This is '''kata''', a simple language with vocabulary based on the most widely spoken languages and an easily understood, mostly analytic grammar.
= tense =


= phonology =
==Present==
'''kata''' has nine consonants (/p, t, k, s, m, n, l, j, w/) and five vowels (/a, e, i, o, u/). Stress is word final.
* '''Me pasea''' (''I walk, I am walking'')
== consonants ==
* '''Me es en media de pasea''' (''I’m in the middle of walking'') <small>If necessary to emphasize the action is in process</small>

=== diphthongs ===
===Past perfect===
There are two diphthongs [ai̯] '''ai''', and [au̯] '''au'''. These are rare and typically only occur word-finally.
* '''Me ia pasea ja''' (''I had walked already'')


== syllable structure ==
===Prospective perfect===
All syllables are of the form (C)V(N), that is, optional consonant + vowel + optional final nasal, or V, CV, VN, CVN.
* '''Me ia vade a pasea''' (''I was going to walk'', literally:  ''I was going to walk, I went to walk'')
== phonotactics ==
* '''Me ia es a punto de pasea''' (''I was just about to walk'', literally:  ''I was at the point of walking'')
A few syllables sequences are disallowed; /ji, wu, wo/. Also, a syllable-final nasal may not occur before /m/ or /n/ in the same root.
== allophony ==
The nasal at the end of a syllable can be pronounced as any nasal stop, though it is normally assimilated to the following consonant. That is, it typically occurs as an [n] before /t/ or /s/, as an [m] before /p/, as an [ŋ] before /k/, and as an [ɲ] before /j/. Because of its small phoneme inventory, '''kata''' allows for quite a lot of allophonic variation. For example, /p t k/ may be pronounced [b d ɡ] as well as [p t k], /s/ as [z] or [ʃ] as well as [s], /l/ as [ɾ] as well as [l], and vowels may be either long or short. Both its sound inventory and phonotactics (patterns of possible sound combinations) are found in the majority of human languages and are therefore readily accessible.
= writing system =
'''kata''' uses a modified form of Hangul.

* '''Me ia es en media de pasea''' (''I was in the middle of walking'')
* '''Me ia es en pasea''' (''I was walking'')


'''kata''' has a strict word order. The basic word order is [[wp:Subject–verb–object|subject–verb–object]].
===Recent past===
* '''Me veni de pasea''' (''I just walked, I have just walked'')
* '''Me es a fini de pasea''' (''I am at the end of walking, note: not yet done'')


* * <font face="gungsuh"><big><big><b>와 고모 반</b></big></big></font>

===Near future===

* '''Me vade a pasea''' (''I am going to walk right now'', literally:  ''I go to walk, I am going to walk'')
* '''Me es a punto de pasea''' (''I am just about to walk'', literally: ''I am at the point of walking'')


'''kata''' nouns and other parts of speech are not generally marked for number, meaning that plural forms are mostly the same as the singular. However, there is a plural marker '''-lo''', which has limited usage. It is used with personal pronouns, as in '''walo''', meaning "we" or "us" (from '''wa''', "I, me"), and can be used with other nouns for clarity or specificity. Its use in such cases is optional. It is never used when the noun has indefinite reference, or when it is qualified by a numeral. The demonstrative pronouns '''pu''' ("this; these") and '''su''' ("that; theose") are never pluralized.
===Future imperfect===
* '''Me va es paseante''' (''I will be walking'')  <small>If necessary to emphasize the action will be in process</small>
* '''Me va es en media de pasea''' (''I will be in the middle of walking'')
* '''Me va es en pasea''' (''I will be walking'')


= determiners =
===Future perfect===
Determiners in '''kata''' precede the noun they modify.
* '''Me va pasea ja''' (''I will have walked'', literally: ''I will have walked already'')


* '''ayo''' - any; whatever; whichever; whatsoever
===Conditional===
* '''koye''' - some; a few; a little
* '''Me ta pasea''' (''I would walk'')
* '''kula''' - all; each; every
* '''pu''' - this; these
* '''su''' - that; those


= pronouns =
===Imperative===
* '''Pasea plu rapida!''' (''Walk faster!'')


'''kata''' has three basic pronouns; '''wa''' (first person), '''ni''' (second person), and '''ko''' (third person). These words do not indicate number or gender, but may be modified to do so if necessary. '''-lo''' marks all nouns as plural, and the gender modifiers are '''-ku''' (masculine), and '''-ki''' (feminine). In cases of singular distinction of gender, '''koku''' ("he"), or '''koki''' ("she") can be reduced to simply '''ku''' and '''ki'''. There is also a possessive suffix '''-yo'''.

= verbs =
    be
A typical verb denotes the occurrence or abandonment of an action ("run, stop"), a relationship ("have, lose"), or a state ("stand, melt"). In '''kata''', verbs do not change to indicate such things as tense or mood. Instead, particles are used specifically, '''le''' (completed action), and '''sa''' (indicating an as yet undertaken action). Any verb can be reused without change as a noun.
    there is
== tense ==
    have
The indicative, progressive, and present are all encompassed in the basic verb form. The past tense, perfect, and perfective is indicated by the particle '''le'''. The future, potential, and propositive are indicated by the particle '''sa'''.
