Word Order

Normal Word Order

The normal Word Order is SVO. 

 |ig gwüt | dötra| tazaxa .   
 |Subject | Verb | Object
 The Man kills the Animal .

Questions

In Question Sentences the Word Order is inverted to OVS.This feature is inherited from saruzh and does not appear in proto-Üxasi and some dialects, where different intonation is used instead. 

 | tazaxa | dötra| ig gwüt ?   
 | Object | Verb | Subject
 The Man kills the Animal ? (lit: The Animal kills the Man ?)

Adjectives

Adjectives always follow the Nouns they describe.The ending vocal of an adjectives matches the ending of the Noun, if the adjective ends with a consonant, an a is interjected. Nouns can be used as Adjectives. 

röga bitafa
a blue kingdom

gwüt djülat
an animalistic(savage) man

Possession

Possession follows the Possessee-Possessor Order: 

Duwafa Üxasi
Language (of the) Üxa

Morphology

Nominative Case

Nouns in the Nominative Case remain unchanged. 

röga
Kingodm

Accusative Case

The accusative case is used to mark the object in a sentence.It is formed by adding ta- as a prefix 

ig gwüt dötra tazaxa
the man kills the animal

Genetive Case

The Genetive Case marks a word, usually a noun, as modifying another word, also usually a noun—thus, indicating an attributive relationship of one noun to the other noun.In Üxa this relation is usually possesee-possessor. It is formed by adding the suffixes -si or -isi (if the last letter is a consonant) to the possessor.If the possessor is also the object of the sentence it also takes on the accusative taß prefix. 

Duwafa Üxasi
Language (of the) Üxa.

Üt gruwu ig duwafa taüxasi
I speak the Üxa language.

Plurals

Plurals are divided into definite and indefinite plurals. The indefinite Plural refers to a multitude of uncertain size, while the definite plural refers to a ,multitude of certain size. The Indefinite plural is constructed by adding the plural marker na in front of the word. 

na gwüt
a multitude of men, a lot of men

The na takes precedenced over any other particles placed in front of the word (such as the article ig). 

ig na gwüt
the multitude of men

For the definite Plural the word indicating the defined amount (e.g. a number) is placed before the word. 

ćim gwüt
3 men

üdrö gwüt
5 men (lit: a hand of men)

Verbs

Present Tense

Verbs in the present tense take on the endings -ö (if male) or -ön (if female).Personal pronouns do not affect the verb, it remains unchanged. 

üt bazö. nimi bazön. füwa bazö
I sit. You(f) sit. They sit

Preterite Tense

The Preterite Tense indicates that an event/action took place or was completed in the past. It is formed by adding -na (m) -ni (f) to the infinitive. 

üt bazuna. nimi bazuni. füwa bazuna
I sat. You(f) sat. They sat

Pluperfect Tense

The Pluperfect Tense indicates that an event/action took place or was completed at a time earlier than a time in the past already referred to.

It is formed by using the verb wruda/wrudi (had) with the preterite form of the verb. 

üt wruda bazuna.nimi wrudi bazuni.füwa bazuna 
I had sat.You(f) had sat.They had sat.

Future Tense

Future tense Verbs take on the endings -ü (m) or -ün (f). 

üt bazü. nimi bazün. füwa bazü
I will sit. You(f) will sit. They will sit

Passive

Verbs are turned passive by adding ta- as a prefix. 

üt finuna -> üt tafinuna
I gave -> was given

nimi finön -> nimi tafinön
You give -> You are given

Causative

The Causative indicates that a subject either causes someone or something else to do or be something. It is formed by adding the verb datu in it's preterite form (datuna).In the pluperfect it is placed after wruda. 

üt wruda datuna bazuna taX  
I had caused X to sit.

nimi datuna finön taüt
You cause me to give

Imperative

Imperative = Infintive. 

bazu !
Sit !

Vocabulary Influences

The biggest foreign influence on Saruzh historically came from the saruzh language, though loanwords from aydnirian and other languages also exist.
