Koinean is a brief sketchlang, attempting to take the growing non-configurationality of vernacular Korean and extend it to the level of Koiné/Attic Greek.  While Ancient Greek could match distant words by Case/Number/Gender, Koinean matches by Case/Honor/Class.  The verb inflectional structure is as big as a λυω chart.  It is written in the polytonic Greek alphabet, and requires the extension of Unicode by combining characters to write upsilons with iota subscript.  It is also meant as an instructional aide to Korean in learning NT Greek.
 
<!--
 
This is a short reminder of the language format policy.
 
I. Write a short piece stating your intents and purposes when creating the language (Design goal, inspiration, ideas, and so on).
II. Write a short introduction to your language. (Who speaks it? When was it created? By whom? or what? are some example questions that can be answered here)
III. Once done, try making sure everything is properly spelt so as to avoid unnecessary reader fatigue.
