About Famast
The Celtic Superlanguage
The feel of Irish, a tad of Welsh, some good ol' Scottish Gaelic, and a sprinkle of our Germanic friend, English.
Some creamy features:
-=- word-intial consonant m u t a t i o n s
{radical: b, c, d, g, l, m, n, r, s, t
{'h': bh, ch, dh, gh, lh, mh, nh, rh, sh, th
{long : addh, ammh, annh
nouns with a radical initial will:
mutate to a 'h' when prepositions, definite articles, and some possessives precede
ex:
darthag : sun
i dharthag : the sun
cagheon : girl
chagheon o'hi : her girl
mutate to a long when the first person singular possessive [my] and the word [in] precede
ex:
menead : minute
an ammhenead : in a minute
naedra : puppy
annhaedra o'shui : my puppy
-=- No conjugation of verbs for person and number
it's all in the auxiliary verb ;)
ex:
genedu : to make
genedu shui a : i make
genedu shui a'n hedh : i made
genedu shui a'n caoc : i will make
