Ku-wai.ze;au-re|; Conlang of System Authema

Welcome, welcome, here I'll post about a conlang that I make. I'm weak in this area, so I need everyone that have interest to bear with me, as I'm one of the laziest conlang maker out there /kicked

Ku-wai.ze;au-re| basically means ku-wai(with solitude and acceptance).ze(present);au-re|(everything (cluster of feeling)).

Basic Ku-wai.ze;au-re| follows this rule:
(emotional cluster).(verb);(emotional cluster).(target)
(emotional cluster).(verb);(emotional cluster).(object)=(emotional cluster).(target)
Emotional cluster could extends as far as seven string of emotions without sign of breaking. The cluster of emotions are treated your feeling when you execute something, be it physical activity or something. Target often carries mixed feeling, as it's not directly an object in this sense, because target is more to target of execution of the sentence. For example, "I shall sing my song to you"

Yif-wai-fal.alfei;soryu=il-sophii
(Happiness)(Acceptance)(Innocence).(Sing);(Praising Song)=(Love)(You (Female))
Generally translates to With all my feeling, I shall sing my song to you, beloved.

However, that was the easy part. A Ku-wai.ze;au-re| song is divided into categories. I'll update the category section later from time to time if need arise, but for now, let's learn the Blue and Red first.

Blue is Luguz
Red is Keinez

A ku-wai.ze;au-re would be immediately titled upon it's first execution
For a song that is more raw to power (like song magic), it uses the code XIRON.
Other uses code like PRODIA (to execute a function of a certain part of the body, such as transforming oneself partially or wholly) or ETAXEI (a grand song that materialize the caster's grand phantasm to the world, creating a small shift of reality).

Why would the song categorized? Generally, this is the limitation of the language. It's a rule that to use this language's power, one must present their voice and energy to an entity that lend their strength. The entity generally are colored like the song, and each of them have individual preference. Luguz creature generally would accept healing song, but NOT songs to alter body of someone. Therefore, creation of PRODIA in class.Luguz is highly unlikely, unless someone bend the will of the creature.

Some would think the entity as something akin to those of contracted beast, but this is not really true. The entity are free being. Those that offer their strength shall name themselves upon the singer. They generally are tied in position where they never leave their territory. Hence, if the person is far from the creature, their magic power also weak. To this, a singer must constantly befriend a creature to lend them their strength. However, it's easier to talk rather than doing. The creature are unable to be seen normally. Only if they presented with a song of pact that they like that they'll show themselves.

A titling would goes like this:

<CODE>_class.(color)_(type).(TITLE)|
Code: XIRON (song magic)
Types: Harma (Healing), Raksad (Harming), Mistel (Exorcise), Exia (Bond)

Code: PRODIA (transformation)
Types: Cyris (semi-transformation), Lyiff (Creation of New Body part), Espion (Total transformation)

Code ETAXEI however titled differently
It'll be
ETAXEI_class.aura_(emotional cluster)x(emotional cluster)_IEVE.(caster name)=Exia.(creature name)_(TITLE)|

GRAMMAR
---------------------
The emotional cluster
---------------------
A cluster of emotion that is put before verb or object, or even anything, is called emotional cluster. Each syllable generally gives different meaning. However, using the same syllable after each hypen won't give the meaning of "much". So it'll be useless. Generally, the cluster is <first priority> to the <least priority> There's a way to use same-priority, but that will be discussed later.

Au (Mixed Feeling)
Col (Faith)
Def (Desire to protect)
Eir (Sadness)
Fal (Naivety)
Fel (Appreciation)
Gor (Wishing to destroy)
Hid (Fear)
Il (Love)
Jeg (Anger)
Ku (Solitude)
Lor (Pride)
Mil (Disgust)
Ner (Reliance)
Re (Neutrality)
Sei (Empathy)
Wai (Acceptance)
Yif (Happiness)
Zei (Desire)

There's several thing that could be put in conjunction in the emotional cluster, but instead of put as -, you put them in =.
Prefix:
Xev (Absolute)
Ol (Great)
Yun (Much)
Chir (Slight)

Suffix:
Quei (Less)
Pef (Little)
Nois (None)

For example, by saying Xev=au-col=pev-Ol=dev, you're saying With confusion so great, and that you have little faith on the target, you greatly desire to protect him/her.

Is an emotional cluster important? Most of the time, emotional cluster are just mood builder. It's only enhancer of a sentence.
-----------------
Basic Structure
-----------------

Basic Ku-wai.ze;au-re| follows this rule like discussed above:
(emotional cluster).(verb);(emotional cluster).(target)
(emotional cluster).(verb);(emotional cluster).(object)=(emotional cluster).(target)

Generally, a sentence from ku-wai.ze;au-re| is spoken with first person point of view, hence the "I" is omitted. However, it's still valid nonetheless, to say "I" before all the sentence. It's however, considered more individual-orientated (either egoist or selfish). On the next sentence we'll talk about subject and pronoun.

-----------------------
Structure with Pronoun
-----------------------
Generally, the structure follows this
(subject).(emotional cluster).(verb);(emotional cluster).(target)

However, reflecting your feeling on what subject do, it's turned into
x.I.(emotional cluster)/nema{(subject).(emotional cluster).(verb);(emotional cluster).(target)}

Why don't I give you example?

x.I.Xev=mil-Ol=jeg-hid=Nois-Gor/nema{Orgij.gorkha;eliyum}
(I'm absolutely disgusted, until my fury barely contained (and such, without fear, I wish to destroy) that the lowly one's assault (cowardly) the weak(mortal))

The pronouns are:
I: Xl (Really Polite), Xik (Polite), Xix (Unrefined speech (rude))
You: Yl (Really Polite), Yiel (Polite), Yoi (Rude)
Him: Cona (Really Polite), Cihn (Polite), Cedu (Rude)
Her: Hama (Really Polite), Haly (Polite), Harni (Rude)
Them: Girie (Really Polite), Garv (Polite), Gorhka (Rude)

------------------
Preposition
------------------
A preposition is put before an object it affects, but after emotional cluster (if you plan to put any). The function that connects it is '. So by saying feidie ' rahuf, you're telling that it's [outside the village].

Fedie = Outside (lit. Far From)
Foneim = Inside (lit. Within)
Silpa = Above (lit. Sky Dwelling)
Foruna = Below (lit. Earth Dwelling)
Cafo, Pronois , Eutena, Aians = East, North, West, South (lit: name of cities)

Unfortunately, there are no left, right, in front of, behind or between.

---------------------
Comparison
--------------------
Sometime a comparison also pleases certain spirits that have high ego. However, as Ku-wai.ze;au-re| is such a language that put high emphasis in honesty, this is rarely used.

For example, how would you say "Number X is greater than number Y"?
18 is greater than 16
nomina 18 tes oli grais nominus 16
(The greater number) (18) (to be) (more) (grand) (the lower number) (16)

To say more you use Oli
however, to say a little more (barely noticeable), you use Chiru
To say less you use Queil
to say a little less (barely noticeable) you use Pefo.


-----------------------
Ownership
-----------------------

A bit hard to see, but a noun that put in front of another noun is the owned item. So please don't mistake Lazy's Loli with Loli's Lazy /kicked.

----------
CATEGORY
----------

A Ku-wai.ze;au-re| song is divided in several categories.
First is the red class [Keinez] and blue class [Luguz], which is the most common.

[KEINEZ]
Specification: Drums
Genre: Tribal
Codes: XIRON (all), PRODIA (Generally Espion)
Keinez songs tends to be very high spirited, accompanied by tribal drums. The very core of the music is the need of drums, and if not that, then need something equally loud. Keinez songs often put emphasis in the instrumentals, and as such, vocal is not -really- needed like Luguz. The singer that focuses in Keinez are generally dancers, presenting the view of their red tattooed body part to the spirits of red to show that 'they have no regrets nor shame'.

Keinez is the most offensive orientated. However, among Keinez spirits, there are some that prefer calming but high spirited music.
