The '''Quame languages''' ([[Eevo]]: ''brits Cłem'', from ''*kʷēm-'', the reconstructed word for 1), also known as '''Naquo-Talmic''', are a language family in [[Verse:Tricin|Tricin]]. It is well-established that that [[Naquic languages|Naquic]] and [[Talmic languages|Talmic]] form a Naquo-Talmic family; the relationship of [[Sowaár]] to Naquo-Talmic is conjectured by some but not well-established.

The Quame urheimat is surmised to be somewhere in Etalocin (the union of Clofabolocin and [[Verse:Tricin/Dodellia|Dodellia]]).

The basic word order was V2, modifier-modified.
Somewhat like German, Proto-Quame was a fusional language in which nouns, adjectives and articles inflected for four cases, three genders, and two numbers, and definiteness. The basic word order was V2, modifier-modified.


Proto-Quame roots were monosyllabic and obeyed the sonority hierarchy.

Much like in PIE, PQ had an ablaut system where roots (usually of 2 or 3 consonants) were inflected in different ablaut grades.

===Nominals===
===Declension===
Nouns and adjectives had:
Nouns, articles and adjectives had:
* two genders: animate, inanimate.
* three genders: masculine, feminine, neuter
** There were also honorific forms which worked like a gender somewhat. The honorific turns into a feminine in [[Talmic languages|Talmic]], meanwhile animate and inanimate become masculine and neuter.
* four cases: nominative, accusative, dative, and genitive
* two states: absolute and construct.
** Some speculate that Proto-Quame originally had an intransitive-transitive alignment. The nominative and accusative may have originally been intransitive and transitive cases respectively, since stative verbs in the 3rd person singular have nominative endings, while eventive verbs in the 3rd person singular have endings similar to accusative endings.
* three cases: nominative, accusative, and genitive.
* two numbers: singular and plural.  
* two numbers: singular and plural. There was also a third number, the collective, formed by reduplication of the first syllable.
** Some nouns had broken plurals formed by reduplicating of the first syllable or using a different ablaut grade. The broken plural used singular affixes.
 
* for adjectives: strong and weak declensions, as in Proto-Germanic.
Some nouns had plurals in a different ablaut grade.

{{Thensarian-n-decl|means=tree|māram||mārīs|mārae||mārini|māria|''-''|māribos|mārebim|''-''|māroes|}}
=====Strong declension=====
(similar but not exactly the same endings as the definite article)
=====Weak declension=====
(a lot of redundancy; nom. def. -t > def. -tł in Naquian, const. state *-t in Talmic)


=====i-stems=====
The weak declension was the form used with definite articles.
=====u-stems=====
=====x̌-stems (honorific stems)=====
=====r/s-stems=====


====Inanimate nouns====
The construct state (possessed noun in genitive phrases) was indicated by a weak declension noun that was ''not'' preceded by the definite article.
=====Heteroclitic stems=====
*''tekts'' = a child (nom.)
=====a-stems=====
*''hans tektat'' = the child (nom.)
