Introduction
- In the Sefdaanian cultures, each individual is a member of a hierarchy of communities. The Ethrans have used this hierarchy as a pattern for their classification of life forms.
- The individual is, first of all, a member of one of the six Loquent Peoples. The largest of the taxonomic communities is that of the le̋uða (< le̋uðu, people). Thus, there are "animal people" and "plant people". This division corresponds to "kingdom" in modern taxonomy.
- Next, the individual lives in one of the seven regions (watersheds) of Sefdaania. This division, the ta̋iṁa (< ta̋iṁa, region), corresponds to "class" in modern taxonomy.
- Within the several regions, the individual lives in a commune. This division, the kőina (< kőino, commune), corresponds to "order" in modern taxonomy.
- Each commune is comprised of a number of families. This division, the ða̋ma (< ða̋mu, family), corresponds to "family" in modern taxonomy.
- Within the family, the individual is usually one of several siblings. This division, the ȝőőra (< ȝőőru, sibling), corresponds to "genus" in modern taxonomy.
- And finally there is the individual himself. This division, the še̋ða (< še̋ðu, individual), corresponds to "species" in modern taxonomy.
- Finer divisions can be made with the use of prefixes, e.g.:
- uf-, higher = super-
- ner-, under = sub-
- sup-, low = infra-
- This table makes use of the following ranks:
- Class (C) - ta̋iṁa
- Order (O) - kőina
- Family (F) - ða̋ma
- The numbers indicate the number of the lemma, not the number of species.
