The '''Skyrdagor''' language (native name '''Skyrdegan gjalyn''' {{IPA|[ɧu͡ɯ˞deːɜ̯n ɟ͡ʝæ͡ɑɮɯn]}}) is the koiné language of ''Greater Skyrdagor'' ({{IPA|[ɧu͡ɯ˞dɒː˞]}}, in Sky. ''gilyjlydh Skyrdagor'' {{IPA|[ɟ͡ʝiɮʊɪ̯ɮɘː ɧu͡ɯ˞dɒː˞]}}), a plurinational area on the planet of [[Verse:Calémere|Calémere]], in northeastern Márusúturon, once part of the Skyrdagor Empire. It is the official language in all countries of this area, as well as a minority language in Brono (''Baravn''), Qualdomailor (''Kaldhyvmal''), and the [[Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition|Inquisition]] (''Snevanemfocsiv''). It is one - and by far the most spoken - of the [[Fargulyn languages]]. | The '''Skyrdagor''' language (native name '''Skyrdegan gjalyn''' {{IPA|[ɧu͡ɯ˞deːɜ̯n ɟ͡ʝæ͡ɑɮɯn]}}) is the koiné language of ''Greater Skyrdagor'' ({{IPA|[ɧu͡ɯ˞dɒː˞]}}, in Sky.

Most Skyrdagor nouns only inflect for two cases (absolutive and ergative), with no number marking on the nouns themselves; generic quantifiers or numbers with classifiers are used instead. Note, though, that some irregular nouns have a third, fossilized, oblique form (used with most adpositions), and there are some apparent singular/plural pairs, which are however usually analyzed as distinct lemmas.<br/>Each noun is defined as naturally animate or inanimate, something that has a notable effect on the whole grammar – inanimate nouns do not exist in the ergative case. | Most Skyrdagor nouns only inflect for two cases (absolutive and ergative), with no number marking on the nouns themselves; generic quantifiers or numbers with classifiers are used instead.

Some Skyrdagor nouns feature obligatory possession, for example the stem ''bajn-'' (mother) cannot occur without a possessive suffix, i.e. ''bajnym'' "my mother", ''bajnth'' "your (<small>M</small>) mother". Most are common stems, such as ''fon-'' (father), ''szyks-'' (leg), ''ljav-'' (head) | Some Skyrdagor nouns feature obligatory possession, for example the stem ''bajn-'' (mother) cannot occur without a possessive suffix, i.e. ''bajnym'' "my mother", ''bajnth'' "your (<small>M</small>) mother".

The only inflection in contemporary Skyrdagor – the ergative, as the absolutive is unmarked – is agglutinative, but the last consonant and, sometimes, the last vowel, determines the shape of the suffix: | The only inflection in contemporary Skyrdagor – the ergative, as the absolutive is unmarked – is agglutinative, but the last consonant and, sometimes, the last vowel, determines the shape of the suffix: | ||
