===Other tenses, aspects and moods=== | |||
The preterite tense uses the suffixes -An, -Ath, -A, -Adh, -Ad, -Ar after the infinitive form. For example: | |||
pêthevæn, pêthevæth, pêthevæ, pêthevædh, pêthevæd, pêthevær | |||
lôthan, lôthath, lôtha, lôthadh, lôthad, lôthar | |||
setæn, setæth, setæ, setædh, setæd, setær | |||
The future imperfective works by removing the -n from the 1st person singular present tense and adding the suffixes -nÛch, -nÛth, -nUd, -nUth, -nUt, -nÛr? | |||
Imperfect? Future? | |||
Negative: a particle which soft mutates the verb | |||
===Nonfinite forms=== | |||
(other than the infinitive) | |||
Attributive: same as the 1SG present or past but with -n replaced by -m | |||
===Notes=== | |||
Uninflected verbs should mean something (many of them appear in the sample) | |||
==Derivational morphology== | |||
-edU/-AdU/-OdU/-tU/-^thU/-nnU/-^thU? (reflex of a hypothetical -tu/-ty in a finnish gib) | |||
-edA/-AdA/-OdA/-tA/-^thA/-nnA/-^thA? (reflex of a hypothetical -ta/-tä in a finnish gib) | |||
''-ze-'' (after thematic verbs); ''-ize-'' (after athematic verbs): passive | |||
==Numbers== | |||
oz, cîn, synn, raed, lîth, rœ̂v, fælinn, sŷtheb, rôtheb, ûth | |||
ûthoz, ûthcîn, ûthsynn, ûthraed ... | |||
pecher (20), synnœt (30), raedhot (40), lîthœt (50), rœ̂vœt (60), fælinœt (70), sŷthvot (80), rôthvot (90), tæez (100) | |||
==Miscellaneous ideas== | |||
A Wackernagel-like law (with particles such as conjunctions generally appearing in second position, like Latin ''enim'') is a Hothenese innovation (neither the parent language Ryctiac nor another descendant of it, Rhythoed, has it) | |||
