Phormatolidin (natively ꙞΔⱵŦΛLΔꝨXꝨИ /ˈfɔrmatɔɴ̆idin/) is a sister language of Clofabosin, spoken in Talma. It preserves a few archaic features that are lost in Clofabosin.
rachin = water (< *rask; ~ Clofab raxin)

Morphology
Nouns
Nouns inflect for definiteness, number and case. The definite suffix is -ide or -id- when followed by another suffix.
There is a distinction between inalienable and alienable possession: the former uses -yl [-ÿɰ̃] and the latter uses -ol [-ɔ̃].
Noun cases:
- -ine /i:n/ = accusative
- -one = dative
- -ase = comitative
- -ate = locative (from terin, house in both Clofabosin and Phormatolidin)
- -ium = relativizer
Pronouns
cephin, ceph- = this
fluorin, fluoro- = that
glycin, glyco- = who? what?
Verbs
There are two tenses in Phormatolidin: past, non-past. The non-past ending is -phen (related to the Clofabosin agentive -fen), and the past ending is -zole.
In the desiderative, the endings are -profen, -prazole.
Attributive verbs
If the subject is the head, the suffix -ol for alienable possession is attached to the inflected form of the verb:
- trycin chlorophenol
- tryc-in chloro-phen-ol
- world-NOM big-PRES-ATTR
- [ˈtrÿkin ˈχɴ̆ɔrɔfɛnɔ̃]
- the big world
- amphin phthozolol
- amph-in phtho-zole-ol
- person-NOM eat-PAST-ATTR
- [ˈaɱfin ˈfθɔzɔɴ̆ɔ̃]
- the person who ate
Otherwise, the clitic -ium is attached to the head noun, followed by the relative clause.
- raskinium plocazole
- the water I drank
Syntax
Due to Talmic and Netagin influence, Phormatolidin is significantly more head-initial than Clofabosin; its basic word order is SVO and uses postpositions.
