'''Vornian''' (''a joaþ Voainjŵ'' /ə joaθ ˈvoainjuː/; Skellan: ''Vornib'') is a minority Tigolic language spoken in the Vorna Island of [[Verse:Tricin/Scella|Scella]], closely related to [[Scellan]]. It is notable for its many vowels.


''slaobh'' = "there is"
It is aesthetically inspired by Swiss German and Southern American English.

==Morphology==
The Bhadhagha verbal system is very different from Tíogall, and much closer to [Coetel gib].
For one thing, Bhadhagha analogized the analytic forms of verbs to all persons, and fused the personal pronoun with the verb:
<poem>
moladh ná -> molanna "I thank"
moladh fiar -> molair "thou thankst"
moladh hú -> molù "he thanks"
moladh hí -> molaì "she thanks"
moladh gámh -> molamh "we thank"
moladh séid -> molaid "ye thank"
moladh hár -> molar "they thank"
Impersonal: molaobh "one thanks"
</poem>
The past tense is marked by a séimhiú on the verb as in Irish, except that the suffixes are the same as in the present tense. This comes from a construction that translates to "it was the case that ...", which also survives in [Coetel gib]. Even non-lenitable consonants get aspirated in casual Bhadhagha, though in the written language a particle is used when the first consonant isn't lenitable.
The future tense however has a special set of suffixes, derived from the Old Tíogall future tense:
<poem>
moltanna, moltair, moltù, moltaì, moltamh, moltaid, moltar
</poem>
Bhadhagha is not split-ergative, unlike Tíogall.
Perfect tenses use the construction ''tainn'' ('after', often pronounced ''tann'') followed by the verbal noun.
