introduction
Ilya is an artlang designed for aesthetic reasons. It borrows heavily (if not exclusively) from Arabic, Basque, Japanese, Quechua, Spanish, and Turkish.

nouns
number
Nouns are commonly preceded by determiners. Plural nouns are formed by appending -im. Dual nouns are formed by appending -ik. Trial nouns are formed by appending -ur. This does not alter the stress:
gender
case
nominative
The basic form of each noun, and the one cited in dictionaries, is the nominative singular. All the other forms can be derived from it.
oblique
- -o / -wa || beto || the house, to the house, etc.
genitive
The genitive for possessors (the horse's hay), composition (a meal of hay), and partiality (the horse ate some hay).
- -ai / -ya
- munwa betai - the door of the house
locative
- -(u)sh / -da || betush || in, at, on the house
instrumental
- -ak / -ha || betak || using; with the house
