About Bunyaic
Sure, I'd be happy to explain the features of the Bunyah language that you've created!
Vocabulary:
Bunyah has a unique vocabulary that includes made-up words like "flarble" (meaning "how"), "snazzle" (meaning "if"), "boser" (meaning "suggestions"), and "caster" (meaning "ideas"). It also uses words that are similar to English, such as "boder" (meaning "word"), "clober" (meaning "open"), and "flaffle" (meaning "describe"). Additionally, Bunyah has its own words for numbers, days of the week, months, colors, and various food items and body parts.
Grammar:
Bunyah has several unique grammar rules, such as replacing words ending in "y" with "ah" (excluding words that have already been changed), and using "r" for plurals when a word ends in "e" and "s" for all other words. For example, "finger" becomes "trem" in the singular and "tremer" in the plural. Additionally, Bunyah indicates numbers using the word "ain" for "one", and includes unique words for larger numbers such as "aintesen" for "hundred" and "ainutestra" for "thousand".
Conjunctions:
Bunyah has several conjunctions, including "and" (ema), "but" (est), "so" (sa), and "therefore" (meco). It also includes words for expressing contrast, such as "although" (guban), "moreover" (puracust), "however" (homac), and "whereas" (contema).
Prepositions:
Bunyah uses prepositions to indicate location and direction, including "to" (ra), "where" (kem), "from" (cont), "in" (wa), and "on" (ni).
Pronouns:
Bunyah has several pronouns for referring to people and things, including "he" (wa), "she" (wi), "they" (uda), and "it" (wo).
