Adamic Code: Difference between revisions

Generally, a noun is given in the absolute state, but reformed to the construct state if case-marking is wished to be occulted. The word ''kûn'' "dog", for example, in the sentence ''kûniru'' "the dog" (<small>ABSOLUTE</small>) contains the article ''iru'' "the" attached, which emphasizes the nominative case; however, in ''kufin'' "the dog" (<small>CONSTRUCT</small>), there is no such marking, except partially by the inclusion of ''-i-'' (the first vowel of the article). This occurrs because ''kûn'' (''kúfn'', ''kúun'', et cetera) is actually interpreted as the formula ''/-//'' (''k-fn''), programmed to become ''/-/V/'' (''k-fVn''). The process may be less straightforward in other instances:

: ''(i)saíkat aru'' "philosopher" (-s-k-t-) ⇒ ''iskat'' "philosopher" (-//V/).
