Notes

General

  1. Danterian word order is almost always SOV.
  2. Adjectives usually modify the phrase directly after them, unless they are the object of a verb.
  3. Pronouns come in the rational & non-rational genders (abbvd. R & NR), the former of which includes humans, mythical figures, and some machines, while the latter includes everything else.
  4. Certain words, particularly participles/gerunds here, act as "adnouns" which behave either like an adjective or noun depending on the context.

Inline
