| 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.

| |
| ==Morphology==
| |
| | |
| ===Nouns===
| |
| | |
| Nouns have the following cases:
| |
| {| class="wikitable"
| |
| |-
| |
| ! ''Spahr'' 'horse' !! Singular !! Plural
| |
| |-
| |
| | Nominative || Spahr || Spahrlich
| |
| |-
| |
| | Genitive || Spährer || Spahrlicher
| |
| |-
| |
| | Accusative || Spahren || Spahrlichen
| |
| |-
| |
| | Dative || Spahrens || Spahrlichens
| |
| |-
| |
| | Locative || Spahrs || Spahrliches
| |
| |-
| |
| | Ablative || Spährung || Spahrlichung
| |

| |
| |-
| |
| | Equative || Spährte || Spahrlichte
| |
| |-
| |
| | Translative || Spährtens || Spahrlichtens
| |
| |}
| |
| The locative ending -s becomes -es after sibilants. The same case endings can be add to nouns ending in -e in the nominative, except that -ee- and -eu- changes to -e- and -u- respectively, and the syllable before the -e umlauts.
| |
| | |
| ===Pronouns===

| |-
| |

| |
| |-
| |
| | 3 (proximate)|| teck|| tecklich
| |
| |-
| |
| | 3 (obviative)|| zick|| zicklich
| |
| |}
