About Giskain Kēl
The Gothic child of
Kaimen Kēling. Features include:

- substantial register of loanwords from Greek and Latin
- massive syncope, leading to more fusional morphology including multiple noun declension classes
- collapse of singular and plural locatives in most declension classes
- collapse of dative and genitive forms in most declension classes
- word order gradually becoming more head-initial: prepositions replacing postpositions, adjectives and genitives following the noun
