Re: Lexember 2017
Lexember 8 - Nakarian
ɾɛi̯˨ - good, harmonious, true to its nature, beautiful
sɤ˦ - bad, evil, deformed, false
These two terms have a key philosophical and cultural significance in Nakarian culture. Linguistically, they have led to the association of the low tone and front vowels a/e/i with positive values, and the high tone and “rhotic harmony” vowels ə/ɤ/ɯ - with the negative. Nakarian literature often uses this notion to convey different undertones, and it even affected semantic drift to an extent.

Re: Lexember 2017
Lexember 9 - Nakarian
pau̯ - particle used in adjectival phrases.
Since adjectives typically only differ from nouns by a tone on the final syllable, modern colloquial Nakarian borrowed a possessive particle “pau̯” from Samhan. It is used in the form: Adjective pau̯ Noun” but another noun can also be substituted for the adjective. Although this construction is rare in literature, it is already the standard in northwestern dialects.
