The Adamic Code mostly functions through patterns, or the configuration of vowels next to consonantal roots. Among these patterns, there are the old ones (referred to as Prediluvian Patterns) and the new ones (Postdiluvian Patterns), based on the grammatical structure of the [[Pangaean Code|Pangaean]] and [[Diluvian Code|Diluvian]] Codes respectively. | The Adamic Code mostly functions through patterns, or the configuration of vowels next to consonantal roots.
