Kyrete is now undergoing a significant change to Kyrete3rd


I'm making a video game.

Kyrete is now being released under it's 3rd edition. Because of this, alot of the information related to Kyrete will change.




Kyrete (/ka͡iɹitɛ/) is an a priori, lightly-agglutinative, philosophical, art language. Because of this, Kyrete is different from almost every language you might have been exposed to. Kyrete has a horizontally written fully featured conscript, and accompanying font, developed after 14 separate revisions. The characters of Kyrete's writing system form an abugida (which overlap, and were a pain to put into font form).

The language itself is composed of 140 distinct "morpheme like particles" that are made up of consonant-vowel pairs (CV). There are 20 consonants, 5 vowels, and 2 diphthongs. Kyrete's delivery of speech has little to do with tone. Information in Kyrete is conveyed by the makeup of the words themselves.

All words in Kyrete are chains of consonant-vowel, or consonant-diphthong pairs. The Kyrete language does not use 2 consecutive consonants. The ts, sh, and ch are consonant clusters, and are supposed to be represented by a single character in the Kyrete alphabet; q, x, and c. They have been romanized to make easier reading on myself and others.

Each particle represents either a semantic prime, or a grammatical case maker like an honorific, tense suffix, or subject marker. Kyrete's general philosophy is that a sentence should be short, concise, contain few articles, and use as few syllables as possible. It is preferred to have many small sentences, rather than single large sentences.
