+'''{{SUBPAGENAME}}''' (English: /koʊ/, natively ''lees ndoigh Komh'' /li noi kɔ/ (TBA: tone)) is a language spoken in [[Bjeheond]]; as a [[Hlou-Shum languages|Hlou-Shum language]], it's related to [[Hlou]]. It is a monosyllabic tonal language inspired by Hmong, Irish, Manx, and English. Like Irish, Ko has initial consonant mutations.
 ==Todo==
+Motivation: "Sinospheric Irish" or "Hmoob read by an Irish speaker"
+*Explain: lexical mutation in Hlou, grammatical mutation in Ko
+**Hlou lexical mutation could have arisen from a grammatical mutation system where the particles fell away
+*''dor'' = to be born ~ Hlou ''Ndol'' 'person'
+*TODO: kl gl sk > q
+*bach = small, meer = big
+*hleubh = to love (hlub means "to love" in Hmong)
+*kein = archaic negative word
+*ein = emphasis/'rather'
+*koobh = good
+*cu = copper
 ==Phonology==
-{{SUBPAGENAME}} has fewer initials and fewer vowels than [[Hlou]], but more tones.
+{{SUBPAGENAME}} has fewer initials than [[Hlou]], due to initial mutations.

 ===Tones===
-tones: (tone letters should correspond to Hlou tones)
+tones:
+*-Ø: mid level
+*-ch: glottal stop final
+*-s: low falling
+*-r: low rising
+*-gh: low breathy
+*-mh: creaky
+*-bh: mid rising
+*-dh: high falling
+*-n: high level
+==Grammar==
+Ko is SVO and head-initial. Mutations often operate on a syntactic basis.
+===Nouns===
+plural word: ''yoo-L'' (placed after classifier but before noun)
+===Pronouns===
+*xan = I
+*çeedh = you
+===Classifiers===
+Classifiers were historically a very open class. They always eclipse the following noun.
+''lu'', ''tzagh'', ''hņoobh'', ''lees'', ''çua'', ''yaus'', ...
+*lu = humans, gods
+**''faon'' = a man; ''lu nfaon'' = the man (classifier ''lu'')
+*tçagh = animals, demons
+**''plaidh'' = a dog; ''tçagh nplaidh'' = the dog (classifier ''tçagh'')
+**''tçagh Nja Ber Woch'' = a demon in Ko mythology
+*hņoobh = tall objects such as trees, buildings
+**''qo'' = a tree; ''hņoobh nqo'' the tree
+*çua: infinitive
+**''dor'' = is born; ''çua ndor'' = to be born (inf.)
+*''lobh'': food, edible plants
+*''zail'': inedible plants
+*lees = nominalization, way of X-ing
+**''doigh'' = 'to speak'; ''lees ndoigh'' 'language'
+*In archaic language: fancy apparently ad-hoc classifiers for different animals and fruits (cf. English ''murder of crows'' except "murder" is a classifier)
+===Verbs===
+ba = subjunctive marker
-''-0 -b -d -g -s -m -r -bh -dh -gh -mh''
+''Ba fhaomh-saigh le çeedh'' = If you like it
-These tones come in pairs:
+==Sample text==
-*''-b -d -g -m''
+===Tower of Babel===
-*''-bh -dh -gh -mh''
+:''Pugh çedh yaus nqar ņiamh tso txuabh çhaor aon lees ndoigh kiabh aon lees ntlair.''
-** ~ Hlou tones ''-b, -d, -g, -n''
+:CONJ in CLF world whole PST give only one CLF language and one CLF speak
+:And in the whole world there was one language and one way of speaking.
-"Entering" tones:
+:''Roomh lu yoo las jhugh dle [hyoch mhar], [ka nfemh] re txuabh tçhaoch ibh yaus [njo qiagh] Xi-Na, pugh re txuabh cheich hmoi nblaun.''
-*''-0 -s -r''
+:when CLF PL person travel eastward then
-** ~ Hlou tones ''-0, -s/-ß, -l''
+:As the people moved eastward...
