'''Kamatarna''' was sparked by a mention in Tolkien's ''The Monsters and the Critics'' about how he overheard a man deciding he would "''mark the accusative with a prefix''", so I ran with the idea. The language is pretty consistently CVCV and marks cases with prefixes rather than suffixes. | '''Kamatarna''' was sparked by a mention in Tolkien's ''The Monsters and the Critics'' about how he overheard a man deciding he would "''mark the accusative with a prefix''", so I ran with the idea. The language is pretty consistently CVCV and marks cases with prefixes rather than suffixes. Some words have the shape CVCCV arising from a contraction of one syllable in a previous stage CVCVCV. | ||
