Pitch-Accent

Primary stress^[*] is realised with an increase in the pitch^[*], while secondary stress has a decrease in the pitch.

Primary and secondary stress are both predictable accoridng to these rules and Primary stress always goes before secondary, that is if primary stress and secondary stress were to overlap the primary stress will be the one that is realised.

Phonotactics

The syllable structure is decently complex where the onset^[*], the consonants prior to the vowel, and the coda^[*], consonants after the vowel, both can take two consonants. The onset and coda acts both independed of each other and can take the following forms.

The umbrean verbs are conjugated for tense, aspect, mood and voice mainly. There is a residual conjugation for person and the grammatical gender of items but much of it has been lost. The conjugation is done by a primary vowel first followed by some sounds. The primary vowel is depended on which tense, mood and which gender and or person of the subject, agent or object noun is, which of the three depends on the verb.. The vowel comes in three classes, First, Second and Third kind. The vowel table tells which vowel is used while the Voice-Aspect-Tense, VAT, table tells which set to use on which VAT combination along with the remaining sounds around.

Negation:

Negation is done though the VAT vowel, it changes from the +, positive or affirmative coloumn, to the -, negative or negation coloumn of the same sort along with agreeing like the vowel normally is.

Mood

The mood is conjugated both on the VAT vowel but also on the very stem itself, how depends on the mood.

Reversed Voicing
bw	↔	pj	ǧ	↔	ǧ
ǧw	↔	ǧw	ǧǧ	↔	ǧǧ

Reversed voicing is done to all consonants but nasals and laterals, only oddities is in the list

Circumstantial Voice

The circumstantial voice is the oddball of the voices, to mark it one has to first mark it on the verb but it requires the postposition it is forcing into the subject position to act as a particle infront of the verb itself with some modifications. The modification is depended upon which case one would use with the postposition

Pst	(ë)lj- PP
Int	(ë)lj- PP -i
Erg	(ë)lj- PP -u
Acc	(ë)lj- PP -a

the initial ë disappears if it begins with a vowel.

Participle

Adjectival

In umbrean participles serves three purposes, the first one is similar to english where it takes on an adjective characteristic describing a noun, "The walking man", but with the differens of having one for every tense.

The second is for relative clauses, "The man whom I like" where the verb is turned into a participle but the sentence itself remains otherwise the same, and is like unlike english placed infront of the noun it describes.

And thirdly they are used to modify the verb in the phrase.

To get the subject or object back into the clause one uses the Postpositions Kwë and Tlë, both highly irregular, before the participle with the noun in their proper case.

Active voice cannot be used in participles.

To form a participle the conjugated verb is taken with the addition of a vowel which is depended on the tense in question and a consonant which depends on the gender of the subject that is being relativized, doesn't matter which of the two uses, and the voice in question.

Adverbial

The adverbial participle is formed in a similar manner to the adjectival participle but there are differenses.

The verb is conjugated but the VAT vowel is replaced with a different set. and the ending changes only according to the voice.

	Indicative		Optative		Subjunctive
	+	-	+	-	+	-
V₁	-e	-üü	-ii	-u	-o	-ee
V₂	-e	-aa	-yy	-i	-ë	-öö
V₃	-ë	-ö	-e	-ii	-o	-a

	+	-
Passive	-yn	-aam
Anti-passive	-im	-ën
Circumstantial	-yŋ	-iiŋ

The adverbial participle can be used in several manners and each manner usually requires a specific set of tempuses to be used

Causual
- H. Causum or Causum is used
- Answers "Why?" the verb occures
Temporal
- Present, Aortis & Futurum is used
- Answers "When" The verb happened
Locational
- Ingressus, Pausa & Futurum Termius
- Answers where it occured.
Manner
- Present is used alone, is always contemporary.
- Answers "how" a verb was done.
Result
- Consequentum or F. Consequenta is used
- Tells what outcome the verb has.
Concession
- Ingressus, Present & Initio
- The verb happened despite the action or state of the participle.

Supine

The supine describes actions done for the purpose of something ora result of the action. In english it is often the infitive form of the verb, "We walked over to Ronald To help him".

Supines don't take conjugational affixation but rather these to mark positive or negative, to do or not to do it.

Positive	Negative
-lii	-lüü

Gerund

The gerund form of the verbs are used to create noun clauses similar to english "That" clauses. "I know that he is a nice guy"

The gerund is formed by adding these endings to the conjugated form and is depended on case and the polarity of the verb.

Modal Forms

Umbrean verbs can take on 8 modal forms which is used for both modality purposes as a verb but can also function as adjectives on their own.

Verb form

The verb form is used along as any normal verb, the positive form and negative form refers to the polarity of the modality. While there is general derivation of each of the three forms some verbs do not follow it and have other forms in the quadrouplet. This infix is often placed between the vowel and the final consonants in the last syllable of the root.

Adjectival form

The adjectival form works as the name itself suggests like an adjective, the suffixes are put onto the verb and then treated like a normal adjective that has to take on adjectival affixes. The anti-passive form focuses on the subject while the passive one focuses on the object.

Adjectival Modality
	Verb form		Adjective Form
	Positive	Negative	Passive	Anti-passive
Base	-Ø	-žžw(y)¹- -ššw(y)¹-	-	-
Gerundive	-ssj(o)- -zzj(o)-	-dzw(ëë)- -tsw(ëë)-
Abilitative	-v(e)- -f(e)-	-p(u)- -b(u)-
Hypothetical	-nj(y)-	-m(üü)-

Gerundive: Marks that the noun it modifies is needs or ought to be the object or subject of the verb
Abilative: Marks that the noun it modifies is can or is able to be the object or subject of the verb
Hypothetical: Marks that the noun it modifies could be the object or subject of the verb

¹ vowels are omitable if the phonotactic allows it

Sequence of tenses

Umbrean uses Relative Tenses^[*] meaning subclauses are put into present tense if they happened at the sametime as the main verb, past if it occured before the verb and future if it occured after the main verb.

Nominalization

Ditransitive Verbs

For more information on Ditransitive verbs see Umbrean/Ditransitive verbs

Ditransitive Verbs^[*] in the umbrean language are arranged in the fashion of O₁SO₂V. The first object is the recipient, direct object, and the second object is the theme (indirect object) and the Subject is the Donor.

English Examples: "I give him a book" vs "I gave a book to him", "He asked me a question" vs "He asked a question to me"

Donor: The donor is the one that does verb, in case of the verb "give" it gives something. "I gave him a book" "He asked me a question."

Theme: The theme is the object which is transferred or undergoing the verb directly, like a book in giving. "I gave him a book" ""He asked me a question"

Recipient: The recipient recieves the Theme in some manner in an indirect manner, it is common for the recipient to be said by a prepositional phrase in english. "I gave him a book" "He asked me a question".

Cases

The donor takes on the Ergative case, Theme takes the accusative case and Recipient takes on postpositional case.

Nouns

Declension

Umbrean nouns are declined according to 4 things, Gender (Magical, Living, Articial and Non-moving), Case (Intransitive, Ergative, Accusative And Postpositional), State (Indefinate, Definate, Constructive) and Number (Plural, Singular and Paucal).

Suffixes are used to mark the declension and the declension paradigms differs mostly by vowels and are hence named after the 3 main vowels that are changed within the given paradigm.

Case		Desription:
Ergative	Ref	The grammatical case that identifies the subject of a transitive verb in ergative-absolutive languages
Accusative	Acc	The grammatical case used to mark the direct object of an transitive verb
Intransitive	Int	The grammatical case used in some languages to mark the subject of an transitive verb
Postpositional	Pst	The grammatical case primarely used for postpositional phrases

Possession

For more information on Possession see Umbrean/Possession

In umbrean the possession of something differ on wether it is alienable or inalienable possession.

Alienable possession refer to a possession that can change in the course of time, a coin can switch owners over time and hence is alienable. In alienable possession the noun that is possessed, the coin in "my coin" is put into construct state while the possessor, me/my, is in ordinary indefinate state, both having the same case to match their grammatical position.

Inalienable possession refer to possession that is static through time, your arm will always be your arm, parents will always be parents even if disowned. In this case both are in indefiniate state but the same case.

In both cases the possessed comes before the possessor in the word order.

Postposition

For more information on Postpositions see Umbrean/Postpositions

Being a head final language the Umbrean language utilizes postpositions rather than prepositions and adpositional phrases would come before the noun. "On the table" would be said as"The table on" and a noun phrase like "The cat on the table" is said "The table on the cat", in an essence the opposite of english. Similar to greek and other languages the case of the noun that is within its phrase affects often the acctual meaning of the postposition.

Postpositions are inflected according to Gender and Case of the noun within its phrase, if it is first or second person it is inflected according to the living gender.

If the postposition does not get an inflection on it, it is a particle used for the circumtational voice for verbs.

Deixis, Proforms & Anaphora

Umbrean Deixis^[*], anaphora or pro-forms, are numerous and quite sensitive to alot of grammar and pragmatic situations.

Determiner^[*]: They occure before the noun and refers to the noun somehow. "This hat" "That hat" "Some hats"

Demonstratives: These are diectic in their nature, refers to a noun by context. "This hat" "That hat" "yon hat" "This is fun" "That was fun"

Quantifiers: These refer to most often an unfixed quantity, with the exception of "All" or "no", "All men" "no men" "Some men" "few men"

Quantifiers
Quantifier	English
Elective	Any Whichever
Existensial	Some
Universal	All Every
Most	Most
Negative	No None
Collective	as a group Togather
Distrubutive	Each individually Each Each on their own

Discourse

Discourse Deixis are used to refer to entire segments of an utterence or even the utterence itself. Examples, "This is fun", "That way of looking at it is wrong"

Mlje: That, a segment that was mentioned prior to now
Mle: This, Refers to the utterence itself
Mlwe: This, refers to a segment that is about to be uttered or will be in a short time

Mlwe may be used to mark objects, like a demonstratives, that one is about to explain. "Walking I saw this dog"

Interrogative

Interogative forms are used to ask for questions. While english makes no distinction between Determiner form, what animal ate those?, and Pro-noun form, What fell on him?, Umbrean does and heavily so.

Interrogative Determiner

These are the determiner forms, Magical and Living gender, along with Artificial and Non-moving, have identical forms within their own gender due and it changes according to number and case.

Gender mixture

Umbrean does not allow gender mix in the singular forms ever. One cannot say like "this hat and dog" to mean this for both the dog and the hat as they are different genders. In paucal magic and livinng can be used togather and artificial and non-moving can be togather, but those two groups cannot be used togather. In plural gender matters none and it can mix togather.

The gender of the deixis is picked by the closest word or the one wishes to focus on more.

Personal Pronouns

Umbrean pronouns makes distinctions according to the 5 cases, 3 numbers, 4 genders, T-V^[*], Collective vs Distributive and Inclusive vs exclusive.

Cases: Intransitive, Ergative, Accusative, Postpositional and Reflexive

Numbers: Singular, Paucal and Plural, Same number must be used as the noun that it replaces.

Genders: The genders are noticible only in third person where the pronoun with a gender matching the noun it replaces must be used.

T-V: This distinction is a politeness distinction that only occures in second person, One is polite that is used to be polite or people of higher rank while the other is impolite, lower ranking or someone you are close to.

Coll vs Distr: This distinction only occures in Paucal and Plural and tells if the group did it individually (Distributive) or as a group (Collective). "The five of us ate 3 kg of apples togather" (No more than 3 kg was used, Collective) vs "The five of us ate 3 kg of apples each" (A grand total of 15 kg of apples were eaten then, Distributive)

Inclusive vs Exclusive: Occures only in first person paucal and plural where it distinguisher if the one spoken to, second person, is included (Inclusive) or not (Eclusive)

Noun Predicate

Example: He is an idiot

This is achived by putting the noun into intransitive construction state and then use it as an ordinary verb.

mǧö mtomöökwlë

mǧö mto>möökw<l-ë

2.sg <acc.const.sg>Idiot-1/2.sg.ind.prs.ctn

You're an idiot

Adpositional Predicate

Example: We are with him

Adpositional predicates are constructed by taking the adposition and add the proper Circumfix and then use it as a verb where the object that was being modified by it is the agent while the object in the adpositional phrase is treated as an ordinary object. the ë in the ëlj- prefix is ommited if the postposition begins with a vowel.

Case	Prefix
Int	(ë)lj- -tatl
Erg	(ë)lj- -satl
Acc	(ë)lj- -matl
Pst	(ë)lj- -atl

mǧö mtomöökwlë

mǧö mto>möökw<l-ë

2.sg <acc.const.sg>Idiot-1/2.sg.ind.prs.ctn

You're an idiot

Locative Predicate

Example: We are at the store

See Adpositional Predicate

Adjectival Predicate

Example: We are blue

Adjectival predicates are achived through using the adjective as a verb all on its own but replaces the last consonant with -tl
