The sylvan language uses many apostrophes when written. One of the main uses of the apostrophe is to denote possession. A noun written in lower-case precedes the apostrophe, while a noun written with the first letter capitalized follows the apostrophe. A plural noun is denoted by an extra "t" at the end of the word.
+
-
<br>For example...
+
-
 
+
-
ssara'Kait is the saviour of pixies
+
-
 
+
-
Verbs are written as words ending in m, t, s, p, or r. The number of nouns described in the verb determines whether the second-to-last letter is an "a" or an "i".
+
-
<br>For example...
+
-
 
+
-
Ilam means "I am"
+
-
<br>Ilim means "We are"
+
-
 
+
-
An "m" denotes the first person, a "t" denotes the second person, an "s" denotes a masculine third person, a "p" deontes a feminine third person, and an "r" denotes either a neuter third person or an object.
+
-
<br>An easy way to remember the endings are "Master Timothy Said, 'Pay Rudolph!'"

[edit] Lesson

Adjectives are denoted by a comma between words. This special comma, called a cimma, links the two words together without a space as a normal comma. Therefore...

nia,Kai is "one pixie"

To write a compound number such as 21, 70, or 231, write the adjective with the first letter of the number at the end of the base number. For example...

yiap,nia,Kait is "Twenty and one pixies"
yiav,Kait is "Seventy pixies"
ziap,yiak,nia,Kait is "Two hundred and thirty and one pixies"

Notice that quia (three) has a subletter of k instead of q. This is for pronunciation purposes.
