The '''Azzanic languages''' are a family of consonantal-root languages spoken on the Wiebian subcontinent, as well as on a set of islands off of the North Wiebian Sea, including [[Tergetian]], [[ʔAškāsīnių]] (''čegānų ʔAškāsīnių'') and [[Rozzino]]. They are descended from '''Proto-Azzanic''' ('''PAzz''').
==Nouns==
*''sóol'' = house, home
*''tráat' '' = flower
*''bíne' '' = water
*''sreg'' = words, speech, language
*''aak'é'e'' = sky
*''laá'' = light
*''kár'' = flatbread
*''nerás'' = coffee
*''laánt'ob'' = coconut milk
*''jeneé'' = nut butter or coconut oil
*'''ésjol'' = but
==Adjectives==
*''dro' '' = low
*''adítool'' = high
*''so-'' = good
*'' 'áa'weh'' = bad


==Origin==
==Verbs==
The Azzanic languages bear the name of the legendary hero Azàn, reconstructed as {{recon|{{sc|ʔAzzānum}}}}, to whom Tergetians and ʔAškāsīnians trace their descent.
*''-dá'' = 'to know'
 
*''-so'' = 'good'
==Phylogeny==
*''-goól'' = 'to fly'
*Western Azzanic
*''-le'' = 'to say'
**[[Rozzino]]
*''-drój'' = 'to love'
**[[ʔAškāsīnių]]
*''-béh'' = 'free'
*Eastern Azzanic
**[[Tergetian]]
 
==Phonology==
===Consonants===
Proto-Azzanic is reconstructed with 29 consonants.

===Suprasegmentals===
Stress fell on the first heavy (CVː or CVC) syllable (the last syllable was disregarded); in the absence of a heavy syllable, the stress fell on the first syllable.
 
===Phonotactics===
 
==Morphology==
Proto-Azzanic had Philippine alignment as does Rozzino and ʔAškāsīnių. Verb-initial clauses were the norm as in Semitic and Austronesian languages. [[Primitive Tergetian]] had changed this alignment into a nominative-accusative system.
===Nouns===
Nouns and adjectives declined for three cases: direct, indirect and genitive.

|-

|}
 
===Verbs===
Verbs had an extensive trigger system marked by various binyanim. Verbs also inflected for the tense and subject (the argument in the direct case).
 
===Numerals===
===Derivational morphology===
==Syntax==
There was an emphatic clitic ''=is'' added to verbs.
