Unusually for a Cualand language, the syntax has very little influence from English; the reverse sometimes happens -- the English of Netagin speakers uses fronting and constructions like "verb an adjective verb-ing" and "to where are you?/where are you to?" ("where are you going?") more than Standard English. This makes Netagin English generally sound "poetic" or "fancy" to other Cualanders and is even considered prestigious in some parts of Cualand. | Unusually for a Cualand language, the syntax has very little influence from English; the reverse sometimes happens -- the English of Netagin speakers uses fronting and constructions like "verb an adjective verb-ing" and "to where are you?/where are you to?"
