The start of a Polysynthetic conlang: Plitnakya

Post by taylorS »

FraithWiki page: http://wiki.frath.net/Plitnakya

It's not fleshed out much yet, but it's a start.

An example:

Nisdhunlahuwuunckahyoslyaiyaa Notlig "I was usually wanting to keep on eating ham with you on Christmas before today"
[nis.t̻un.la.xu.wuːnʧʰ.kʰa.çjós.ljaj nó.tʰlik]

Code: Select all

ni-    s-        dhu-   nla-        hu-         wuu-       nc-    ka-  hyo- slyai- yaa   Notlig
1SG- COMITATIVE- LOC- HABITUAL- CONTUATIVE- DESIRITIVE- DURATIVE- PST- eat-  ham-  2SG  Christmas

Why does the number prefix precede the definiteness prefix?
Is DESIRITIVE a synonym for desiderative?


I no longer feel bad about my verbs having as many categories/slots as they do.

This is far more advanced than anything I've ever tried before, so all I can say is good job and good look mastering this beast.
