* Zikãti
Zikãti ({{{phon(d̻͡zikãti)}}}) is an agglutinative language I am currently
working on as an experiment. It doesnt have any worldbuilding around
it yet and may never have. Im mostly experimenting with vocabulary
generation with a language relying heavily on affixes modifying the
meaning of a root word.
** Phonology
*** Consonants
- b :: {{{phon(b)}}}
- d :: {{{phon(d̻)}}}
- g :: {{{phon(ŋ)}}}
- h :: {{{phon(h)}}}
- k :: {{{phon(k)}}}
- l :: {{{phon(ʟ)}}}
- m :: {{{phon(m)}}}
- mb :: {{{phon(ᵐb)}}}
- n :: {{{phon(n̻)}}}
- nd :: {{{phon(ⁿd̻)}}}
- nz :: {{{phon(ⁿd̻͡z)}}}
- p :: {{{phon(p)}}}
- q :: {{{phon(kʷ)}}}
- r :: {{{phon(r̻)}}}
- s :: {{{phon(s̻)}}}
- t :: {{{phon(t̻)}}}
- z :: {{{phon(d̻͡z)}}}
| | bilabial | lamino-alveolar | velar | labial-velar | glottal |
|------------------------------+----------+-----------------+-------+--------------+---------|
| nasal | m | n | g | | |
| nasalized plosive | mb | nd | | | |
| nasalized sibilant affricate | | nz | | | |
| plosive | p b | t d | k | q | |
| affricate | | z | | | |
| fricative | | s | | | h |
| trill | | r | | | |
| lateral approximant | | | l | | |
*** Vowels
- a :: {{{phon(a)}}}
- ã :: {{{phon(ã)}}}
- i :: {{{phon(i)}}}
- u :: {{{phon(u)}}}
- ŋ :: {{{phon(ŋ)}}}
- ɲ :: {{{phon(ɲ)}}}
*** Syllable and word structure
| Group | Consonants |
|-------+--------------------------------------|
| C_{1} | m n g mb nd nz p b t d z k q s h r l |
| C_{2} | p b t d z k q r h |
| V_{1} | i u ɲ ŋ a ã |
| V_{2} | i u a |
| V_{3} | ɲ ŋ ã |
Prefixes follow the [C_{2}]V_{2} phonetic structure, with C_{2} being optional.
Suffixes follow the C_{1}V_{3}[C_{2}] structure with C_{2} being optional.
Roots are a bit more complex, with a C_{1}[V_{3}[C_{2}]C_{1}]V_{2}[C_{2}] structure.
The only consonants that can follow the vowels /ŋ/ and /ɲ/ are non-nasal
plosive consonants. These two vowels cannot follow the consonants /m/,
/n/, or /g/. If such an occurence is created be it while constructing a
word or when they co-occur between words, a dummy {{{phon(u)}}} is added.
A word may contain one or more core roots which affixes cannot
separate but which can aggregate around this word core. A word can
consist of its bare core only, or the core surrounded by affixes. The
amount of prefixes and suffixes is independent from each other.
** Grammar
Zikãti is a nominative and an SOV language, and its verbs are marked
with a marker dedicated to tense and a marked dedicated to aspect and
mood. The verb does not agree with the subject or the object.
