One of the main goals of the language was to experiment with having few to no declensions in a language tending to isolation and analytical morphosyntax. Of course some remnants of an older system remain, so it is not purely one thing or the other, but denotes a state of flux in the language continuum. In comparison to other conlangs of mine it is quite light in declension, only having a marked accusative. | One of the main goals of the language was to experiment with having few to no declensions in a language tending to isolation and analytical morphosyntax.

Other characteristics are meant to set it apart from common western european languages, such as the use of prefixes for derivation and the use of postpositions being preferred. | ||
