The '''Corded Ware languages''' in [[Verse:Lõis|Lõis]] (temporary name) are a paleo-European (pre-Indo-European) language family spoken in much of Europe. The family's Urheimat is usually regarded to be somewhere in Central and Eastern Europe, where corded ware artifacts have been found. This article will document the Proto-Corded Ware language.

*Resonants: '''m n l rr r w y''' /m n l r ɹ w j/
*Vowels: '''a e i u ë''' /ä e i u ə/
 
===Stress===

===Phonotactics===
Only slightly less restrictive than Tamil; more restrictive than Latin
 
Proto-CW often added enunciative vowels to words ending in consonants, so for example ''*isqal'' 'child (nom.)' often became ''*isqallë''.
 
==Grammar==
*SVO or SOV
*Both prefixing and suffixing
*cases and Suffixaufnahme; not Altaic
*stem changes in nouns (like Uralic)
*polypersonal verbs
*aspect rather than tense
*mood inflections for verbs
===Pronouns===
1st pers. *t, 2nd pers. *l, 3rd pers. *w
 
===Nouns===
Corded Ware had suffixes for noun cases; however there was no separate accusative case.
 
Plurals were often (usually?) marked by stem change.
 
Declension of ''*isqal'' = child
 
*nominative: ''isqal(lë)'', ''esqal(lë)''
*genitive: ''isqalef'', ''esqalef''
*locative
*adessive
*ablative
