 Proto-Talmic needs "ingredients" for Roshterian polysynthesis.
 ===Nouns===
-Proto-Talmic has innovated a sex-based gender system with masculine, feminine, and neuter genders:
-# Proto-Quihum had a gender system of common and neuter genders, and also had an honorific distinction which required agreement in verbs and adjectives.
-# In Pre-Talmic, the honorific developed into its own gender, often being used for big, sacred, specialized, or abstract things, in addition to people of high social status.
-# The word for "lady", ''kabnas'', became the normal word for "woman" (like how ''Frau'', formerly "lady", became the normal word for "woman" in German).
-# Thus, the former honorific agreement analogized to all women.
