It is inspired by Welsh, Hungarian, and classical IE languages (Latin, Greek and Avestan). Pategian is also analogous to Hungarian from a diachronic perspective: roots that are disyllabic in other Pategic languages are often monosyllabic in Pategian.


This is a short reminder of the language format policy.
==Dialects==
Pategian has 4 main dialects:
*Tảmhẻxra
*Fathrẩc
*Kẻlet
*Ảnfihẻzi


I. Write a short piece stating your intents and purposes when creating the language (Design goal, inspiration, ideas, and so on).
II. Write a short introduction to your language. (Who speaks it? When was it created? By whom? or what? are some example questions that can be answered here)
III. Once done, try making sure everything is properly spelt so as to avoid unnecessary reader fatigue.

The symbols X and O denote two underspecified vowels. X can be i, ı, u or ü, and O can be e, a, o or ö.
Old Pategian had a pitch accent in long vowels which could be rising (written ả) or falling (written ạ). The distinction is neutralized in Modern Pategian.

Cascadian Turkic has 6 cases:

|-
| Ending || || -(n)O || -(n)X || -dX/-tX || -dXn/-tXn || -kX, -ŋX after a vowel
|}
 
The plural is -lXŕ.
 
Unusually for a Turkic language, first and second person possessives are prefixes.
 
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Person !! Singular !! Plural
|-
| 1 || be- || rim-
|-
| 2 || ȼe- || re-

The third person possessive is a suffix: -sX or -s (in free variation).
 
===Verbs===
* Simple present: -(X)r-
* Present continuous: -bie-
* Past: -dX/tX-
* Evidential past: -mXs-
* Future: -(X)ẓXŋ-
 
Here are the personal suffixes:
 
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Person !! Singular !! Plural
|-
| 1 || -mXn || -mXr
|-
| 2 || -sXn || -sXr
|-
| 3 || -Ø/-dXŕ/-tXŕ || -Ø/-lXŕ
|}
 
These work somewhat differently in the present continuous tense:
 
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Person !! Singular !! Plural
|-
| 1 || -biemin || -biemir
|-
| 2 || -biesin || -biesir
|-
| 3 || -bier || -bier/-bieliŕ
|}
 
In the future tense and in predicative sentences (where these suffixes are attached to nouns or adjectives), -sXn and -sXr become -ȼXn and -ȼXr respectively.

Pategian (nủtufỉxi, from nủtu 'Pategian' + fỉxi 'language') is a Pategic language spoken by the Pategian people in Tricin.

It is inspired by Welsh, Hungarian, and classical IE languages (Latin, Greek and Avestan). Pategian is also analogous to Hungarian from a diachronic perspective: roots that are disyllabic in other Pategic languages are often monosyllabic in Pategian.

Dialects

Pategian has 4 main dialects:

  • Tảmhẻxra
