Grammar

Avalonese has 3 grammatical genders: Masculine, Feminine, and Neuter.

Masculine singular nouns end in -OU, Feminine singular nouns in -AU, and Neuter singular nouns in -EU

And Masculine plural nouns end in -OUN, Feminine plural nouns in -AUN, and Neuter plural nouns in -EUN

Determiners end in the near-same ending trend as the nouns, such as The (Lo/La/Le/Lon/Lan/Len), or That/Those (Lou/Lau/Leu/Loun/Laun/Leun)

Adjectives end in -I, Adverbs end in -O,

Verbs merge with the Pronoun and have 6 main tenses;

"i" (I go/igraus) is marked by -AU-

"you" (you eat/kouias) is marked by -A-

"he" (he sleeps/dourvois) is marked by -OI-

"she" (she dreamed/soungaif) is marked by -AI-

'it" (it happens/hoikazeis) is marked by -EI-

"they" (they will do/furmouc) is marked by -OU-

"we" (we watch/ueirceus) is marked by -EU-

"y'all" (y'all see/vixuans) is marked by -AN-

And any unspecified ones are marked by -R

the present tense is marked by -S,

the past tense is marked by -F,

the future tense is marked by -C,

the past preterite "done" tense is marked by -N,

the gerund or "-ing" tense is marked by -ST,

The form of verbs called the infinitive; "to do", for example, would end in an -I.

If any vowels were to duplicate in the process, an M would be placed between them. If any consonants were to duplicate in the process, an I would be added between them.

History

Modern Avalonese (or just Avalonese)

Modern Avalonese is the current version of Avalonese spoken on the EarthMineCraft.NetWork server, and is often just called Avalonese for simplicity. It is very similar in the way German is in which Avalonese is spoken by political figures and idiots who learn it in school but can't use it because it's only spoken in a single continent. However, unlike German, Avalonese has a much higher appeal due to concise grammatical rules, and has been starting to increase in usage and popularity throughout north american, and on the server. However, there are sadly still bums that don't put in the effort to learn it, and prefer using english. This lead to the creation of Anglicized Avalonese, the odd donkey of Avalon.

An example of Modern Avalonese thus follows:

Avalonese: "Esti, ou nao esti ei? leu es le denmacieu. Tcao esteis pao sfoblei en le mendeu esti hatikeur bou lan arkaun oi zagoun dei loukui bugoi, ou pronti barmeun kau u marou dei malei dafeiroun, oi, bou hatikast, zentcar hinc"

English: "To be, or not to be? That is the question. Whether it's nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And, by opposing, end them"

Extent of Avalonese

Historic Avalonese Dialects of Eastern Canada

Avalonese as a language is very centralized within Eastern Canada, it originates from the Island of Newfoundland whose inhabitants migrated from Eastern Africa for religious reasons, and its host nation with the same name of Avalon, however due to conquest of the region and for communication efficiency, many other cultures have adopted the Avalonese language either as a language secondary to the national language or cultures choosing to override their current language with Avalonese. Some have even abandoned their previous culture and define themselves now as only Avalonese.

There are 10 major different dialects in the region, each with unique attributes and differences. The dialect with the highest population would have to be the Canadian dialect. However, Avalonese is only a secondary language to their national language of Canadian, and there are more Avalonese speakers overall in the second largest being the Metropolitan Dialect in that of Eastern Newfoundland. This dialect is regarded as the default for many Avalonese speakers due to its growing film industry and also for hosting the Capital of Avalon; Dildo. Metropolitan Avalonese speakers often poke fun at the American Dialect of Avalonese; the Black Sheep of the Avalonese dialects which takes from the traditional American national language of American in its ugly use of the "ur" and "uh" sounds that Avalonese speakers in general like to call 'puiast um evou', Or, in it's feudal english translation "Pooping an Egg".

Ancient Avalonese

Ancient Avalonese is the language the Avalonese settlers used before and slightly after arriving on Newfoundland Island, nobody speaks it as a first language today but it is used in religious affairs and gatherings based on the nation's religion Pissism and many Shites have to learn it as a second language in order to read out sermons correctly, it is also one of the first requirements for becoming the Poop. Many ancient relics are engraved with Ancient Avalonese such as the Pee Pee monument.

An example of Ancient Avalonese thus follows:

Ancient Avalonese: "የእንግሊዝኛ ቋንቋ መጥፎ ነው እና ህዝቡ በጣም ሰነፍ ከመሆኑ በፊት ከአቫሎን መዝገበ ቃላት ቋንቋ መሰደድ አለበት።"

English: "English is very stinky and deserves to be exiled from the Avalonese lexicon before the commonfolk get too lazy"
