| ==Grammar==
| |
| ===Nouns===
| |
| Proto-Azalic had a highly eroded case system. The notation (i) denotes "i-umlaut" or a j-offglide on the nucleus.
| |
| | |
| *dir. -0, (i)
| |
| *voc. (i), (i)
| |
| *obl. (i), -su
| |
| *gen. -s, (i)-s
| |
| *lat. -ther, (no pl)
| |
| | |
| ===Adjectives===
| |
| Adjectives were uninflected, because they were split off from adjective-noun compounds.
| |
| ===Verbs===
| |
| Verb tenses were relatively complex, but the personal affixes were restructured.
| |
| | |
| the pronouns are the usual English ones plus *swe
| |
| | |
| when the subject is nominal singular, "he", "she" or "it", the "swe" is required for verbal agreement
| |
| | |
| the 2sg and 3sg distal pronouns are number neutral so they don't need *swe
| |
| | |
| *Imperfective (the source of the English nonpast): e-grade or otherwise the unmarked form of the verb
| |
| *Perfective (the source of the English past): o-grade or -d from -tós
| |
| *Aorist: sigmatic aorist
| |
| *Future: sigmatic future
| |
| *Active participle: -ent
| |
| *Passive participle: zero-grade with -n from -nós, or -d from -tós
