Could you give us some more information on Montanian? I gather that it's not very inflecting? If it uses prepositions, those could merge with the noun, in effect becoming case prefices. Similarly, any auxiliary verbs could merge with the main verb to become infections. Any existing inflections could be given wider fields of use (for instance, a genitive used only for actual possession could come to be used for almost any sort of association).
