The '''Caseyan Language''' (Caseyan: Кăзèйски езыкэнзy [[KAPSKer Industrie-Norm/9201-2|''Kăzèjski jezïkənzu'']] [kɐˈzɛjski jɛzɨkənzu]) is a constructed language spoken in eastern [[Antarctica (Continent)|Antarctica]] — most notably [[Casey]] where it was also first observed in. It is one of the first known indigenous Antarctican languages and has official status in Casey. It's a mostly religious and poetic language. | |||
The language's vocabulary is largely derived from a plethora of languages such as Russian, Icelandic, German, Toki Pona, Ukrainian and Italian. It is written in the Caseyan alphabet. | The language's vocabulary is largely derived from a plethora of languages such as Russian, Icelandic, German, Toki Pona, Ukrainian and Italian.

Proper are roughly declined like nouns, except that they dont have any singular or nominative ending. In Nominative Singular the word stays the same and in every Singular form only the case ending is added. | |||

Casey is highly inflecting, so every declined/conjucated form of a word is usually unique and matches with only one grammatical category. Because of this, the word order in sentences is not as important as in English. | Casey is highly inflecting, so every declined/conjucated form of a word is usually unique and matches with only one grammatical category. Because of this, the word order in sentences is not as important as in English. While the standard word order is Subject-Verb-Object, this order is often changed for emphasis, lyrical rhythm or ease of rhyme-finding. This only really works without difficulties in short sentences though, as certain multi-clause sentences require a specific word order. When saying "Bernhard loves Jessica" in English, the meaning of the sentence can be changed by simply shuffling around the words, so "Jessica loves Bernhard" would change the sentence's semantics drastically, because the proper names ''Bernhard'' and ''Jessica'' don't have any features that indicate whether they are subject or object, although this could technically be resolved by using stress in spoken language. All of this does not apply to Caseyan. In the sentence "Бèрнхард λиyбÿтно Дшèсикăио" ''Bèrnkhard liubütno Džèsikaio'' ("Bernhard loves Jessica") the ending –ио indicates that ''Дшèсикă'' is the object in this sentence. This allows the speaker to change the word order to e.g. "Дшèсикăио λиyбÿтно Бèрнхард" ''Džèsikaio liubütno Bèrnkhard'' ("''Jessica'' loves Bernhard"). This easily works in simple sentences like this, however in longer sentences the speaker might be somewhat limited, for it must be clear what noun is responsible for what verb. The only way to figure this out is intuition. | ||
