 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]]).

 ====Nouns====
-Naquian generalized the weak declension, while Talmic generalized the strong one.
 =====Strong declension=====
 (similar but not exactly the same endings as the definite article)
 =====Weak declension=====
-(a lot of -t's > -tł in Naquian and const. state in Talmic?)
+(a lot of redundancy; nom. def. -t > def. -tł in Naquian, const. state *-t in Talmic)
 The weak declension was the form used with definite articles.
-When the weak declension was ''not'' preceded by the definite article, it indicated construct state.
+The construct state (possessed noun in genitive phrases) was indicated by a weak declension noun that was ''not'' preceded by the definite article.
+*''tekts'' = a child (nom.)
+*''hans tektat'' = the child (nom.)
+*''hī hrondīn tektat'' or ''tektat hī hrondīn'' = the man's child (nom.)
