About Ettkasön
Ettkasön is my first serious attempt at an artlang. I decided to do a non-ambitous grammar but I want to have Ettkasön to be at least functional and ready to be spoken. I will add more stuff here once I'll have done a bit more work on it, but I intend Ettkasön to be a fully speakable language.
In lore, Ettkasön is the main language of the Ettkasi Republic, a country situated halfway between temperate, german-forests like lands, and a colder northern part. The Ettkasi Republic is democratic and secular but its very religious past have influenced a lot on both the culture and the language.
I will developp the grammar of Ettkasön more and more as I go. Ettkasön will recognize 3 genders, 2 numbers, and 10 pronouns. The grammar will mostly be SVO and the cases will be kept to a few, with only 3 cases (Nominative, Accusative, and Genitive).
Any criticism is fully appreciated and I hope Ettkasön will be a fun language to hear and read about!
