'''Fásriyya''' (also ''Faṣriyya'') is an a priori naturalistic artlang, which takes inspiration from, amongst others, Old Japanese, Chinese, the Semitic languages, and Classical Nahuatl.  It is spoken in the world of Avríd (also home to the Aeranid languages, such as Tevrés) by the Fassermen (native ''fásrí’íín'') of the nation of Fasser (native ''fásr'').  It is a member of the Central-Haïdic language family, ultimately descending from Proto-Common-Haïdic.

=== Prepositions ===
=== Prepositions ===
Prepositions can be classified into two groups; conjugating and non-conjugating.  This may be somewhat a misnomer, as even non-conjugating prepositions may take suffix conjugation when they are used with a personal pronoun, but this is not considered true conjugation.  Conjugating pronouns conjugate to match the main subject of a sentence.
