me: hey this is a cool consequence of this linguistic structure that totally makes sense and is valid
me: i should tree diagram that to make it easier for visual learners to understand
me:
me an hour later: ugghhhhh
the cool totally sensical thing being modelled by this tree diagram is the fact that marking grammatical features on articles via prefixes rather than suffixes means that the language conforms to the general crosslinguistic tendency to place lexical features closer to the lexical root than grammatical ones
i was scratching my head over why this one area of the grammar would rely so heavily on prefixing and then i was like OH
@kibi this is so hecking cool (also what is sevensi?)
@lizardsquid uhh lemme see what i already have online (it's not much yet unfortunately)
- the current official dictionary (very limited lexicon atm) is here: http://langdev.xyz/dictionary/?language=osv-0012
- lots of infos on the (hypothesized; non-canonical) parent languages are here: http://langdev.xyz/languages/7c/
- information on the script is here: https://github.com/langdev-project/langdev-unicode/blob/master/02%20Jastu-Sevensi.md
- the (scattered) github repo is here: https://github.com/langdev-project/jsv/tree/master/svi/osv
but there's a LOT of information which isn't online yet which is what i'm working on now
