About High Fei
NOTICE: THIS IS A POSSIBLY NON-CANON PROTO-LANGUAGE FOR FEIRIE. I MAY NEVER DEVELOPE THESE PROTOLANGS ANY FURTHER AND ONLY USE THEM FOR INSPIRATION FOR MY NEW FEIRIE.
High Fei, once a major language of Mala, is now only spoken by a minority of old Fei and in some tribes deep in the jungle.
- a complex, plosive-less phonology,
- verbs that mark aspect and mood,
- a syntax that follows the Mirror System (see article),
- no adpositions, instead various position marking copulas,
