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 ta̋im̃a [ta̋im̃a, 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) – ta̋im̃a Subclass (C) – nerta̋im̃a
- Order (O) - kőina
- Suborder (sO) - nerkőina
- Superfamily (SF) - ufða̋ma
- Family (F) - ða̋ma
- Subfamily (sF) - nerða̋ma
- Family (F) - ða̋ma
- Superfamily (SF) - ufða̋ma
- Suborder (sO) - nerkőina
Notes
- cpd = a compound of two or more roots, e.g. ǧa̋ro, mountain + kı̋ȝe, worm = ǧarkı̋ȝe, Colchican slowworm.
- drv = a word derived from a root, e.g., ra̋a̋se, frog < ra̋a̋sa, t.v. croak.
- Names in red are those of herptiles that did not exist in Sefdaania.
