About Modern Standard Skyenfuldik
To make this language, I took the entire lexicon from Skyenfuldik and imported it into a new language. I created sound changes by using Zompist's sound change applier. After that, I began building the grammar structure to resemble that of Skyenfuldik's, but with a few key differences:
1. I have completely done away with distinct particles for definite and indefinite articles, making them part of noun declensions. (The Indefinites have an ám particle though) 2. I added a new system for prepositions. They now conjugate for tense and part of speech. 3. I did away with the voiced and unvoiced dental fricatives "ð" and "þ". They have been consolidated into a single "th" sound. 4. Verb endings have been changed from "-ir" to "-er" (One of the reasons I had to rebuild the grammar structure).
