Felikitok

We are forming a creole language out of the languages of Europe with our own rules and conventions. This page is under construction as the language evolves and progresses; it is meant as English documentation of the language and is freely editable by all involved.

Note: All example that require verbs use the verb likar ("to like").

Agreed-upon features

• Nouns are pluralised with -s.
• Verbs only inflect for number and tense, although possibly also the imperative mood.
• Unless a modal verb is used, the pronoun is usually appended to the end of the verb, connected with a hyphen.
• The past tense is formed thus: "Ai havr likata".
• All adverbs should end in -mente.
• Words with the same meaning but different etymologies may be used together if hyphenated; generally only the last one is inflected.
• All words should be stripped of diacritics as much as possible when entering Felikitok; ASCII should always suffice.

Agreed-upon basic vocabulary

• Ab means "of", but is only used before a vowel; otherwise a' is appended before the following noun.
• Esr is the copula, although existar can be used in certain circumstances.

Pronouns

• Ai - 1st person singular
• Au - 2nd person singular
• Ilon - 3rd person singular
• Wi - 1st person plural
• Iw - 2nd person plural (vos is also used)

Disputed features
