Grammar || Lezuqma

Nouns || Saksozi

In talking about nouns, it is essential to state the basics of nouns in the language of Musmeh. At first, nouns do not have gender, but have case to them. The case in which nouns fall into is rather simple and straight-forward. My demonstrating word will be kečat (meaning dog). The default or dictionary form of a word is always in the nominative singular.

Nominative

Singular: kečat

Plural: kečati


Genitive

Singular: kečatu

Plural: kečatun


Accusative

Singular: kečaten

Plural: kečatenen


As you may not have noticed endings are put regardless the last letter of the word.


Some prepositions that might be useful:

With – behet

For – hamaţ

To – vёx

On -- boyengaç

Verbs || Balti

The verbs in Musmeh follow a distinct structure. First, when written in a dictionary form, every verb is written in its infinitive form. The verb that we will use to demonstrate is ezmakur meaning to feel. As you see, the ur is the infinitive stem adding the “to” preposition to the meaning, its pretty straightforward.

Personal Pronouns

I – vёs

You – dёn

He – en

She – an

It – on


We – vёsi

You(formal) – dune

They – ex


Present Tense

I feel – vёs ezmakёm

You feel – dёn ezmakus

He/she/it feels – en/an/on ezmakut


We feel – vёsi ezmakim

You(plural) feel – dune ezmaksus

They feel – ex ezmakuç


Imperfect – a similar structure to English exists, the word is formated as a present tense word, but the perfect form of the word “to be” is placed before the verb (as a separate word) respectively.


Future – a similar structure to English exists, the word is formated as a present tense word, but the future form of the word “to be” is placed before the verb (as a separate word) respectively.


Perfect

I felt -- vёs ezmakom

You felt – dёn ezmakous

He/she/it felt – en/an/on ezmakot


We felt – vёsi ezmakoem

You(plural) felt – dune ezmakosus

They felt – ex ezmakouç


Plu-Perfect

I had felt – vёs ezmakolёm

You had felt – dёn ezmakolus

He/she/it had felt – en/an/on ezmakolut


We felt – vёsi ezmakolem

You(plural) felt – dune ezmakolsus

They felt – ex ezmakoluç


There are no irregular verbs in the language of Musmeh.


Helpful Verbs:

To be – vur

Will be - ţuqur

To like – selmaţur

To greet – saxanashur

To have – dunvur

To talk – oqçolur

To eat – pevegeshur

To know – yelqapur

More Pronouns || Gonshac Saqsozardami

Possessive Pronouns: The construction of possessive pronouns is a simple task.

Let’s say you have the pronoun dun (you). To make it possessive you have to add the ça ending thus making it dunça (yours). You perform the same task to the other pronouns respectively.

Style, Numbers, and More || Fenţar, Hamashliki, ё Gonţar

A typical sentence follows the same word order as English, subject – verb – adjective. However, word order in speech is free to an extent.

The boy was late.

Daxa vot sonvan.


Here is a scenario, you have a question stating, do you eat? Since the “do” is a question word here (its behind the subject) you would use the infinitive form. However if the question states was, you do eat, the form of do would conform to “you.”


In negating a question, I do not speak Musmeh, you would had a “na” after the “do” to negate it.


It is important to realize that in the few cases like “vёs” where vowels are lacking, “ё” is required to be inserted so pronounciation is constant. Once you see enough examples, you will be more aquainted in the certain situations where “ё” is used.


Punctuation: The punctuation in Musmeh is period(.), comma(,), exclamation point (!), question mark (?). However, in the plural genetive there is a (‘) sign to the last letter of that noun.


Numbers: 1 – ёn

2 – dva

3 – ţi

4 –četre

5 – hinsa

6 – sinç

7 – sent

8 – ut

9 – xin

10 – dёv


Question Words

How? – nahat?

When? – hax?

Where? – uţar?

Who? – ev?

What? – ёla?

Why? – veţe?


Since Musmeh is not frequently spoken I will pardon the time to discuss the specifics of spoken Musmeh. Speaking Musmeh is the same in relationship to reading Musmeh, but sometimes like in all languages word order can be switched around more easily in speech.
