The Ora Language
-------------------------

Words are composed of 'triads'
Each triad takes the form of CVC or VCV
Triad forms always alternate
Vowels and consonants come in 'dark' and 'light'
Sound pairs within a triad must balance: one dark, one light

sounds:
- Vowels
.dark: ü ö ä ï 
.light: o a e i 
- Consonants
.dark: t p d f g k j s
.light: r w z l v n m y

Subject-verb-object grammar
Verb conjugation is simple case/subject agreement suffix
Two forms of each, depending on the final triad of the word being conjugated
Pronoun can be dropped for simple sentences where basic pronoun is used: ilömek-igä. (You fly.)

	Pronoun		Past		Present		Future
---------------------------------------------------------------
1st	ilä		itä/til		igä/gil		ikä/kil
2nd 	jän		jön/öji		jün/üji		jïn/ïji
3rd	ekö		etö/tev		epö/pev		efö/fev

Possessive suffix is -nim/inö (depending on previous triad)
Plural suffix is -gol/ogä
Noun forms of verbs made with -kar/akä
Adverbs/adjectives always agree with suffix of the verb/noun.

Genetive case (such as 'of the/of' in English) is in the form of prefix imö/mög (often used in names/titles or as an origin referent, cf. Gäntal Mögorö, "Gäntal of Orö")

Compound words that break triad alteration can be 'glued' with öta/töv

Questions are always predicated by the preamble 'kïz', and can be paired with one of the question words or used to turn the verb of the sentence into a query. 'Kïz ilömek-igä?' (Do you fly?)

'Ezü'/'zük' (no) can be used as a negative modifier to verbs or even whole sentences. 'Ezü ilömek-igä.' (You do not fly). Sometimes this modifier is even used in compound nouns to indicate a negative state, as with 'anti-' in English, for example 'mog' (matter)/'mogezü' (antimatter)

The fulcrum 'h'/'u': in order to maintain word flow, an exception to the triad construction is allowed in the form of the fulcrum 'h'. When a VCV triad in a new word follows a VCV triad from the previous word, it takes on a leading 'h' consonant. Similarly the U is used in paired CVC/CVC situations. The H/U is never included in standard spellings, except with some compound words.
