+ | |||
+ | ==== General Information ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Raiken utilize a phonetic alphabet, where each symbol is attached to a specific sound, thus, there is only one correct pronunciation for every word. Additionally, | ||
+ | |||
+ | To quote a wise tree, ** "It takes a long time to say anything (in Old Entish), and we never say anything that isn't worth taking a long time to say." ** Raiken typically speak rather slow, as their tongue requires them to clearly enunciate each sound to convey proper meaning. Thus, they do not typically string out long, elaborate sentences, as it takes a while to say. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== General Language Rules ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | These general rules apply throughout the language. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Sound Assignments === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Raiken assign specific sounds to specific parts of speech or categories of words. This streamlines their language and makes it easier to identify what someone is saying without actually knowing the word, if one knows how sounds are assigned. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ^ Category/ | ||
+ | | Body | r, e, d | | ||
+ | | Mind | k, y, æ | | ||
+ | | World | s, u, n | | ||
+ | | Sky | a:, w, m | | ||
+ | | Life | t, l, h | | ||

+ | | Articles | ||
+ | | Conjunctions | ||
+ | | Prepositions | ||
+ | | Question | ||
+ | | Opposite, Not | ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Rule of Opposition === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Raiken recognize that the world works with opposing forces in most circumstances. As such, any word that has an opposite must utilize the appropriate opposing sound, where applicable. The last vowel in a word is always the vowels in opposition. Oppositions are not bound to any particular rule or category. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ^ Opposition | ||
+ | | a: | u | | ||
+ | | Ou | i: | | ||
+ | | e | i | | ||
+ | | ə | æ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Rule of Singularity & Major/Minor === | ||
+ | |||
+ | No two words can have the same meaning, except in special circumstances. Rather, words can be sub-minor, minor, neutral, major, and super major. Major/Minor is utilized to stress the power or weakness of any particular word, such as the difference in walking, jogging, and strolling. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Major/Minor has its own sound and subminor and supermajor possess an opposing modifier. These modifiers are typically allowed to be attached to any word in the Raiken language, as they are designed to simply indicate power/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ^ Subminor | ||
+ | | Zsur | Zsu | Zsa | Zsar | | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Rule of Heavens === | ||
+ | |||
+ | Any word assigned to the category of ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Rule of the Mother Runes === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Mother Runes are ancient and they bear some influence on the modern tongue. Any word that derives its meaning directly from the Mother Runes is permitted to forego the usual sound assignments. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Plurality and Possessive | ||
+ | |||
+ | To make a word plural, add an ' S' ' before the word. If the word begins with a vowel, add ' Sa' ' instead. | ||
+ | * Storm - Aeruz | ||
+ | * Storms - S' | ||
+ | |||
+ | To indicate that an item is possessed by another, attach the proper noun or pronoun that the item is possessed by. It is not incorrect to use ‘vi’ instead. This edits pronunciation and technical meaning, but still indicates possessive. This is usually used for decorum, if anything. | ||
+ | |||

+ | * My Home - Tamia' | ||

If the question results in the verb coming before the noun it is attached to, the verb is still conjugated as if it was linked to that noun. The link between these words is shown with a hyphen, though this does not affect pronunciation. If there are multiple verbs linked to the same noun, conjugate all of them appropriately. | If the question results in the verb coming before the noun it is attached to, the verb is still conjugated as if it was linked to that noun.
