Language Notes

Midan is the language of many of the past sentient races of Earth, including tawilu, some mucaigein nations, and covecku. As the language is still a MASSIVE work in progress, here is what I have so far! It isn't going to be very well-organized and will probably change very often! Most of this is just shorthand so I remember

## Midan Rules

* articles do not exist.
* “of” is either a hyphen or the conjunction “du”.  either can be pronounced as du or not at all depending on how good it sounds.
* apostrophes are like periods, but up. use an asterisk when typing!
* capitalization DOES exist! same rules as English.
* there are two types of adjectives: physical and imaginary. imaginary adjectives go directly before the subject while physical adjectives go directly after.
* the word and is an apostrophe! it is either not pronounced and used as a slight pause OR is pronounced with a small clicky sound
* quotes are <>.
* “u” is a plural suffix. if there is already a vowel at the end of the word, it is replaced, except if it is a. some words, like ala and alaru, have exceptions, and another letter is added in to make it sound nicer.
* the end of a sentence is still a period. commas aren’t used for lists, as ‘ replaces that. exclamation and question marks go at the FRONT of a sentence, which is then ended with a period. they are not upside down.
* add an s to verbs that come from a plural subject.
* basic verbs are always present tense -ing!
* add the prefix o- to verbs to make them like -er! doer words or whatever they're called. like, time → tim**er**,
