	== ~~Etymology~~ ==		== History ==
	The language name derives directly from the Latin word for 'exile', suggesting the speakers were somehow transported to and transmuted to be able to live on Earth. After becoming Christianized in the region of North Africa, they were driven to ~~Spanish~~, so they are indeed exiles twice over. Ultimately from {{mn\|la\|exsul\|t=exile (person)}}, it came to refer to "a person in exile ~~in Spain~~, after having been exiled ~~on Earth~~."		{{Main\|Ckul/History}}
			The language name derives directly from the Latin word for 'exile', suggesting the speakers were somehow transported to and transmuted to be able to live on Earth. After becoming Christianized in the region of North Africa, they were driven to Spane, so they are indeed exiles twice over. Ultimately from {{mn\|la\|exsul\|t=exile (person)}}, it came to refer to "a person in exile on Earth, after having been exiled from Pandora."

			This sad tale continues for the Ckul. Their exile in the Atlas mountains was followed by an exile to Muslim Spain. Later, most Ckul migrated to Central America, where their minority status continues to hamper their lives to this day.

+Ckul has singular, dual, plural.  All are formed by prefix:
-=== Affixes ===
+Apart from these few forms and the prenouns, almost every other affix in the language is able to precede or follow its head.  When it is not ambiguous, heads and their modifiers may be some distance apart.  This means the language is moderately to heavily non-configurational.  When attributive, adjectives agree with their noun-head.  When predicative, they use the lexical form.  There is no gender.
 === Nouns ===
 Ckul nouns show three case endings (absolutive, ergative, and dative), and two case-like structures (genitive and topical).  There are three numbers: singular, dual, and plural.

+Lexical entries for verbs look different from other words because the contain middle dots where the second and third infix locations are.  TAM particles are typically infixes in the verb, though some are exclusively suffixes and other exclusively prefixing.  There is a slight tendency to put the verb last, but it is not a majority of utterances.  Verbs are strictly transitive or intransitive, and may not delete an argument unless it is very clear from context (e.g. imperatives, or after a topic has been set).
