grammar should be a lot more Austronesian than Talman

===Phonotactics===
Häskä allows initial clusters, like [[Windermere]] and [[Tsrovesh]].


==Morphology==
==Morphology==
Häskä morphology is roughly equally prefixing and suffixing.
===Nouns===
===Nouns===
Häska nouns are either masculine or feminine. Nouns denoting females or that end in the feminine marker ''-i'' or ''-s'' (from Proto-Lakovic *-s) are feminine. Inanimate nouns, and animals without dedicated words for males and females, can be used in both genders interchangeably.
Häskä nouns have a natural gender system. Nouns denoting females or that end in the feminine suffix ''-o'' (after C) or ''-s'' (after V) are feminine. Inanimate nouns, and animals that are not dedicated words for males and females, can be used in both genders interchangeably.


Classical Häskä: Austronesian alignment?
====Plurals====
Unusually for a Lakovic language, plurals are formed with a suffix ''-k'' or ''-äk'':
*''sumät'' /sumæt/ = wind
**''sumätäk'' /sumætæk/ = winds
If the word is treated as feminine:
*''sumäto'' /sumæto/ = wind
**''sumätok'' /sumætok/ = winds


Modern Häskä number markers:  
====Case markers====
*'''' = singular
Here are the basic case markers:
*''ma'' = plural
 
*''hän'' = collective
*''id, i'' = nominative
*''u'' = accusative
*'''' = genitive
*''mi'' = locative
*''žə'' = "like"


===Pronouns===
===Pronouns===
*''ri'' = I
*''ri'' = I
*''šän'' = thou (m)
*''šen'' = thou (m)
*''šäs'' = thou (f)
*''šes'' = thou (f)
*''fin'' = he
*''fin'' = he
*''fis'' = she
*''fis'' = she
*''bäñ'' = we two (inc.)
*''nə-ri'' etc. = plural pronouns


===Verbs===
===Verbs===
Häskä verbs are highly inflected; they inflect for tense, aspect, voice, mood, and gender agreement.

Verb template: gender/mood-tense/aspect-{{angbr|voice}}ROOT
Verb template: negative-gender/mood-tense/aspect-{{angbr|voice}}ROOT-pluractional
====Gender====
*''hə-'' = feminine
 
====Mood====
*''ku-'' = cohortative
 
====Aspect====
Aspect inflection uses a combination of prefixes and reduplication.
 
Reduplicant uses 1st consonant (''F'') or last consonant (''L'')
*imperfective/stative = unmarked
*perfective = unmarked for some verbs but marked with ''em-'' for others
*prospective = ''hef-'' (closest equivalent of future tense)
*momentane = ''bla-''
*progressive = ''ăL-''
*gnomic = ''FăL-''
*frequentative = ''eNFă-''
*inchoative/inceptive = ''oLă-''
*graduative = ''tăFa-''
 
====Intensive====
*''twə-'' = intensive prefix


====Voice affixes====
Verbs are negated with ''di-''.
Voice affixes are obsolete in Rhythoed.
*''‹ăc›'' = Dynamic passive
*''‹ră›'', ''‹wă›'' = Stative passive
*''‹ăb›'' = Reflexive
*''‹ăn/ăng›'' = Applicative trigger
*''‹ith›'' = Locative trigger
*''‹ăw›'' = Instrumental trigger
*''‹ăfong›'' = Destination trigger
*''‹ălis›'' = Comitative trigger
*''‹ăm›'' = Source/cause trigger
*''‹ăchem›'' = Benefactive/purpose trigger
*''‹ărea›'' = Malefactive trigger
