Erytheian

The city for conlangs

Erytheian (also called Old Erytheian), is a conlang based on Latin. It was the official language of the Kingdom of Baetica, an independent state in the south of the Iberian Peninsula.

As a romlang, it is closely related to languages such as Portuguese, Catalan, Italian, and also to other romlangs. This language was spoken around the centuries 7th to 9th.

[edit] Grammar

The Grammar of Erytheian is essentially the one of its predecessor, Latin, but with some simplifications. The case system has been simplified, with only three cases: Nominative, Accusative and Ablative, since Dative and Genitive have merged into Ablative. The similarities among the three remaining cases have caused the speakers to use analytical methods instead.
