Re: On Polypersonal Agreement
Maybe you could turn verbs into a closed class like in Basque, where most verbs can't be conjugated by their own and require auxiliaries. Since clitics usually attach to the auxiiary it would begin to show agreement with more than one argument. At some point the new conjugated auxiliary can become a...

Re: What did you accomplish today?
I've worked on the verb p , 'to do', in Deinau. As a main verb, it has been replaced in all of its inflected forms with the verb ·ir , 'to make', being used only for non-inflected forms as suppletives.

Re: Deinau: new project
Wouldn't these be <iei ou yey vw>, or were you trying to reduce the number of triphthongs? That's the point Sorry, but what do you mean by this, if you don't mind my asking? I mean I think the ortography for vowels can be better, I prefer digraphs to diacritics but what I have this far (trigraphs a...

Re: Grammatical Gender
Tnaaq has 4 genders: masculine, feminine, animate and inanimate. Masculine and feminine are almost conflated to a human gender. Nouns only show gender prefixes if they also have some definite prefixes (k- for specific things and q- for those already mentioned): k-a-syranq: the (specific) old man (hu...

Re: Deinau: new project
They are nasalized diphthongs /æɪ ɒʊ/. Yep, they are! Which consonants are reduced to which of those six possible coda consonants? Basically all the modes of articulation for plosives come into one. /P/ is a conflation of /p/, /pʰ/, /ⁿp/ and /ⁿpʰ/, for example. /S/ stands for all the sibilants and ...
