Easkun language

Easkun is the offical language of the excation, which has a few variation across kalem, but generally uses the same rules and words anywhere on the planet.

## **Sentence structure**

the easkun language is relativly simple, lacking much in the way of complex grammer and following a simple scentence structure like the one below.

(Topic) (action) (biology/world/food/self word)
(action) (emotion/ mental word) (target word/name)

## **Topic**

The topic words are always used at the start of a scentence to show what kind of scentence it will be

question
answer
addition
instruction
greeting

Tek and Oka are both often modified by the use of Kav, changing thier meaning from a greeting to a goodbye in the case of tek, and from meaning about oneself to meaning about another individual in the case of oka.

## **Writing**

When writen, the sylables are grouped together between two lines that act as a guide for the scentences. As with most things in excation culture, there are no set rules as to how things are written, but excation can quickly tell if something is right or wrong without being sure as to how they know this. The rules of Easkun are passed down from parent or teacher to child through the neural link, resulting in some groups of excation having specific traits in their way of writing.

Most excation do not write in their day to day lives, but most have learned the skill, or can use the knowledge of others nearby via the excation's Neural Link.
