and some phonation features based on their gorilla/bear physiology (they wouldn't have liked this classification)
*verb-based
*noun infixes from different roots than independent noun-verbs
*diliteral radicals
**when infixing, the second consonant may be modified to convey grammatical information
 


Language as Religion: In sacred language, every commendable leader should receive their own case symbolizing their deeds and derived from their name. Text is history but history may be changed.
Script: logographic-syllabary mix
*Separate graphemes for:

**broken C<sub>1</sub>(infix)C<sub>2</sub>
**Differences in vowels matter but glyphs of C<sub>1</sub>V<sub>1</sub> and C<sub>1</sub>V<sub>2</sub> or C<sub>2a</sub>V and C<sub>2b</sub>V may have little in common

Icefolk

The Icefolk sacred literature language Ghitarqapö (?) was an infixing one and of different origin than their spoken language Thernakh (which had a cursive Bakurt script). During the eras before their disappearance, the Icefolk were not willing to teach their written language to humans due to the unpleasant history so no translations of Icefolk texts had survived. Apparently, the teaching of Ghitarqapö was intensively oral since no Ghitarqapö pages with Bakurt transcription have been found.

What Spellmaster Guenkue discovered during her expedition to Scriptorium:

  • lots of consonants and some phonation features based on their gorilla/bear physiology (they wouldn't have liked this classification)
  • verb-based
  • noun infixes from different roots than independent noun-verbs
  • diliteral radicals
    • when infixing, the second consonant may be modified to convey grammatical information


Script: logographic-syllabary mix

  • Separate graphemes for:
    • base C1C2
    • broken C1(infix)C2
    • Differences in vowels matter but glyphs of C1V1 and C1V2 or C2aV and C2bV may have little in common
  • Calligraphic variation (monumental/frozen/hand-written)
    • The Hall of Prayers has an icicle roof which from some angles can be read as sacred poems
