''' | '''Tsan''', or '''tsani tsúyi''', pronounced [t͡sɑ̃ʔɪ t͡suβ̞ʝɪ], belongs to the Tanisi language family and is thus distantly related to the [[Ris]] language. It is also known as '''kándini yutsúyi''', "language of the Strong Ones". | ||
Tsani is a heavily [[w:agglutinative language|agglutinating]] with a complex verbal morphology. The language has repeatedly been analysed as lacking [[w:nouns|nouns]] and [[w:adjectives|adjectives]] altogether, in favour of [[w:verb|verb]]s. Phonologically it exhibits [[w:prenasalised consonants|prenasalised consonants]], realised as nasal clusters or voiced consonants in different dialects. | Tsani is a heavily [[w:agglutinative language|agglutinating]] with a complex verbal morphology.
