Morphology

Nouns

Plurals and collectives are formed with -az and -os.

The definite article is ce(n). It triggers lenition in the accusative and genitive: ce χyphro "the blood (nom.)", ce χhyphro "the blood (acc., gen.)"

Adjectives and attributive verbs are also lenited after a noun in the accusative.

Verbs

Verbs use -en in the present, -zol in the past. The future is marked by an auxiliary sce (from scen "go") before the verb.

• φθon = 'eats'
• φθozol = 'ate'
• sce φθo = 'will eat'
