It is more a concept paper than an actual conlang, more to get the ideas
straight in my mind of what I want to do and not actually have a
conlang, going for simplicity, often with the same word being used for
different things, depending on how it is used. Bascially find we use
alot of
words that are nothing but another word for some basic concept.
I,An,One are like this. All depends on how it is used, and modified.
Why say One man, when it is obvious it is a single man. While men only
need to be modified by number of men.
He,She are just variations on the same concept.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The basic idea of this lingo is the relationship of the speaker and all
others..
Front/Positive/Future/Living/Add = Fro
Back/Negative/Past/Not-Living/Substract = Ba
Self/I/One/Start Point/Subject = I
Them/Others/
Front/Add=Fro
Back/Take=Ba
All is neuter, unless the subject is male or female, then it is
masculine or feminine.
Singular:
First Person: I
Third Person: He/She
Plural
First Person (inclusive): I
Third Person (non-inclusive): He/She
Third Person:
First Person: We
Third Person: They
All else is relative to I.
The Man, went to the store
Place=Pla
Thing=Thi
Being=Lif
Action=Aco
Emotion=Emo
I=I
-n=masculine
-t=feminine
-a=singular
-e=Plural
-k=Inclusivc
-m=Non-Inclusive
Store=Place to buy things
Plaacofrothi
Went
Action, past tense, not specific

The Man=Third person, individual, not-inclusive
