About Elvesian
Gal òim, natively Elvesom "of the people", is a language isolate with lexical and phonological influence from neighbouring Aivehinō and Ngosok languages.
It was designed initially to resemble Hungarian, though its grammar is significantly different.
Features:
- NOM-ACC alignment
- 5 cases
- no gender, no number (though plurality may be shown in definite articles and nouns in the nominative)
- OVS
Probably yet another attempt at reviving one of my older conlangs.
