Cukish language: Difference between revisions

Cukish describes different types of invariable words. The most used is the copulative suffix -ka, equivalent to the Staynish "and", used to indicate that two different words or phrases perform the same function in the syntactic context. In enumeration contexts, formal Staynish and Impelanzan use commas to indicate the different elements of the aformentioned enumeration, with the last term being preceded by "and" ("New Leganés, the Oblivion Islands ''and'' Shoneria"). There are two possibilities in Cukish: the first one is, essentially, the same structuring Staynish uses ("Livá Leganéasle, Etomúrni Çéqirle Shonerialé''ka''"), but there is a second possibility, which is indicating every term with a -ka ("Livá Leganeaslé''ka'' EtomurniEtomúrni Çeqirlé''ka'' Shonerialé''ka''"). This proceeding has been falling in disuse during the last centuries: it was the original way to enumerate, but it has been progressively assimilated by the Staynish influence following the Morstaybishlian rule of most Cukish-speaking areas. It is still used in very formal contexts, but is rarely attested.
