About Bastic Bastic is an Indo-European language spoken in the small European country of Bastaan (located on the Baltic Coast touching Lithuania and Latvia). It is different to most European languages due to the fact that males and females use two completely different forms of the language - each could be considered a language by itself, but both forms are grouped together under one name. Another distinguishing feature of Bastic is Word Inversion - the first and last letters of a word can swap depending on where the words around it are, E.g. Ig habak tug = I have you, and Tug kabah ig = I have you. Words affected by this rule are Verbs, Prepositions and dome Conjunctions.
