Nostratic

Indo-Semito-Camalic, sometimes referred to as Noahic, is a proposed family conjectured by some Lõisian linguists, including the Indo-European, Semitic, Egyptian and Camalic languages.

A comprehensive Proto-Indo-Semito-Camalic grammar, including a few fables, was sketched by the linguist and doctor [name]. He also proposed two older macrofamilies linking:

• Paleo-Iranian languages, Corded Ware languages and Harappan; and
• Sumerian, Tbaic and South Indian languages.

Though they are not taken seriously by contemporary linguists, they influenced [conlanger]'s Elvish languages.

Phonology

Two series of stops (a third, ejective series was created from clusters with glottal stops)

Grammar

Proto-Indo-Semito-Camalic didn't have grammatical gender; gender evolved separately in the three branches.

Verbs had prefix conjugations and suffix conjugations like PSem or Lõisian PIE.
