Grammar

Word Order

Ancaron verbs mark the subject as a suffix and the direct object as a prefix, forming a OVS word order.

  • Bocpunmuc.
boc-pun-muc
rock-hold-I
I hold a rock.

Tense markers and then any adverbs immediately precede the verb, following the object.

  • Boccivtorsipunmuc.
boc-civ.tor-sipun-muc
rock-FUT.quickly-throw-I
I will quickly throw the rock.

Adjectives also immediately precede the word they modify.

  • Tucbocpunmuc.
tuc-boc-pun-muc
old-rock-hold-I
I hold an old rock.

However, while the direct object precedes the verb and subject, the indirect object follows the verb and subject as a separate word.

  • Boccivsipunmuc Mardon.
boc-civ.sipun-muc Mardon
rock-FUT.throw-I Mardon
I will toss the rock to Mardon.

Possessive forms are treated as adjectives. Also note that most words are not limited to a specific part of speech.

  • Docpunpunmuc.
Doc-pun-pun-muc
Your-hand-hold-I
I hold your hand.

Numbers

Numbers are in general read off from left to right as individual numerals

  • vet
vet
one
one
  • vetvan
vet-van
one-zero
ten
  • vetvanviv
vet-van-viv
one-zero-five
one hundred and five

However larger numbers have their own words to help break up the list. Any zeros following these higher number words are ignored until a non-zero number is found.

  • vuet
vuet
thousand
one thousand
  • vetvervuetviv
vet-ver-vuet-viv
one-eight-thousand-five
eighteen thousand and five
  • vetvervuetvivvan
vet-ver-vuet-viv-van
one-eight-thousand-five-zero
eighteen thousand and fifty

Plurals

To make a word plural, add the unspecific plural prefix "car"

  • on
on
person
person
  • caron
car.on
PLR.person
people

Alternatively, numbers can be used instead to for a specific plural.

  • vucon
vuc.on
three.person
three people

"In" is also used as a plural prefix as well to represent large amounts but remaining unspecific in total number.

  • inon
in.on
many.people
many people
