== Alphabet == | == Alphabet == | ||
Before the Unitɪx people were conquered, the traditional alphabet was used in all regions. Unitɪxscan was always maintained but the alphabet changed through influence from the Roman SPQR (South) and later Russia through russification during Russian expansion and the Soviet Union (East). | |||
Now, any of the three alphabets are used but official documents, street signs, advertisements, and other public objects use the traditional alphabet. | |||

=====Syllable Structure===== | |||
Unitɪscian’s syllable structure rule is the following: [C/S]AND[V/D] OR [V/D]AND[C/S]. This means that all words must consist of a consonant and vowel/diphthong in any order. | |||
There are no 1-letter words, 2-vowel letter words, or 2-consonant letter words in Unitɪx. Any: | |||
C = Consonant, including liquids (/l/, /r/) | |||
S = Semivowel (/w/, /j/…) | |||
V = Vowel | |||
D = Diphthong | |||
All unitix plosives (stops) are unaspirated. /v/ will always be used between two vowels and /b/ will usually only start a word. | All unitix plosives (stops) are unaspirated. /v/ will always be used between two vowels and /b/ will usually only start a word. | ||
The <x> is pronounced like an /h/ in english but velar NOT like /ks/. | The <x> is pronounced like an /h/ in english but velar NOT like /ks/. | ||
Ex. | Ex. Унітих = Unitɪh | ||
=====Clusters===== | |||
In Unitɪx, consonant clusters show that plosives do not go with fricatives | |||
They additionally don’t go with Glides (Semi-vowels), liquids, Trills, and Nasals | |||
YES: Кла, Пра, | |||
NO: Тпа, Ква | |||
( | : (tongue blade ([t], [d]) or body ([k], [ɡ]), lips ([p], [b]), or glottis ([ʔ]) | ||
Glides: (/iː uː/, /j w/) | |||
Liquids: (/l/, /ʎ/, /r/ (Рускъа: /lʲ/ /rʲ/ /l/ /r/)) | |||
Trills: /r/ | |||
Nasals: /m/ /n/ | |||
=====Letter Changes===== | |||
Unitɪxscan letters vаry throughout the regions. All the vowels do not change whether they are unstressed or stressed. | |||
East - uses /ɨ/ instead of /ɪ/ for the letter ы in the Unitɪxscan alphabet. | |||
Traditional - uses /ɪ/ instead of /ɨ/ for the letter и in the Unitɪxscan alphabet. | |||
South - Only has 5 vowels. They use the same letter for /ɨ/-/ɪ/-/i/ | |||
======Diphthongs====== | |||
Unitɪx has unique letters that signify diphthongs (all using the letter /i/) which are: | |||
ya (я), ye (є), yi (ї), yy (ÿ), yo (R), yu (ю) | |||
These diphthongs became letters because, in the Unitɪxscan orthography, these are viewed as one character due to their abundance. | |||

== Nouns == | == Nouns == | ||
Nouns in Unitɪx decline and have three genders, a feature unusual to most languages but familiar to speakers of Slavic languages. There is an animacy distinction. Animate nouns include people, animals (including bugs and bacteria), and most creatures that exhibit movement or sentience. Inanimate nouns are everything else, including natural features that move (such as waves, wind, or eyes). All neuter nouns are inanimate but masculine and feminine nouns can be both animate or inanimate. | |||
=== Special Rules for Nouns === | === Special Rules for Nouns === | ||
==== | ==== How to use the Cases ==== | ||
# Nominative: Subject, Predicate Nom. | |||
# Genitive: Possession/Prepositions: д/до(to) з/зі(from) | |||
# Dative: I.O./Prepositions: к/ко(to) | |||
# Accusative: D.O./Prepositions: дя(for) | |||
# Instrumental: Means/Instrument/Prepositions: с/со(with) під(under) нід(on) за(behind) | |||
# Locative: Location/Preposition: ву(in) на(on) | |||
# Vocative: Direct Speech | |||
There are two ways to have endings for prepositions: | |||
1: Use the prepositional (now also the instrumental) case with any preposition | |||
2: Locative case is used for in/on/at, and the Instrumental case is used for “manner or means/instrument”. Other prepositions like “about” will usually take the accusative | |||
==== | ==== Prepositions ==== | ||
All prepositions are connected with the word that succeeds it. It can be connected with adjectives or nouns. Whichever comes first. | |||
Additionally, when the instrumental case is used without any preposition, the prepositon "со" or "with" is always inferred. The use is optional. | |||
