About One Verb
A language with only one verb, "e". If it's followed by a noun in the nominative case, it means "be", and if it's followed by a noun in the accusative case it means "changes to" or "is now". The word order is SVO.
Example:
Zosa nudo e gosan nudon. = I give a dog to you. (Literally: My dog is now your dog.)
Nouns decline for case and number. Adjectives decline for case, but not number.
