Grammar

Nouns

Plural Forms

In Capàyec, nouns have different endings for every case, number, and gender. The four noun cases are Nominative, Genitive, Accusative, and Vocative. Masculine nouns typically end with a consonant or long vowel, in which case an "n" is added between the noun stem and the plural marker "s"

jardì - garden --> jardins - gardens

campeyò - champion --> campeyons - champions

Most indefinite feminine nouns end with "ã", and exceptions are very rare. The plural form of feminine nouns in created by adding an "i" to the end of the word, thus changing its sound as well.

cartã - card --> cartãi - cards

Definitiveness

Nouns can either be definite or indefinite. The masculine definitiveness marker in the singular form is "õ", and in the plural, it's "i"

õ jardì - the garden --> i jardins - the gardens

The feminine nouns' definitiveness marker in the singular form is an "ã" in front of, and an "a" attached to the noun.

cartã - card --> carta - the card

The plural form is created by changing the "ã" in front of the noun into an "e", and adding an "i" to the end of the word.

carta - the card --> e cartai - the cards

If a noun is definite and starts with a vowel, an "h" with a hyphen is added to the beginning of it.

õ h-om - the man , ã h-autua - the car

​The Genitive case

The Genitive case is used only when the speaker desires to signify posession, applying one of the Genitive markers -on, -ion, -an, -ian to the end of the noun marking the posessor, that is, if the noun is definite.

ã langa - the language --> ã langan

e langai - the languages --> e languian (the "u" is inserted to de-palatalize the "g")

Indefinite nouns get the Genitive prefixes "ta" (for singular) and "ti" (for plural), similar to Spanish "de"

langã - (a) language --> ta langã - of (a) language

langãi - languages --> ti langãi - of languages

​The Accusative case

The Accusative case is used to mark the object of the sentence. The Accusative case markers are -m for singular, and -ms for plural nouns. The /m/ sounnd is usually not pronounced, however it might affect the preceeding vowel's sound.

Giu veig e montanyams. /d͡ʒu ve:ʒ e montaɲə̃s/ - I see the mountains.

A h-eit as demandet ã questam? /æhe:t͡ʃ as dəmandet ə ke:stɨ̃/ - Have you asked the question? or Did you ask the question?

The Vocative case

The rarely used Vocative case is used for exclamations and calls. The Vocative markers are -eu, -ebi, -ea, and -eba.

​ligã - girl --> Ligea! - Guuuurl!

leg - kid --> Yaltã, leguebi! - Hey, kids!

The following table sums up all the case endings for regular nouns. m-masculine f-feminine s-singular p-plural i-indefinite d-definite

​Other nouns, like the ones that end with -ciò, -iò or -aa have different endings in different cases.

Nous ending with -ciò, -siò, and -tiò can only be feminine.

The ones ending in -taa, -daa, and -aa can only feminine too.

​Stress in Words

Normally, (when the word ends with a vowel or any consonant, except n or m) the stress falls on the penultimate syllable. Grave accents modify the length of the vowel they are assigned to, and also change the stress of the word.

Verbs

Verbs in Capàyec come in three tenses: past, present, and future,

two numbers: singular and plural,

three persons: first, second, and third,

three moods: indicative, subjunctive, and impperative,

two aspects: perfective and imperfective,

and two vioces: active and passive.

Verbs have four endings in their infinitive form: -ar, -re, -er, and -ir. The four endings are categorized into three groups based on conjugation, they are: -ar, -re, and -er+-ir.

​Indicative

Present

In Capàyec Indicative Present verbs may indicate an action that is happening right now and probably with continue, a verb that is happening right now, or an action that goes on regularly.

Past Perfect (Pasatã Compossã)

This past form is used to signify situations, that:

• have just happened, not long ago
• have happened and still go on
• are linked some way to the present

​Formation: conjugate the auxiliary verb aure (meaning to have) in the present tense according to the subject, and link the past participle of the desired verb after it.

Conjugation of the verb aure

	s	p
1st	au	am
2nd	as	apt
3rd	ha	ant

The past participle is formed by dropping the infinitive endings, -ar, -re, -er, -ir and replacing them with -at, -et, -it, -it for singular subjects, and -ats, -ets -its, -its for plural subjects.

Past Indefinite (Pasatã Foartã/Pasatã Indefinitã)

This type of past is used to signify situations, that:

• happened a long time ago, or happened before a situation described with the Past Perfect tense
• happened several times
• are not linked to the present

​Formation: verbs are conjugated differently according to their ending.

Many irregularities occur.

Future

The future tense is used to express situations that have not happened yet or will happen. Formation: conjugate the auxiliary verb yer (meaning to go) and add the infinitive form of the desired verb after.

Conjugation of the verb yer

	s	p
1st	vuy	vam
2nd	vas	vete
3rd	va	vant

The other way to express the future tense is by adding the words plhior or cãmtãm (meaning later) to the end of the sentence. Using these words imply that the speaker is not sure whether the situation will happen.

Joà va limpiar ã casam? - Is John going to clean the house?

En limpia cãmtãm. - He will clean it later.

Subjunctive

The subjunctive mood is used to express a view, wish, emotion, possibility, obligation, or judgement.

Queres que giu prepare õ sõpãrem? - Do you want me to prepare the dinner?

Saya atihe! - Let it be that way!

Subjunctive is used with negative sentences too, unlike in Spanish.

Formation: the verbs ending in -ar recieve the "e" conjugation, and the ones ending in -re, -er, and -ir get the "a" conjugation.

Top: the "e" conjugation, bottom: the "a" conjugation

	s	p
1st	-e	-em
2nd	-es	-ept
3rd	-i	-ent
1st	-a	-am
2nd	-as	-apt
3rd	-a	-antt

Past Tense

Past Perfect: the verb aure is put in its present subjunctive form: aya, ayas, ai, ayam, ayat, ayant'​'

​Past Indefinite: a different conjugation is used. One for the -ar ending, and an other one for the -re, -er, and -ir endings.

Top: -ar Bottom: -re, -er, -ir

	s	p
1st	-ase	-asem
2nd	-aste	-astes
3rd	-ase	-asent
1st	-ese	-esem
2nd	-este	-estes
3rd	-ese	-esent

Conditional

The Conditional tense is used to express probability, possibility, or wonder.

Formation: a different cojugation is used or all verb endings.

All verbs' endings in the present conditional tense

	s	p
1st	-ìa	-ìem
2nd	-ìes	-ìete
3rd	-ìa	-ìent

Adjectives

In Capàyec, adjectives can act as masculine nouns, taking up their noun cases. Otherwise, they can only take up the endings of the noun they describe (no matter if the noun is in the Genitive, Accusative, or Vocative case) in the Nominative case.

Coca pomãm queres? Ã grandam. - Which apple do you want? The big one.

Õ xaqueid ã viyeja daman ver hua. - The jacket of the old lady is green.

​Pronouns

Personal Pronouns

Personal Pronouns are used to identify people or things without saying their proper name. They typically mark the subject of a sentence.

Personal Pronouns

	s	p
1st	giu	noap
2nd	eit	voap
3rd	hua/hia	hic
inanimate	õ / ã	i / e
"one"	un	mhãs

• õ and ã mean it, the plural form is i / e (masc. / fem.)
• Un and its plural mhãs mean (some)one
• eit is used as the informal singular "you", and voap is both the plural informal and the formal singular "you".
• hic is also used as the formal plural "you"
• giu is shortened to gi' when infront of a word that begins with a vowel

Direct Object Pronouns

Direct Object Pronouns mark the Direct Object of the sentence, as it is in its name.

Direct Object Pronouns

	s	p
1st	em	nõ
2nd	et	võ
3rd	hum	hem
inanimate	en	ens
(some)one	um	mhãm

em, et, nõ and võ are applied a shorter form, m, t, n and v, if they are:

• infront of a word beginning with a vowel.
• behind of a word ending with a vowel.
• infront of a word beginning with a vowel, and behind of a word ending with a vowel*

Indirect Object Pronouns

These Pronouns are also sometimes called Dative Pronouns, since they were formed by adding the now unused "prã" Dative prefix to the Direct Object Pronouns. Spoken language changed their pronunciation over the years, thus the spelling was changed as well.

Indirect Object Pronouns

	s	p
1st	em	en
2nd	et	eb(i)
3rd	el/lay	li/ lai
inanimate	pãn	pãns
(some)one	phrù	puas

El daig sãipem. - I give him a book. --> Po en daig - I give it to him

​Reflexive Pronouns

Reflexive Pronouns are formed by adding the Adjectives mèm and mèms after the Indirect Object Pronouns.

Giu amu h-em mèm. - I love myself.

A voap amapt võ mèms? - Do you love yourselves?

Demonstrative Pronouns

Demonstrative Pronouns clear up which object the speaker is talkinng about. If the Pronoun is followed by the corresponding noun, that noun must be in its definite form.

Xa dama. - That lady.

Demonstrative Pronouns

	m. s.	m. p.	f. s.	f. p.

which?	co/s/ca/que?
how many/ much?	cambè?
where to?	ahõnde?
when?	cõnde?

Relative Pronouns

Relative Pronouns are used to refer to an antedecent that means it comes before the thing we want to refer to/ ask.

Relative Pronouns

what	que/m
who	qui
whom	quim
why / because	per que
where	onde
which	co/s/ca/que
as many/much	cunte/cantu
where to	a h-onde
when	conde
how	comu

Is this how you want to do it? - Ix comu en quers fair hua?

Is he whom we want? - Hua quem querem?

​Possessive Pronouns

Possessive Pronouns mark that the noun with the Pronoun is in the possession of someone or something. Keep in mind that these pronouns are modified or 'conjugated' according to the noun they are assigned to, not by the possessor.

Possessive Pronouns

	m. s.	m. p.	f. s.	f. p.
giu	mò	i me*	ma*	e me*

hua/hia	sò	i se*	sa*	e se*
noap	noi	i noi	noi	e noi
voap	voi	i voi	voi	e voi
hic	loi	i loi	loi	e loi

• If these forms stand before a noun that begins with a vowel, an "h" with a hyphen is added to the beginning of the noun.

om - man --> sò om - his/her man / u h-om - your man

The Pronouns may also appear after the corresponding noun, changing the meaning. This formula is more frequently used when the thing or person spoken of is not present.

Mò jefe. - My boss. --> Õ/Ix jefe mò. - The/this boss of mine.

Possessive Pronouns

	m. s.	m. p.	f. s.	f. p.

no parc - in the park --> no parc è - in a park / in a (certain) park

Syntax

Though Capàyec, like most of the other Romance Languages, is SVO, other patterns do exist as well. The following sentence carries the SVO pattern.

Joà manj pomãm​- John eats an apple.

Sentences that describe existence using the verb hiare, haipre, or the 3rd person singular of etre (hia, hua) , including sentences that used the passive voice, may have a modified structure in the present tense. In these cases verbs go to the end of the sentence, so they become SOV.

Õ cadeu recipet hua. - The present is recieved.

Õ cadeu fos recipet. / Õ cadeu ha statu recipet. - The present was recieved. / The present has been recieved.

Nõ parc molts càns hoc. - There are a lot of dogs in the park.

The SOV structure is also sometimes used at sentences with a typical subjunctive structure if the object is definite.

Giu quer que Joà mange pomãm. --> Giu quer que Joà ã pomam mange.

​M entristeit que nu t playta manjer pomãms. --> M entristeit que manjer e pomams nu t playta.
