About Kwarlan Kwarlan is my first true attempt to make a naturalistic language, and it is not meant to relate to existing languages in any way (although some strange coincidences have occurred). It is an agglutinative language that has no capital letters or articles and can combine many words into one. Verbs have altered transitivity, and can be intransitive, transitive, ditransitive, or even tritransitive. Subjects are attached to objects, then verbs, and finally suffixes that indicate tense and mood, all separated by k, the voiceless uvular fricative. This means that entire sentences can be a single word (although not all sentences will be). There is also a conscript, an alphabet where each letter stands for a phoneme, and the letters are modeled after how it is pronounced in the mouth. This is a primitive language, so it does not have many irregulars, although they still exist, and it can be unwieldy at times.

"They are stupid, aren't they?" Dr. Orwell agreed, as though they were talking about the weather instead of insulting young children.
