Atlantic (natively otrantih [ɔˈtrantiχ] or nimba otrantiha [ˈnimba ɔˈtrantiχa]) also referred to as Rumonian (natively rumon [ruˈmɔn] or nimba rumona [ˈnimba ruˈmɔna], literally "Roman" and "Roman language") is a Romance language spoken in an alternate history version of Earth in Atlantiana (Otrantiana [ɔtranˈtjana]), a country located in the northwestern corner of Africa. The country's name is a remnant of Roman history, when the area – including the Atlas Mountains as its main geographical feature – was divided in the provinces of Numidia, Mauretania Caesariensis, and Mauretania Tingitana.

It has various dialects, usually grouped in main varieties corresponding to the main geographical and cultural areas of the country. The two main varieties are called Mauritanian (moiriṭonyinsi [mwariθɔˈɲinsi]), the one the standard is based on, and Numidian (numiginsi [numiˈdʑinsi]); some sources distinguish two further varieties, Teneréïc (tenerinsi [tɛnɛˈrinsi]) and Senegal Riparian (Niu-flumininsi [ˈniu̯ flumiˈninsi]); these two varieties are greatly influenced by the non-Romance languages they coexist with. In Atlantiana, it is the native language of about 70% of the population, the nationwide de facto lingua franca, and one of the six official languages, sharing official status with the native languages of the remaining 30% of the population: the Berber languages in most of the country and Fula, Wolof, Soninke, and Bambara in the south.

Atlantic is aesthetically inspired by selected sound changes in various other Romance languages, most notably Sicilian, Romansh, French, and various dialects of Lombard, especially Alpine ones^(LMO). It also includes some features taken by my now-abandoned former romlang projects, Wendlandish and an unrelated romlang for the same setting, as well as some unique features, such as intervocalic voiceless stops leniting to voiceless fricatives instead of voiced stops (like the Tuscan gorgia, but here it's become phonemic).

It aims to be an extremely conservative Romance language in its morphology, with many irregularities directly deriving from Latin, and with little analogical levelling; for example, the different ways to build the perfect are maintained almost without change for nearly every inherited verb except for those in the productive first conjugation. The development of the various synthetic tenses is however almost identical to that of Portuguese, except for the innovative future and conditional which are respectively different and non-existant in Atlantic. It also maintains neuter nouns as distinct from the other two genders. It is not meant to fit with existing Romance languages in the sense I purposely took as inspirations various features from all over the Romance-speaking world, and therefore does not fit in any subgrouping.

Development

Vocalic changes

The Atlantic vocalic system was formed through an evolution that, while with many common elements with other Romance languages, was unique in having kept long and short /a/ distinct, the former shifting to /ɑ/ and later merging with surviving instances of /ɔ/. Otherwise, the development of vowels was much like Sicilian, as the table below hints:

Latin	Early Atlantic	Modern Atlantic	Example	Cognates
A, Ā	*a, *ɑ	a, o	BARCAM → barca *paraulāre → parlori	Sicilian barca, varca; Italian barca; French barque Sic. parrari; It. parlare; Fr. parler
E, AE, OE	*ɛ	e (atonic: i)	VEDĒRE → viḍiri CENTRUM → centr	Sic. vidiri; It. vedere; Fr. voir Sic. centru; It. centro; Fr. centre
Ē, Ī, I	*i, *i, *ɪ	i	VEDĒRE → viḍiri DŌRMĪRE → durmiri SIMPLICEM → simprici	Sic. vidiri; It. vedere; Fr. voir Sic. durmiri; It. dormire; Fr. dormir Sic. simprici; It. semplice; Fr. simple
O	*ɔ	o	SOMNUM → son	Sic. sonnu; It. sonno; Fr. somme
Ō, Ū, U	*u, *u, *ʊ	u	AMŌREM → amuri NUCEM → nuxi PŪNCTUM → punyt	Sic. amuri; It. amore; Fr. amour Sic. nuci; It. noce; Fr. noix Sic. puntu; It. punto; Fr. point
AU	*ɑw~ɒj	oi ([ɔɪ̯] or [wa])	*aucellum → oichaly	Sic. aceddu; It. uccello; Fr. oiseau

Changes not mentioned in the above table are triggered by neighboring sounds, most particularly l and r:

• As in many Gallo-Italic varieties, Latin short a was backed and rounded before a coda l, see ALTUM → olt (cf. Lombard olt, French haut, Italian alto).
• The same result happened for ul sequences, which were lowered, see FULMEN → folmin (cf. Lom. fulmen, It. fulmine).
• Breaking of Latin short e and o happened in a more limited way than in other Romance languages where it happened; in the standard dialect, it only occurred before original r and l; however, it happened indistinctly in open and closed syllables. In the standard, it also did not happen after velar consonants, though it did happen after h; note that it happened after the palatalization of velars before front vowels, so that short e is broken almost without exceptions. In some dialects, those two vowels were also broken after n and/or after velars. The results are always ia (for broken e) and ua (for broken o), but the semivocalic i in the former merged with a preceding l, n, s, or h to ly, ny, x, and j respectively. See examples:

  Lat. CAELUM, *morit → char, muaril (cf. Fr. ciel, meurt; Lom. ciel, mœur; It. cielo, muore; Spanish cielo, muere, Portuguese céu, (morre))

  Lat. TERRAM, PORTAM → tiara, puarta (cf. Fr. terre, porte; Lom. terra, porta; It. terra, porta; Sp. tierra, puerta; Pt. terra, porta)

Dialectally, vowel breaking was more widespread. In Numidia, it remained productive late enough to affect original ul (see above), but not original al or even long a (which remained *ɑ(l) for longer) - as in fualmin for standard folmin. This usage extended to later loanwords, as in arbialg "hotel" for standard arbelg (Medieval Latin HARIBERGUM), or in the given name doublet Albert and Albiart (← ALBERTUM). In Western Mauritania and Numidia, it affected vowels after velars too (see Western Mauritanian cuardi, Numidian cuari for Standard/general Mauritanian cordi "heart", or both W.Mauritanian and Numidian cuarnu for Std. cornu (← CORNŪ)) and also vowels before n as in buan for Std. bon "good" (← BONUM). The fact these dialects break vowels before n, but still only when stressed, creates even more stem alternations in the conjugation of some verbs compared to standard Atlantic, such as spuandi, spondimu for Std. spondi, spondimu "I declare, we declare" (← SPONDEŌ, SPONDĒMUS).
Reborrowings or learned words, especially Biblical proper nouns, often created doublets, as in the given name "Peter" being usually Piatr [ˈpjatar], but Petrus [ˈpɛtrus] when referring to Saint Peter.

Note that original Latin long a only merged with o later, and never underwent vowel breaking.

Metaphony

Metaphony occurs in a very limited environment, that is, as the result of original non-syllabic /i/ in the [pja bja mja] sequences. The /i/ disappears, raising a preceding [a ɛ ɔ] to [ɛ i u] respectively. It is most commonly encountered in subjunctive verb forms:

• CAMBIAM → *cʲambjã > cemba "I change (subj.)"
• RAPIAM → *rapjã > repa "I steal (subj.)"
• DORMIAM → *dormjã > durma "I sleep (subj.)"

	Voiced		v v	s z
Liquids				r r l l	(ly ʎ)
Approximants		u w			i, ly j

The phonemes /ɕ ʎ/ are only found in some dialects; Standard Atlantic merges them with /ç j/ respectively (cf. oichaly "bird" /ˈwaˈtɕaj ~ waˈtɕaʎ/ or seix "six" /ˈsɛç ~ ˈsɛɕ/). In the dialects where /ɕ/ is a distinct phoneme, [ç x] are in complementary distribution, with the former occurring before front vowels and the latter elsewhere.

/l/ is realized as a voiceless lateral fricative [ɬ] word-finally and before voiceless consonants, and as its voiced equivalent [ɮ] before voiced consonants.

In standard Atlantic, voiced stops are allophonically geminated after a stressed vowel, e.g. in pubric "public" /ˈpubrik/ [ˈpubːrik], abidihu "I decline" /ˈabidiχu/ [ˈabːidiχu], or Vurubiri "Volubilis" /vuˈrubiri/ [vuˈrubːiri].

/ŋ/ is a marginal phoneme, limited to the /ŋn/ sequence, written as mm as in amma /ˈaŋna/ "person", ommisantor /oŋnizanˈtɔr/ "November", or limmi /ˈliŋni/ "brown"; due to spelling pronunciation, nativized loanwords with written mm are typically pronounced with this sequence, such as the name Emma /ˈɛŋna/.
The sequence /ŋɡ/ is, in Numidia, often realized as [ŋn], which leads to it being written as mm by less educated speakers. Examples include sungu [ˈsuŋɡu ~ ˈsuŋnu] "I am" or Hungariha [χuŋˈɡariχa ~ χuŋˈnariχa] "Hungary".

Word-initial consonants are, for many speakers, allophonically geminated due to assimilation of a preceding consonant from a clitic. This most notably happens with aḍ:

• Fui aḍ Napuli "I was in Naples" [ˈfui̯ anˈnapuli];
• Ilu vivil aḍ Briṭonya "he lives in Great Britain" [ilu ˈviviɬ abːriˈθɔɲa].

Orthography

c, g, h

The letters c, g, h have different pronunciations depending on the following vowel:

• Before a, o, u they represent /k ɡ χ/
• Before i, e they represent /tɕ dʑ ç/

Note that the /ç/ phoneme may also be written x in all positions due to a general sound shift, representing earlier /ɕ/ when written as such. Most Numidian dialects still pronounce x as /ɕ/. In order to write the same sounds before the opposite pair of letters, the following letters or digraphs are used:

• Palatal sound + a, o, u → ch, j, x
• Velar sound + i, e → qu, gu; the sequences /χi χe/ do not exist in Atlantic.

s, x

The letter s may represent two or three different phonemes depending on dialect: /s z/ are common to all Atlantic dialects, with /z/ never occurring word-initially or word-finally and being the only one to happen before voiced consonants, and being written as s intervocalically; in this position, the only one where it contrasts with /s/, the latter is written ss.

Word-finally, /s z/ do not contrast as only the former is possible, however in the /z/ may appear in inflected forms. Despite this, and the option of a /z/ phoneme being realized as [s] word-finally being possible, the orthography does not distinguish between them and always writes s. The only two words with word-final ss are the negative particle pass and the adverb press "near".

The third phoneme represented by s is /ɕ/, limited to a few Numidian dialects and only occurring before a soft c as in nosciri "to be born" /ˈnɔɕtɕiri/. These dialects' /ɕtɕ/ sequence corresponds to /stɕ/ elsewhere (cf. standard /ˈnɔstɕiri/).

The letter x represents historical /ɕ/, which has shifted to /ç/ in all dialects except for those of mountain areas and far eastern Numidia; a peculiar characteristic of the dialect of Hippo Regius in the far east of the country is the "hardening" of this sound to /ʂ/ (lu xi hipuriginsi). Word-finally, this phoneme is written as ix after vowels, and it may contrast with x in some learned Greek or Latin words which represents /ks/, with the most common minimal pair being seix "six" /sɛç ~ sɛɕ/ [sɛç ~ sɛɕ] vs. sex "sex" /sɛks/ [ˈsɛkɛs]. The only exception is for acronyms where a word-final x was word-medial in the source word; in such words, the i-less spelling is kept but with the /ç/ sound, as in soxnox "Nazi" /sɔçˈnɔç ~ sɔɕˈnɔɕ/ (acronym of soxorista noxunori).
Originally Greek given names with x may be pronounced with either /ç/ or /ks/; the latter pronunciation is more formal, but the former is more common - cf. Anaxagora /anaçaˈgɔra ~ anaksaˈgɔra/ or Xerxi /ˈçɛrçi ~ ˈksɛrksi/. However, for Arixandr and Arixandra only the pronunciation with /ç/ is used.

Epenthesis

Epenthetic unwritten vowels are found in most dialects in virtually every word-final written cluster, except for nasal+stop ones, where only the nasal is pronounced. The epenthetic vowel is always unstressed and of the same quality of the preceding vowel. They are not analyzed as phonemic.

Examples:

• olt "high, tall" (m./n. sg.) /ɔlt/ [ˈɔlɔt] (cf. olta "high, tall" (f. sg./n. pl.) /ˈɔlta/ [ˈɔɬta])
• vestr "your(s)" (m./n. sg.) /vɛstr/ [ˈvɛstɛr] (cf. vestra "your(s)" (f. sg./n. pl.) /ˈvɛstra/ [ˈvɛstra])
• agr "field"/aɡr/ [ˈaɡːar] (cf. agrus "fields" /ˈaɡrus/ [ˈaɡːrus])
• spuns "declared" (m./n. sg.) /spuns/ [ˈspunus] (cf. spunsa "declared" (f. sg./n. pl.) /ˈspunsa/ [ˈspunsa])
• punyt "point" /puɲt/ [puɲ] (cf. punytus "points" /ˈpuɲtus/ [ˈpunʲtʲʉs])
• voḍunt "they go" /ˈvɔðun/ [ˈvɔðun]

Note, as for /nC/ finals, that adrint "close to" does have a pronounced [t] when before the indefinite articles un and una.

Morphology

Nouns

Nouns do not inflect for case, just for number, and have different pluralization patterns inherited by the Latin declensions and their various subtypes, including those for Greek nouns. Gender is not marked on the nouns themselves, but on accompanying adjectives and articles.

Singular marker	Plural marker	Gender	Notes	Origin	Examples
-a	-os	mostly feminine a few masculine ones	productive for feminine nouns	1st declension; some masculine nouns were originally Greek.	afa → afos (water(s)) (f) poïṭa → poïṭos (poet(s)) (m)
	-ta	neuter		Greek learned borrowings	clima → climata (climate(s)) (n)
-i	-is	masculine, feminine		3rd declension (m./f. nouns)	lavuri → lavuris (work(s)) (m) parti → partis (part(s)) (f)
	-a	neuter		3rd declension (n. nouns) with reanalyzed stems	cordi → corda (heart(s)) (n)
	-inya	neuter	movable -n in the singular	3rd declension (n. nouns)	numi → numinya (name(s)) (n)
	-os	feminine		1st declension for Greek nouns	ninfi → ninfos (nymph(s)) (f)
-∅	-us	masculine	productive	2nd and 4th declension (m. nouns)	vent → ventus (wind(s)) (m) vioṭih → vioṭihus (travel(s)) (f)
	-a	neuter	the last consonant may be modified	2nd declension (n. nouns), a few 3rd declension ones	nimal → nimalya (animal(s)) (n)
	-ora	neuter		3rd declension neuters	liṭ → liṭora (coast(s)) (n)
-o	-us	masculine neuter in learned borrowings	movable -n in the singular	2nd declension for Greek nouns (m./n. nouns)	finomino → finominus (phaenomenon, -a) (m)
-u	-a	neuter		4th declension (n. nouns)	cornu → corna (horn(s)) (n)

Vocative

Masculine given names (and a small number of common nouns) in Atlantic have a distinct vocative form. This ending, -u, is not a continuation of the original Latin vocative; instead, it can be explained as a lengthening of the final vowel of original -UM nouns, therefore reconstructing the Pre-Atlantic form as *-ū, which prevented the vowel from being dropped.

The vocative form is used, in popular speech, for every masculine given names which ends in a consonant; prescriptive grammar, however, does not accept it for the common Greek names which had a different ending (and typically end in stressed -os, -on, or -es).
Some examples:

• Cir → Ciru!
• Albert → Albertu!
• Ginnar → Ginnaru!
• Piatr → Piatru!
• Xenofon → Xenofon! (standard), Xenofonu! (colloquial)
• Diocles → Diocles! (standard), Dioclesu! (colloquial)
• Arquimedi → Arquimedi! (does not end in a consonant)

Adjectives

Adjectives follow two different declensions, one with four distinct forms and another with three. Neuter nouns take masculine singular agreement when singular, and feminine singular when plural.

Declension	Masculine sg. Neuter sg.	Feminine sg. Neuter pl.	Masculine pl.	Feminine pl.
First	-∅	-a	-us	-os
Second	-i		-is

First declension

Singular ex.: charus furmus, charusa furmusa, cordi furmus = "handsome boy", "beautiful girl", "kind heart"

Plural ex.: charusus furmusus, charusos furmusos, corda furmusa = "handsome boys", "beautiful girls", "kind hearts"

Second declension

Singular ex.: amix viroci, amixa virocha, joixi viroci = "real friend", "real friend", "real pleasure"

Plural ex.: amicus virocis, amixos virocis, joixa virocha = "real friends", "real friends", "real pleasures"

Comparatives and superlatives

Atlantic, unlike other Romance languages, maintained the synthetic forms for comparatives and superlatives, though it still uses the common Romance analytic forms in less formal styles:

• Formal:

  Lucia i Tecra funt oltos. "Lucy and Thecla are tall."

  Tecra ê olxura pu Lucia. "Thecla is taller than Lucy."

  Tecra ê olxissima. "Thecla is the tallest one."

• Informal:

  Tecra ê prus olta pu Lucia. "Thecla is taller than Lucy."

  Tecra ê la prus olta. "Thecla is the tallest one."

In some mostly set phrases, the synthetic comparatives are always used, like in Il Monti Chandiḍ ê il monti olxissim di Jolya i Iṭolya. "Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in France and Italy" (never, while grammatically correct, "ê il monti prus olt").
Analytic comparatives use prus "more" (or miny "less"), the adjective, and pu introducing the comparison term (the latter also in synthetic comparatives). Analytic superlatives use the article before prus or miny, while synthetic comparatives never use the article.

Synthetic comparatives are, for all adjectives, second declension adjectives formed with -iuri (with i assimilating to the previous consonant):

Singular: arun olxuri, turi olxura, nimal olxuri "taller student", "taller tower", "taller animal"

Plural: arunis olxuris, turis olxuris, nimalya olxura "taller students", "taller towers", "taller animals"

Adjectives in -rCi or -lCi typically have -Criuri (e.g. charilbi "famous" → ciribriuri "more famous")

For most adjectives, synthetic superlatives are first declension adjectives in -issim:

Singular: arun olxissim, turi olxissima, nimal olxissim "tallest student", "tallest tower", "tallest animal"

Plural: arunis olxissimus, turis olxissimos, nimalya olxissima "tallest students", "tallest towers", "tallest animals"

Adjectives in -rCi or -lCi (-ER in Latin) form the superlative in -iarim, e.g. charilbi → ciribiarim "most famous".
Adjectives in -iri (-ILIS in Latin) form the superlative in -ilyim, e.g. faxiri "easy" → faxilyim "easiest".

Irregular forms

Some adjectives exclusively have synthetic forms which are irregular or suppletive. Often, Atlantic replaced the positive grade with a different adjective, similar to other Romance languages (as in PRESSUM, VETULUM, MINŪTUM instead of PROPINQUUM, SENEM, PARVUM), but kept the irregular forms, adding more suppletion.

Adjective	Positive	Comparative	Superlative
	bon (dial. buan) (good')	milyuri (better)	utim (dial. oitim, autim) (best)
	mal (bad, evil')	pijuri (worse)	pessim (worst)
	grandi (great, large)	mojuri (greater)	maxim (greatest)
	minuṭ (dial. parv) (small)	minuri (lesser)	minim (least)
	murt (dial. mult) (much, many)	prus (more)	plurim (most)
	press (near, close)	prupiuri (nearer)	proxim (nearest, next)
	postir (next, future, following)	postiriuri (later)	postrim (last, latest)
	vialt (dial. velt) (old, aged)	sinyuri (or an. prus vialt) (older, elder)	sinissim ('oldest, eldest')
	juvini (young, youthful)	junyuri (or an. prus juvini) (younger)	junissim ('youngest')

Articles, demonstratives, and possessives

The indefinite article and the possessives are inflected like first declension adjectives; the definite article and the distal demonstrative, however, have a distinct form for the neuter singular.

Type	Masculine sg.	Neuter sg.	Feminine sg. Neuter pl.	Masculine pl.	Feminine pl.
Definite article	il	lu	la	lus	los
Indefinite article	nu		una	unus	unos
This, these (non-distal)	lûnc		lânc	lûsus	lôsos
That, those (distal)	lûric	ludic	lâric	lûsic	lôsic
meu, teu, seu	meu		ma	meus	mos
nostr, vestr	nostr		nostra	nostrus	nostros

The remaining possessives (eiu, ilur, ilor, ipsur, ipsor), which derive from genitive forms, are not inflected.

Atlantic, unlike other Romance languages with a two-way demonstrative distinction, uses the "proximal" form for medial demonstratives, which is hence termed "non-distal":

Lûnc vixilc pu eu tenyu ê ciruly. "This car that I have is blue." (cf. Italian "Questa macchina che io ho è blu")

Lûnc vixilc pu tu tenis ê ciruly. "That (lit. this) car that you have is blue." (cf. It. "Quella/codesta macchina che tu hai è blu")

Ludic vixilc pu Lucia tenil ê ciruly. "That car that Lucy has is blue." (cf. It. "Quella macchina che ha Lucia è blu")

Ordinals

Standalone ordinal numerals exist for the units 1-10, for the tens, one hundred, and one thousand:

1st prim

2nd sihund

3rd tiarx

4th port

90th nunoxisim

100th cintisim

Intermediate numbers combine the ordinals of units with the ones of the tens or the immediately preceding non-zero digit, with the remaining part being the same as the cardinal:

11th dexim prim

37th trixisim seutim

103rd centisim tiarx

119th cent dexim nunim

200th sihund cintisim

240th du cintisim pardoxisim

3900th tria milya nunim cintisim

3970th tria milya noi cintisim seutoxisim

3975th tria milya nungenta seutoxisim pinyt

In informal spoken language, however, for numbers from 21 onwards except those with standalone forms, it is common for all digits but the last to be cardinal, e.g. vinti prim for 21st or duxenta pimpointo sest for "256th".

Pronouns

The Atlantic pronoun system has less forms than Latin does, but is still (clitic system aside) more complex than other Romance languages. A peculiarity, shared with a few languages such as older forms of Italian, is that there is an animacy distinction in the third person pronouns, with animate forms derived from the Latin demonstratives (ILLUM, cf. It. egli, ella), and the inanimate ones derived from the emphatics (IPSUM, cf. It. esso, essa).

		Feminine	ipsos		-(s)os			ipsor
Refl.			—	si	-(u)s	sivi	-(u)si	seu

Table notes:

1. When preceding any clitic, third person singular -l becomes -t (e.g. ilu viḍil "he sees", ilu viḍit-un "he sees us").
2. The forms with -l- are used after consonants, except for t, d, or n; those with -r- after vowels and the previously mentioned consonants.

For courtesy forms, traditionally the locution la sinyuria is used (e.g. la sinyuria dixil "you [formal] say"), with third person singular agreement no matter if the referent is plural or singular. Among younger generations, French influence has made vus (e.g. vus dixiṭi as the formal equivalent of tu dixis) also common as a courtesy form.

The accusative and indirect forms most commonly used are the clitic ones. The full forms are used for emphasis and after prepositions.

• Heri viḍi-ru "I saw him yesterday"
• Heri viḍi-ra "I saw her yesterday"
• Heri viḍis-lu "You saw him yesterday"
• Cros daṭur-um iaris dil cuḍixi? "Will you give me the book tomorrow?" (note that Atlantic is secundative!)
• Cros daṭur-li iaris? "Will you give that tomorrow?"
• Du-ru dil cuḍixi "I give him the book"
• Lu vos agroxa-mi "I like the vase"
• Custiṭil-umi pardointo dinoris. "It cost me 40 denarii"

Furthermore, there are the two weak adverbial pronouns an and iv. The former is used to replace indefinite, quantitative, and ablative expressions, as well as arguments introduced by di; the latter replaces locative and lative ones:

• Parlantis iromu dâ nova taviarna di vistimenta "we were talking about the new clothing shop" → Parlantis an iromu "we were talking about it"
• Amiṭa ma tenil pimpi virocha vosa sininsa "my aunt has five real Chinese vases" → Amiṭa ma an tenil pimpi "my aunt has five of them"
• – Tenis una tauleta? "do you have a tablet" – Oc, an tenyu (una) "yes, I have (one)"
• Amix meu fuara voil e insura "my friend goes out of the apartment" → Amix meu fuara an voil "my friend goes out of it"
• Iṭur sungu nôs Aṭinos "I will go to Athens" → Iv iṭur sungu "I will go there"
• Iaris nôs Sirohusos? "Are you in Syracuse?" → Oc, iv sungu "Yes, I am there"

Adverbs

(TBA)

Some locational adverbs have two distinct forms: one of them lative and the other stative:

English	Lative	Stative
Outside	fuara	difuara
Inside	intra	dintra (formerly written dîntra)
Here	aïvi	ivi
There	aloc	iloc
In front of	âfronti	difronti
Behind	âretru	diretru

Verbs

Verbs generally have six moods: three finite (indicative, subjunctive, imperative) and three non-finite ones (infinitive, participle, gerundive). Unlike other Romance languages, Atlantic did not develop a conditional mood.

The indicative and subjunctive are composed of various simple tenses plus other compound ones, while the other moods only have a few forms (the imperative) in a single tense, or have a simple tense and a compound one. The indicative simple tenses are present, imperfect, past (from the Latin perfect), and past perfect. The subjunctive only has three: present, imperfect (from the Latin past perfect subj.), and future (from Latin future perfect ind.) - the origin of the various tenses is therefore the same as in other languages like Portuguese.

Verbs in Atlantic are typically cited with three or four principal parts: the infinitive, the 1sg present indicative, the 1sg past indicative, and the past participle; unlike Latin, but like other Romance languages, the infinitive and not the 1sg present indicative is used as citation form. The 1sg present indicative is mostly needed in cases where the root had a short E in Latin which is stressed (and kept or broken) in the 1sg present indicative form, but unstressed in the infinitive (where it therefore became /i/). An example is the verb irori "to make a mistake" ← ERRĀRE, whose 1sg present indicative form is iaru ← ERRŌ (cf. cinsiri "to think" (← CĒNSĒRE) and cinsi "I think" (← CĒNSEŌ), where this does not happen due to the different original vowel).

Only the first conjugation is still productive, and it is also the one with the fewest irregular verbs (most verbs in it have the same root in all principal parts).

First conjugation

The first conjugation includes verbs whose infinitive ends in -ori (← -ĀRE).

First conjugation, simple tenses: amori, amu, amovi, amoṭ "to love"

Person	Indicative				Subjunctive			Imperative
	Present	Imperfect	Perfect	Pluperfect	Present	Imperfect	Future
1SG	amu	amova	amovi	amiara	ami	amoissi	amiaru	—
2SG	amos	amovos	amoisti	amiaros	amis	amoissis	amiaris	amo

2PL	amoṭi	amovoṭi	amoisti	ameroṭi	amiṭi	amoissiṭi	ameriṭi	amoṭi
3PL	amant	amovant	amoirunt	amiarant	amint	amoissint	amiarint	amint
	Pres. participle	Past participle	Future participle	Gerundive	Infinitive
	amanti	amoṭ	amoṭur	amand	amori

Second conjugation

The second conjugation includes three slightly different patterns, as sound changes coalesced the latter three conjugations of Latin mostly into similar forms. The infinitive for all second conjugation verbs ends in -iri, stressed for those that continue the 2nd and 4th Latin conjugations (← -ĒRE, -IRE) and unstressed for the others, continuing the 3rd conjugation of Latin (← -ERE).

1. The first pattern continues the second conjugation, and has -e- as the thematic vowel in the participles and -i- in the 1SG and 3PL present indicative inflections;
2. The second pattern continues the third conjugation, and also has -e- as thematic vowel for the participles, but -u- in the 1SG and 3PL present indicative inflections;
3. The third pattern, continuing the fourth conjugation, always has -i- as thematic vowel in both participles and 1SG/3PL present indicative.

Few second conjugation verbs are completely regular, and some of them have a fifth principal part, namely the subjunctive present, whose stem has often being modified by diachronically regular palatalization of the last consonant in many verbs (as in sponxa (← SPONDEAM) for the verb spondiri) or sporadic metaphony in a few others (as in cemba (← CAMBIAM) for the verb chambiri). Most second conjugation verbs, furthermore, have a different stem in the perfect, usually inherited from Latin (cf. for the two verbs above spondi "I declare", spofondi "I declared" (← SPONDEŌ, SPOPONDĪ) and chambi "I change", chansi "I changed" (← CAMBIŌ, CAMPSĪ)). There are therefore two different possible exits for the 1SG and 3SG in the perfect, usually depending on how it was conjugated in Latin:

1. Latin perfects in -ĒVĪ, -VĪ, -ĪVĪ: -ei, -isti, -eil, -imu, -isti, -irunt
2. All other verbs: -i, -isti, -il, -imu, -isti, -irunt

The regular past participle for all second conjugation verbs is -iṭ (← -ITUM, -ĪTUM), but many verbs have irregular forms. The future participle for all verbs is formed by adding -ur to the past participle.

Second conjugation (pattern 1), simple tenses: spondiri, spondi, spofondi, spuns(, sponxa) "to declare"

Person	Indicative				Subjunctive			Imperative
	Present	Imperfect	Perfect	Pluperfect	Present	Imperfect	Future

Second conjugation (pattern 3), simple tenses: chambiri, chambi, chansi, chambiṭ(, cemba) "to touch"

Person	Indicative				Subjunctive			Imperative
	Present	Imperfect	Perfect	Pluperfect	Present	Imperfect	Future

	chambinti	chambiṭ	chambiṭur	chambind	chambiri

The verb fairi (← FACERE), faxu, fixi, fait "to do, make" is a regular pattern 2 second conjugation verb, except for it having contracted forms in the infinitive and in the 2SG and 3SG indicative present; all other forms are regular. The same principle extends to the same forms of the verb voiri (← VĀDERE) "to go", however, it is irregular due to suppletion in other moods and tenses.

Inchoative verbs all follow the second pattern, and their infinitive ends in unstressed -esciri [-ˈɛstɕiri]. Their past always has [-sk-]] (e.g. amesqui "I started to love", amesquisti "you started to love"), and their past participles are regular -esciṭ, -esciṭur. Most of them are derived by other verbs, but some have unique meanings (e.g. cunyussesciri "to meet someone for the first time", or locutions with impersonal verbs such as (tempora) hiviarnescunt "winter is starting" (lit. "times start to winter")).

To be (siḍiri), to have (haviri), and other irregular verbs

The verbs "to be" (siḍiri ← ASSIDĒRE, most of the conjugation from SUM, parts from FĪŌ, participles also from ASSIDEŌ) and "to have" (haviri ← HABĒRE) are irregular. The former is deeply suppletive (inheriting many irregularities from Latin); the latter is functionally a pattern 1 second conjugation verb with widespread irregularities due to contraction and analogy.

"To be", simple tenses: siḍiri, sungu, fui, sis

Person	Indicative				Subjunctive			Imperative
	Present	Imperfect	Perfect	Pluperfect	Present	Imperfect	Future
1SG	sungu	iara	fui	fiara	siu fïa	fussi	fiaru	—
2SG	iaris	iaros	fusti	fiaros	sis fïos	fussis	fiaris	es
3SG	ê	iaral	fuch	fiaral	sil fïal	fussil	fiaril	fïal
1PL	fimu	iromu	fuimu	firomu	simu fiomu	fussimu	firimu	fiomu
2PL	fiṭi	iroṭi	fusti	firoṭi	siṭi fioṭi	fussiṭi	firiṭi	esti
3PL	funt	iarant	ferunt	fiarant	sint fïant	fussint	fiarint	fïant
	Pres. participle	Past participle	Future participle	Gerundive	Infinitive
	siḍenti	sis	sissur fuṭur	siḍend	siḍiri

Of the two future participles, sissur is used when in a locative sense, otherwise fuṭur is used. In the present subjunctive, the fïa ones are used when the meaning is optative, which leads to them being used as imperatives:

• Spiru pu fioṭi sihurus. "I hope you may be safe." (cf. spiru pu siṭi sihurus which makes the sentence assume the alternate meaning of sihur, "sure" - "I hope you are sure")
• Fioṭi sihurus! "May you be safe!"
• Esti sihurus! "Be safe!"

"To have", simple tenses: haviri, hoi, hoibi, haiṭ

Person	Indicative				Subjunctive			Imperative
	Present	Imperfect	Perfect	Pluperfect	Present	Imperfect	Future
1SG	hoi	hiva	hoibi	haviara	heia	hoibissi	haviaru	—
2SG	hais	hivos	hoibisti	haviaros	heios	hoibissis	haviaris	hai
3SG	hal	hival	hoibil	haviaral	heial	hoibissil	haviaril	heial
1PL	havimu	hivomu	hoibimu	haveromu	heiomu	hoibissimu	haverimu	heiomu

3PL	hant	hivant	hoibirunt	haviarant	heiant	hoibissint	haviarint	heiant
	Pres. participle	Past participle	Future participle	Gerundive	Infinitive
	haventi	haiṭ	haiṭur	havend	haviri

Note that, exclusively when expressing possession, the regular verb tiniri is usually the preferred one for "to have", e.g. tenyu du infantis = hoi du infantis "I have two children".

The verb dori (to give) has a monoconsonantal stem, except for 1SG present indicative which is extended like in siḍiri:

"To give", simple tenses: dori, dungu, deḍi, doṭ

Person	Indicative				Subjunctive			Imperative
	Present	Imperfect	Perfect	Pluperfect	Present	Imperfect	Future
1SG	dungu	dova	deḍi	diḍiara	den	diḍissi	diḍiaru	—

The verb stori, stungu, steṭi, staṭ (to stand) follows the same conjugation; however, it is literary, replaced in parts of its conjugation by sistiri, sistu, steṭi, staṭ:

"To stand", simple tenses: sistiri, sistu, steṭi, staṭ ~ stori, stungu, steṭi, staṭ

The verb possiri (to be able to), mostly inherited from POSSUM, POSSE, unlike other verbs, wasn't regularized and even lost forms, so that it is defective and relies on participles for all forms except for the present and imperfect indicative and the non-finite ones:

The verb vialyiri "to want" is irregular, inherited from Latin:

The verb voiri (to go) is a new suppletive from two different Latin verbs, VĀDERE (which gives the infinitive, present participle, indicative present, indicative past, and the imperative) and ĪRE. The infinitive is a contracted form from earlier voḍiri (cf. fairi from faxiri).

Deponent verbs

Deponent and defective verbs have been partially regularized, that is, they have been rendered true active verbs in the present and imperfect indicative and in the subjunctive, but only have analytic forms for the past and pluperfect. Therefore, they all look like Latin semi-deponent verbs.
All deponent verbs in Atlantic are of the second pattern (unstressed) -iri verbs.

There are less deponent verbs than in Latin, but most of them are quite commonly used:

• aḍipisciri "to get, obtain" (also auxiliary) ~ aḍipiscu, aḍeut
• fruiri "to enjoy" ~ fruu, fruit
• groltiri "to thank" ~ groltu, groṭ (dialectally non-deponent groltori/groṭurori, groltu/groṭuru, groltovi/groṭurovi, groṭuroṭ)
• ispiariri "to experience" ~ ispiaru, ispiart
• meminiri "to remember" ~ memini, mimint
• obrivisciri "to forget" ~ obriviscu, obriṭ
• opiniri "to think, judge" ~ opinu, opinoṭ (dialectally non-deponent opinori, opinu, opinovi, opinoṭ)
• oriri "to appear" ~ oriu, ort

Periphrastic forms

Atlantic verbs, in addition to the synthetic forms listed above, conjugate using an array of periphrastic forms, here with trubori "to sing" as an example verb:

• Present continuous: present participle + present of siḍiri

  e.g. trubanti sungu "I'm singing"

• Past continuous: present participle + imperfect of siḍiri

  e.g. trubanti iara "I was singing"

• Past reportative (for most verbs) / simple past (for formerly deponent verbs): past participle + present of haviri (transitive verbs)/siḍiri (intransitive)

  e.g. truboṭ hal "[it's said that] (s)he sang" — aḍeut hoi "I got" — iṭ ê "[it's said that] (s)he went"

• Pluperfect reportative (for most verbs) / pluperfect (for formerly deponent verbs): past participle + imperfect of haviri (transitive verbs)/siḍiri (intransitive)

  e.g. truboṭ hival "[it's said that] (s)he had sung" — aḍeut hiva "I had got" — iṭ iaral "[it's said that] (s)he had gone"

• Future: future active participle + present of siḍiri

  e.g. truboṭur sungu "I will sing"

• Future perfect: future active participle + iṭur (or fuṭur) + present of siḍiri

  e.g. truboṭur iṭur/fuṭur sungu "I will have sung"

The passive forms are also formed periphrastically, with a passive participle and the corresponding forms of siḍiri:

• Present: truboṭ ê "it is [being] sung"
• Imperfect: truboṭ iaral "it was [being] sung"
• Past: truboṭ fuch "it has been/was sung"
• Pluperfect: truboṭ fiaral "it had been sung"
• Future: truband ê "it will be sung"
• Future perfect: truband iṭur/fuṭur ê "it will have been sung"

Some verbs like cîri "to call, name", or verbs such as apiri-s "to buy" when used reflexively (see below for that case), are intransitive and can't build an actual passive, but a passive meaning form is made by using the third person plural, e.g. cînt-u di amuri "it is called 'love' ~ they call it 'love'".

Uniquely among Romance languages, Atlantic has "pseudo-passive" forms which use aḍipisciri (to get, deponent) as an auxiliary verb: they are used with ditransitive verbs, and cast focus on the theme, as Atlantic being secundative means that in true passive forms it's the recipient which becomes subject. However, unlike in true passive forms, the theme is not the subject, and the verb conjugates for the (usually unstated) recipient:

• Present: aḍipiscu doṭ "it is given [to me]"
• Imperfect: aḍipisciva doṭ "it was given [to me]"
• Past: hoi aḍeut doṭ "it has been/was given [to me]"
• Pluperfect: hiva aḍeut doṭ "it was been given [to me]"
• Future: aḍeutur sungu doṭ "it will be given [to me]"
• Future perfect: aḍeutur iṭur/fuṭur sungu doṭ "it will have been given [to me]"

Compare the three forms in this examples:

• Active: Lucia deḍil Francisc dûs cuḍixis.
  Lucia (subj.) gave Francis (recip.; obj.) the books (theme; ind. obj.).
• Passive: Francisc doṭ fuch lus cuḍixis tras Lucia.
  Francis (subj.) was given the books (obj.) by Lucia (agent).
• Pseudo-passive: Lus cuḍixis hal aḍeutus doṭus Francisc tras Lucia.
  The books (synt. obj.) were given to Francis (subj.) by Lucia (agent).

In the last sentence, we can note that the auxiliary form of haviri is in the third person singular, agreeing with "Francis", while the participles are masculine plural, agreeing with "the books".

Some verbs often used in the reflexive, like the above mentioned apiri-s "to buy" (its actual object is the beneficiary, which is treated as being reflexive in the majority of cases this verb is used in, e.g. apiri-m di arpol pon "I buy [myself] some bread"), are actually ditransitive and follow the same argument pattern as dori, and are usually passivized in all three ways, with the third person plural being predominant when there's no stated agent:

• Apirunt-us di tria quilugrama di orisa. "Three kilograms of rice are bought."
• Apisiṭ fui dil pon tras mama ma. "I have been bought the bread by mom."
• Il pon hoi aḍeut apisiṭ tras mama ma. "The bread has been bought for me by mom."

Epistemic modality is expressed through the use of four invariable verbal forms, grammaticalized and heavily-worn Latin passives. In order of probability, they are cisvul (← CĒNSĒBATUR), ciul (← CĒNSĒTUR), viril (← VIDĒRĒTUR) and viol (← VIDEĀTUR):

• Lucia trubanti cisvul. "Lucy might be singing."
• Troion comiḍenti ciul. "Trajan may be eating."
• Deura durminti viril. "Deborah should be sleeping/probably sleeps."
• Cornily scinti viol. "Cornelius must know [about it]."

Syntax

Conditional sentences

Not having a conditional mood, unlike most other Romance languages, Atlantic uses the indicative or the subjunctive mood in conditional clauses. The if-clause is introduced by si:

Si vois aḍ Midran, visur iaris il Dom.
[si‿ˈvwas am‿miˈdran viˈzur ˌjaris iɮ‿ˈdɔm]
if. go.IND.PRES.2SG. to. Milan. see.PART.FUT.MASC.SG. be.IND.PRES.2SG. DEF.MASC.SG. cathedral.SG.
If you go to Milan, you'll see the Domm.

Si incharis la afa uls cent graḍus, bulyiṭura ê.

if. warm-IND.PRES.2SG. DEF.FEM.SG water.SG. beyond. one_hundred. degree-PL. boil.PART.FUT-FEM.SG. be.IND.PRES.3SG.
If you heat water over 100 degrees, it will boil.

Si iaros, lu iaruri apirceutur iaris.

if. make_a_mistake-IND.PRES.2SG DEF.NEUT.SG mistake.SG. note.PART.FUT-MASC.SG. be.IND.PRES.2SG.
If you make a mistake, you'll notice it.

Speculative conditional sentences use the past or future subjunctive in their if-clause (as in most Romance languages) and, contrary to sentences such as the above ones, the present (not the future, nor the imperfect) indicative in the main clause:

Si fussi cu fami, voḍu â jonya.
[si ˈfusi ku‿ˈfami ˈvɔðu a‿ˈdʑɔɲa]

If we'll have [enough] money, we'll buy a new car.

Past speculative conditionals use the pluperfect subjunctive in the if-clause and the past subjunctive in the main one:

Si heri sisa fussi cu fami, issi â jonya.
[si ˈçeri ˈsisa‿ˌfusi ku‿ˈfami isi a‿ˈdʑɔɲa]
if. yesterday. been.PART.PASS-FEMM.SG. be.SUBJ.PAST.1SG. with. hunger.SG go.SUBJ.PAST.1SG. to.DEF.FEMM.SG. restaurant.SG.
If yesterday I had been hungry, I'd have gone to the restaurant.

if. waited.PART.PASS.MASC.SG. have.SUBJ.PAST.3SG. see.SUBJ.PAST-1PL.SUBJ=1PL.OBJ.
If he had waited, we would have seen each other.

Reported speech

Like other Romance languages, in Atlantic references shift in reported speech: the present tense becomes an imperfect; the past becomes pluperfect; the future either remains future or becomes a future-in-the-past, formed with the future participle and the past of siḍiri.

Afiari la puarta.

Vocabulary

Days and months

The days of the week in Atlantic derive from the standard pre-Christian Roman names, including, unlike in sister languages, the name for Saturday, which still refers to Saturn:

English	Atlantic	Gender	IPA
Sunday	dominiha	f	[dɔˈminiχa]
Monday	diluni	m	[diˈluni]
Tuesday	dimarti	m	[diˈmarti]
Wednesday	dimircuri	m	[dimirˈkuri]
Thursday	dijovi	m	[diˈdʑɔvi]
Friday	diveniri	m	[diˈvɛniri]
Saturday	dissaṭurni	m	[disaˈθurni]

On the other hand, the months of the year for the most part have names that are quite different from the other Romance languages, though except for August they parallel those found in Sardinian:

English	Atlantic	Gender	IPA
January	joinori	m	[dʑwaˈnɔri]
February	firvori	m	[firˈvɔri]
March	morx	m	[ˈmɔrɔç]
April	arpili	m	[arˈpili]
May	moi	m	[mwa]
June	santjoni	m	[sanˈdʑɔni]
July	triturxuni	f	[triturˈçʉni]
August	sunxuni	f	[sunˈçʉni]
September	chafutany	n	[tɕafuˈtaɲ]
October	nurtixuni	f	[nurtiˈçʉni]
November	ommisantor	m	[ɔŋnisanˈtɔr]
December	noṭori	m	[nɔˈθɔri]

All dates are read with ordinal numerals preceded by the masculine article il (standing for il jurn "the day") followed by di plus the definite article of the month name. Thus, June 23 is il vixisim tiarx dil santjoni, August 9 is il nunim dâ sunxuni, or September 30 is il trixisim dû chafutany. In the Atlantic calendar, it has remained customary to use charenda (a retroformation from lat. Kalendæ) for the first day of the month and idus (plurale tantum, masculine unlike in Latin) for the thirteenth one (generalized also to those months whose Ides were on the fifteenth day in the Roman calendar). So for example February 1 is la charenda dil firvori and October 13 is lus idus dâ nurtixuni.

The main festivities (excluding those of other ethnic groups) in Atlantiana are the following ones, mostly related to Catholic tradition:

• los Charendos (New Year's Day - January 1)
• la Epifanya (Epiphany - January 6)
• la Risureuxuni (Easter)
  • la Paxuni (Good Friday)
  • la Dominiha dâ Risureuxuni (Easter Sunday)
• il Jurn dû Lavuri (Labour Day - May 1)
• il Jurn di Sant Joni (St. John's Day - June 24)
• la Sunxuni dâ Virgini (Assumption of Mary - August 15)
• il Jurn di Sant Ostin (St. Augustine's Day - August 28)
• il Jurn di Tuṭus lus Santus (All Saints' Day - November 1)
• il Jurn dâ Immahuroṭa Cunceuxuni (Immaculate Conception - December 8)
• il Jurn di Santa Lucia (St. Lucy's Day - December 13)
• la Noiviṭoṭi (Christmas - December 25)
• il Jurn di Sant Stefan (St. Stephen's Day - December 26)
• il Postrim dil ann (New Year's Eve - December 31)
