Cenoji

Cenoji is a language created by Eosp. It is highly agglutinative, has 6 cases, and a highly simple morphology with no stops. Why? Because I think stops are ugly. That's why a lot of things are odd in this language.

Phonology

Vowels

The vowels are the front vowels of Finnish, but I'm using the letters for the back vowels. For those who don't know what they are, here they are:

• a: X-SAMPA [a].
• e: X-SAMPA [e].
• i: X-SAMPA [i].
• o: X-SAMPA [2].
• u: X-SAMPA [y].

Consonants

None of these are stops.

• c: X-SAMPA [s].
• f: X-SAMPA [f].
• h: X-SAMPA [x].
• j: X-SAMPA [j].
• l: X-SAMPA [l].
• m: X-SAMPA [m].
• s: X-SAMPA [S].
• t: X-SAMPA [T].

Dipthongs

The characters /c/, /f/, /l/, and /m/ can be combined with the character /j/ as a dipthong.

Syllable Structure

The syllable structure is /CV/, where C is a consonant or dipthong and V is a vowel.

Grammar

Cases

• Nominative: indicates the subject of the sentence.
• Accusative: indicates the object of the sentence.
• Temporal: indicates the time an event took place.
• Facilitative: indicates a noun that helps the event take place. In the case of a three-noun sentence (such as I gave a letter to John), letter would be in the nominative and I would be in the facilitative. (this sentence would probably be closer to With my help, a letter gave itself to John.)
• Obstructive: indicates a noun that prevents or hinders an event.
• Result: Indicates the result of a sentence.
