'''Adamic''' (אדמס קעל, ''ādamja qafl'', [[w:Help:IPA|[àːˈdämi̯a ˈɦäfl]]]) is a [[Philosophical language|philosophical]] [[ab interiori language]] of the [[w:mesolithic|Mesolithic]] that consists on naming roots and applying grammatical patterns through [[w:Nonconcatenative morphology|introflection]].
 
It's cultivated form is known as [[Canonic Code|Canonic Code]], where the transitional tables take hold over grammatical features.

====Notes====
* The WALS metrics consider solely ejective, implosive, and glottalized sonorants as "glottalized consonants"; agreement to include number and person, and tense/aspect/mood (TAM) to be one category within a "category-per-word value" [...]
==Phonology==
Adamic can have as many as 24 [[w:Consonant|consonants]] and 12 [[w:Vowel|vowels]], with [[w:Allophone|allophonic]] [[w:Tone (linguistics)|tones]] liable to manifestate depending on the position of the [[w:Stress(linguistics)|stress]]. Its syllable structure of ''C<sup>2</sup>V<sup>2</sup>C<sup>2</sup>/C<sup>3</sup>(V)'' supports up to 3 sounds in a [[w:Consonant cluster|consonant cluster]] intervocalically and 2 elsewhere as [[w:Syllable#Onset|onset]] or [[w:Syllable#Coda|coda]] (e.g. ''qfál'' "saying", ''aktvú'' "I cut", and ''ka’n'' "year"); also, it does not accept [[w:Triphthong|triphthongs]]. The most remarkable phonetic and phonological features include the presence of:
* [[w:Emphatic consonant|emphatic consonants]].
* a simple vowel system composed of ''i'', ''u'', and ''a'', with [[w:Vowel length|phonemic length]].
* predetermined set of vowels available depending on the speaker's gender.
* systematic sound transitions dictated by a [[Adamic Code#Coloration Table|coloration table]].
===Consonants===
Adamic has 24 or 18 phonemic consonants, depending on whether emphatics are disregarded. The special status of the glottalized series is due their phonological equivalence with the plain stops (k, g, p, b, t, d) within the language, despite being genuine inheritances from the ejective/implosive sounds of the [[Diluvian Code|Diluvian]] and [[Pangaean Code|Pangaean]] Codes. Anyhow, even if optionally excluded, they may still appear as allophones of their counterparts, specially next to /ʔ/.

====Notes====

* Adamic identifies "phonological coordinates" within its consonantal inventory, classifying terms into relevant categories of <small>VOICE</small>, <small>MANNER</small>, and <small>ARTICULATION</small>. Even sequences among its subdivisions follow a predetermined order, being ''voiceless>voiced'' in <small>VOICE</small>, ''occlusive>sonorant>turbulent'' in <small>MANNER</small>, and ''guttural>labial>dental'' in <small>ARTICULATION</small>. As not all members of those sets correspond to the phonetic qualities attributed to them (with the exception of <small>VOICE</small>'s members), the last two sequences are respectively referred to as the ''KHS-type'' and the ''IUA-type'', with their proper compositions being named as expected: ''K-type'', ''H-type'', ''S-type'', ''I-type'', ''U-type'', and ''A-type'' in order.

====Notes====


Adamic has a basic 3 vowel system with length distinction yielding 18 units of monophthongs, diphthongs, and long dipthongs. Alternatively, in the poetic register, diphthongs may become monophthongs by introducing the new qualities of /e/, /o/, and /ɨ/~/ʉ/, thus resulting in 6 qualities and 36 vocalic units as a whole. In sequence, the masculine register of Adamic is here treated as possessing the following monophthongs:
* The WALS metrics<ref name="WALS">https://wals.info/feature</ref> hold particular definitions in each category of their own, considering for example solely ejective, implosive, and glottalized sonorants as "glottalized consonants"; agreement to include number and person; and tense/aspect/mood (TAM) to be one category within a "category-per-word value".

Adamic has 24 or 18 phonemic consonants, depending on whether emphatics are disregarded. The special status of the glottalized series is due their phonological equivalence with the plain stops (k, g, p, b, t, d) within the language, despite being genuine inheritances from the ejective/implosive sounds of the [[Diluvian Code|Diluvian]] and [[Pangaean Code|Pangaean]] Codes. Anyhow, even if optionally excluded, they may still appear as allophones of their counterparts, specially next to /ʔ/.

As not all members of those sets correspond to the phonetic qualities attributed to them (with the exception of <small>VOICE</small>'s members), the last two sequences are respectively referred to as the ''KHS-type'' and the ''IUA-type'', with their proper compositions being named as expected: ''K-type'', ''H-type'', ''S-type'', ''I-type'', ''U-type'', and ''A-type'' in order.

* Much like consonants, vowels in Adamic are positioned in the currents ''front>back>central'' (<small>POSITION</small>) and ''short>long'' (<small>LENGTH</small>); with the process exceptionally being known by the trigrammaton ''IAU'' or even the pentagrammaton ''IEAOU'', which may serve as alphabetic recitations when not symbols of cosmic order. Contrary to the consonantal series, though, long vowels tend to carry a non-phonemic rising pitch when stressed, and a falling pitch when unstressed, in order to further distinguish them from plain vowels; they also may generate new articulations of themselves depending on their arrangement and whether one's particular form of the Adamic Code puts prominence on the /i/ (feminine) or the /u/ (masculine) vowels, determined by sex/gender:
|- style="vertical-align: top;"

====Notes====
* Much like consonants, vowels in Adamic are positioned in the currents ''front>back>central'' (<small>POSITION</small>) and ''short>long'' (<small>LENGTH</small>); with the process exceptionally being known by the trigrammaton ''IAU'' or even the pentagrammaton ''IEAOU'', which may serve as alphabetic recitations when not symbols of cosmic order. Contrary to the consonantal series, though, long vowels tend to carry a non-phonemic rising pitch when stressed, and a falling pitch when unstressed, in order to further distinguish them from plain vowels; they also may generate new articulations of themselves depending on their arrangement and whether one's particular form of the Adamic Code puts prominence on the /i/ (feminine) or the /u/ (masculine) vowels, determined by sex/gender:
** /i, iː/ are the close front unrounded [i, iː].
*** /e, eː/ are the close-mid front unrounded [e, eː]. They are the respective products of the monophthongization of /i̯a/ and /ai̯/.
** /u, uː/ are the close back rounded [u, uː]
*** /o, oː/ are the close-mid back rounded [o, oː]. They are the respective products of the monophthongization of /u̯a/ and /au̯/.
** /a, aː/ are the open central unrounded [ä, äː], but may be pronounced as the open front unrounded [a, aː] or the open back rounded [ɒ, ɒː] if next to front and back vowels respectively.
*** /ɨ, ɨː/~/ʉ, ʉː/ are the close central unrounded~rounded [ɨ, ɨː]~[ʉ, ʉː], but may be pronounced as [y, yː]~[ɯ, ɯː]. They are the respective products of the monophthongization of /i̯u/ and /ui̯/ in the masculine U-register and /u̯i/ and /iu̯/ in the feminine I-register.

Adamic is highly [[w:Inflection|inflective]], [[w:Derivation|derivational]], and [[w:Reduplication|reduplicative]], alternating between [[w:Fusional language|fusional]] and [[w:Agglutinative language|agglutivative]] morphologies with an overly [[w:Analytic language|analytic]] [[w:Clause|clause]] [[w:Agreement (linguistics)|agreement]]. Its grammar, highly reminiscent of older Paleolithic Codes, can be summarized by 3 classes of morphemes:
* The letter <Qq> is assimilated to <Hh> after a voiced stop.
** e.g. ''ghīz'' /gɦiːz/ "four".
*** c.e.g. ''*gqīz'' /gɦiːz/ "four".


* The field [[w:Word stem|stem]], consisting on the arrangement consonants ('''''/''''') and vowels ('''''-''''') in a predefined order inside the root-pattern fields. Its primary morphological markers are a [[w:Semitic root|triliterate segment]] known as '''triconsonantal root''', and the '''patterns''', which are either modifications of the root structure or the addition of [[w:Transfix|transfixes]] into the triliterate form, also responsible for the [[w:Noun|nouns]] (edenic, prediluvian, and postdiluvian), [[w:Adjunct (grammar)|adjuncts]] ([[w:Adjective|adjectives]], [[w:Incorporation (linguistics)|incorporations]], [[w:Adverb|adverbs]], [[w:Expression (linguistics)|expressions]], [[w:Prefix|prefixes]], and [[w:Adposition|postpositions]]), and [[w:Verb|verbs]] ([[w:Finite verb|finite verbs]] and [[w:Nonfinite verb|infinite verbs]]) of the language.
* The letters <Jj> and <Ww> are exclusively used in derivation particles.
** e.g. ''-ja'' /i̯a/ "belonging to".
*** c.e.g. ''*-ia'' /i̯a/ "belonging to".


* The continuous [[w:Affix grammar|affix]], a simple connective with very limited [[w:Phonotactics|phonotactics]]. Its primary morphological marker is '''concatenation''', wherein it can be both a [[w:Prefix|prefix]] and a [[w:Suffix|suffix]], beyond responsible for the [[w:Comparison (grammar)|comparison]] and alternative derivational procedure of the language.
* Short and long vowels, if relevantly stressed, gain an accute (<V́>) and circumflex accent (<V̂>) respectively.
** e.g. ''-k-f-n-'' ''/u//'' ⇒ ''kúfn'' /ˈkufn/ or ''kûn'' /ˈkuːn/ "dog".
*** c.e.g. ''-k-f-n-'' ⇒ ''/-/'' ⇒ ''kun'' /kun/ "canine".


* The performative [[w:clitic|clitic]], interpreted as a marginal unit whose position is defined by a "vacuum space" ('''''_'''''). Its primary morphological marker is the '''triptote formula''', which is responsible for the [[w:Pronoun|pronouns]], [[w:Article (grammar)|articles]], and [[w:Grammatical particle|particles]] of the language.
*If relevantly  unstressed, long vowels are marked by macrons (<V̄>).
** e.g. ''-d-v-n-'' ''/-/'' ''dūv'' /duːv/ "biological".
*** c.e.g. ''-m-f-r-'' ''/-/'' ⇒ ''mur'' /mur/ "dead".

One of the most remarkable features of Adamic is its naming prowess by ackowledging a concept into triliteral form (e.g. the root ''-d-v-n-'' denoting "biology/evolution" via the similarity with [[w:Charles Darwin|''Darwin'']]). This is due the [[w:Triconsonantal root|Triconsonantal Root]], whose use may be summarized by including complex ideas within a sequence of consonants. In complement, the [[w:Semitic root|Patterns]] are responsible for specifying a subject within such broader meanings (e.g. the pattern ''(i)/aí/a/'' yielding ''daívan'' "biologist").

The process of triliteration can be easily demonstrated by the names of famous figures (fictional or not), due their association of feats. The transfiguration may be boundless and informal, or follow a select list of rules for further organization:
| ''qīq'' [[w:Help:IPA|/ɦiːɦ/]]
 
| /ɦ/
* '''Rule 0:''' Consonants are counted as first-class members, then vowels as second-class (except sounds akin to /a/), and finally semivowels as third-class members. All members being susceptible to be substituted by equivalent sounds.

| ''nun'' [[w:Help:IPA|/n̥un̥/]]
 
| //
Regarding a less specialized vocabulary, the rules differ. The [[Diluvian Code]], for one, is the main source of the Adamic lexicon, yielding a diverse list of lemmas for the basic vocabulary of the language; lemmas which are straightforward adaptations of its words.
| ''Nn''
 
|-
: ''hocar'' "fire" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-h-v-l-'' "fire" [Adamic].
| מ
 
| ''mūm'' [[w:Help:IPA|/muːm/]]
: ''qucar'' "sound/speech" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-q-f-l-'' "sound/speech" [Adamic].
| /m/
 
| ''Mm''
: ''yammuhar'' "sea" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-m-f-h-'' "sea" [Adamic].
 
In the sample above, the process involving the triliteration of Diluvian words is particular. Besides basic sound changes, such as the laryngeal following the currents /h/ > /h/ and /ħ/ > /ɦ/ (not /h/ in this case), or the particle /-t͡səɾ/ regularly transforming into /-l-/, it is noticeable that vowels are not treated discriminately, but are counted in order as much as consonants; instead, secondary  particles such as the ''ya-'' and ''-(c)ar'' in ''yammuhar'' are counted last and even neglected.
 
Another special class of triconsonantal roots is the one containing those influenced by the [[Pangaean Code]]. This class may either be secluded to abstract ideas or actions, or rarely include the borrowing of proper lexicon (e.g. ''-q-h-f-'' "animalism" in Adamic being from ''uħihu'' "animal" in Pangaean, rather than ''au'' "animal" in Diluvian). Diluvian influence is only relevant through phonological filters, which operate under other constraints, such as the medial member of a combination often being reserved to a glottal stop, and an epenthetic ''-r-'' or ''-l-'' being added in the third position (when not taken by the root) to mark a primordial or non-primordial construction respectively.
 
: ''n'' "instance" [Pangaean] ⇒ ''-n-’-r-'' "instance" [Adamic].
 
: ''na'' "nearness/society" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-n-’-l-'' "nearness/society" [Adamic].
 
: '''' "ancientness" [Pangaean] ⇒ ''kna'' "old age" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-k-’-n-'' "aging" [Adamic].
 
Other functionalities of triconsonantal roots include fusion, wherein the possessed element has the first member conserved and the second and third erased, while the possessive element has merely the medial member erased.
 
: ''-q-h-f-'' "animalism" + ''-p-’-r-'' "bearing" = ''-q-p-r-'' "ensnaring".
 
Regarding the broader formulas with patterns, some remarks can be made. Vowels (-) do not border each other; three consonants (///) will effectively render the medial one a vowel; vowels without a nucleous and/or coda tend to disappear even though  relevant; and by all means nouns consist of -/-/-/-, -///-, -/-/-/, /-/-/-, /-//, and //-/; adjuncts of /-/, -/-, -//, //-, /--, and --/; and verbs of -/-//, //-/-, /-/-/, -///-, /-//-, -//-/, -///, and ///-.
 
====Nouns====
 
Nouns are lexicalized by class, element, density, composition, classifier, and/or formality:
 
*thirty-six classes: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, Class 4, Class 5, Class 6, Class 7, Class 8, Class 9, Class 10, Class 11, Class 12, Class 13, Class 14, Class 15, Class 16, Class 17, Class 18, Class 18, Class 19, Class 20, Class 21, Class 22, Class 23, Class 24, Class 25, Class 26, Class 27, Class 28, Class 29, Class 30, Class 31, Class 32, Class 33, Class 34, Class 35, Class 36.
 
*six elements: solid, current, ethereal, elemental, igneous, and fluid.
 
*two densities: sparse and dense.
 
*three compositions: diffuse, insular, and concentrated.
 
*six classifiers: inanimated inhuman, animated human, diverse, generic, animated human, and animated inhuman.
 
*two formalities: informal and formal.
 
They can be divided into Prediluvian Nouns, with 1296 permutations  (<small>CLASS</small> x <small>ELEMENT</small> x <small>DENSITY</small> x <small>COMPOSITION</small>), Postdiluvian Nouns with 12 permutations, (<small>CLASSIFIER</small> x <small>FORMALITY</small>), and Edenic Nouns with 2 permutations (<small>∅</small>). In all circumstances, their number may double under an ubiquitious feature referred to as [[w:Construct state|state]]:
 
*two states: [[w:Absolute state|absolute]] and [[w:Construct state|construct]].
 
The grammatical state consists on the morphological formation triggered in exceptional syntactic constructions with the Triptote Formula (responsible for articles, pronouns, et cetera), wherein a transfix rearranges the root-pattern in order to fit it. The transfix is always a <small>DEFINITION</small> morpheme (e.g. the first vowel in the article ''iru'' "the"), and for this reason, highly abstract nouns such as those pertaining to the formula ''-/-/-/-'' and ''-///-'' (as well as non-finite verbs of formula ''-///''  and ''///-'') not only repudiate articles, but lack a proper construct form beyond ''-///-''. To exemplify the existence of articleless words, compare the genitive use against the gerund in ''adūna muri'' "biology of dying" and the noun in ''adūna ari maur'' "biology of death".

|-

| ו
| ''vūv'' [[w:Help:IPA|/vuːv/]]
| /v/
| ''Vv''
|}
|}
 
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Generally, a noun is given in the absolute state, but reformed to the construct state if case-marking is wished to be occulted. The word ''kûn'' "dog", for example, in the sentence ''kûniru'' "the dog" (<small>ABSOLUTE</small>) contains the article ''iru'' "the" attached, which emphasizes the nominative case; however, in ''kufin'' "the dog" (<small>CONSTRUCT</small>), there is no such marking, except partially by the inclusion of ''-i-'' (the first vowel of the article). This occurs because ''kûn'' (''kúfn'', ''kúun'', et cetera) is actually interpreted as the formula ''/-//'' (''k-fn''), programmed to become ''/-/V/'' (''k-fVn''). The process may be less straightforward in other instances:
|
 
: ''āvála'' "humanity" (-'-v-l-) ⇒ ''aūla'' "humanity" (-///-).
 
: ''(i)saíkat aru'' "a philosopher" (-s-k-t-) ⇒ ''iskat'' "a philosopher" (-//V/).
 
: ''babalú aru'' "an idea of confusion" (-b-b-l-) ⇒ ''babla'' "an idea of confusion" (/V//-).
 
=====Edenic Nouns=====
 
The most fundamental layers of meaning are encompassed by the Edenic Patterns. Through them, roots are easily morphed into abstract terms, such as the lemma ''ādáma'' "ancestry" out of the root ''-’-d-m-'' "ancestry". There is also a shorter form available with no semantic distinction, which ignores the two intermediary vowels and often vocalizes the medial consonant (except when there is a glottal stop elsewhere, which may disappear instead).

=====Postdiluvian Nouns=====
| /t/
 
| ''Tt''
Postdiluvian Nouns usually reinforce basic derivations from the roots, being concerned with concepts such as measurable abstractions and bare concretnesses. For example, from a root such as ''-q-h-f-'' "animalism", its essence can be extracted as ''qâhf'' "life", with classifier distinctions then expanding further contrast, as ''-k-’-n-'' "passage of time" yielding ''kâ’n'' "year", ''kû’n'' "old person", and ''kî’n'' "clock".

=====Prediluvian Nouns=====
===Root-Pattern===


Prediluvian Nouns are more complex, associated with vast nominal classes. A root such as ''-m-f-r-'' "death" can yield ''ímufar'' "poison", ''maífar'' "deceased", ''mafaúra'' "lifespan (until death)", et cetera.
One of the most remarkable features of Adamic is its naming prowess by ackowledging a concept into triliteral form (e.g. the root ''-d-v-n-'' denoting "biology/evolution" via the similarity with [[w:Charles Darwin|''Darwin'']]). This is due the [[w:Triconsonantal root|Triconsonantal Root]], whose use may be summarized by including complex ideas within a sequence of consonants. In complement, the [[w:Semitic root|Patterns]] are responsible for specifying a subject within such broader meanings (e.g. the pattern ''(i)/aí/a/'' yielding ''daívan'' "biologist"), with combinations also possible (e.g. the use of the root ''-m-f-h-'' "sea" in ''ūfhdaívan'' "marine biologist").

: e.g.<sub>3</sub> ''r'' and ''l'' can be achieved through liquid consonants, even if secondary characteristics are present. Therefore /ɾ/ ⇒ ''r'', and /ʎ/ ⇒ ''l''.


Verbs are conjugated by voice, person, mood, number, and aspect, or by form:

: e.g.<sub>6</sub> Absence of consonants word initially or at the end is interpreted as the presence of the glottal stop /ʔ/. Hebrew אדם "Adam", for example, becomes ''-’-d-m-'', whereas cases such as Sanskrit वेद "Veda" result in ''-v-d-z-'' "sacred narrative" for ''vaídaz'' "lore singer".

They can be divided into Finite Verbs, with 216 permutations (<small>VOICE<sub>F</sub></small> x <small>PERSON</small> x <small>MOOD</small> x <small>NUMBER</small> x <small>ASPECT<sub>F</sub></small>), and Non-finite Verbs, with 12 permutations (<small>VOICE<sub>N</sub></small> x <small>ASPECT<sub>N</sub></small>). In all circumstances, the number of the former may double to give way for [[w:Participle|participles]]:
: e.g.<sub>3</sub> ''Darwin'' yields ''-d-v-n-'' and not ''-d-r-v-'' or ''-d-r-n-'' for "biology", because /ɹ/ acts as a closed coda in the consonant cluster /ɹw/.

Emphasis marks stress ('''-'''), which distinguishes not only verbs and participles, but even [[w:Minimum Pair|minimun pairs]] with some nouns (e.g. the words ''asita'' /aˈsita/ "Philosophy" and ''ásita'' /ˈasita/ "been thinking").
: e.g.<sub>1</sub> ''Sōkratēs'' yields ''-s-k-t-'' for "philosophy".


=====Finite Verbs=====
: e.g.<sub>2</sub> ''Aristotélēs'' yields ''-’-r-t-'' for "logic", as every bare initial vowel in a syllable is considered to bear a glottal stop in Adamic.


Finite verbs are the most productive class of verbs, outperforming through their semantic range, capable for example of conjugating ''-m-f-r-'' "dying" into ''mafrú'' "I (willingly) die", ''amfúr'' "I (unwillingly) die", ''muarú'' "I force to kill", ''amûr'' "I am forced to kill", ''amurú'' "I kill", and ''mafúr'' "I am killed".
: e.g.<sub>3</sub> ''Lavoisier'' yields ''-l-v-z-'' for "chemistry".


{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"
Regarding a less specialized vocabulary, the rules differ. The [[Diluvian Code]], for one, is the main source of the Adamic lexicon, yielding a diverse list of lemmas for the basic vocabulary of the language; lemmas which are straightforward adaptations of its words.
! rowspan="3" |

In the sample above, the process involving the triliteration of Diluvian words is particular. Besides basic sound changes, such as the laryngeal following the currents /h/ > /h/ and /ħ/ > /ɦ/ (not /h/ in this case), or the particle /-t͡səɾ/ regularly transforming into /-l-/, it is noticeable that vowels are not treated discriminately, but are counted in order as much as consonants; instead, secondary  particles such as the ''ya-'' and ''-(c)ar'' in ''yammuhar'' are counted last and even neglected.
! Ind.Per.
 
! Jus.Imp.
Another special class of triconsonantal roots is the one containing those influenced by the [[Pangaean Code]]. This class may either be secluded to abstract ideas or actions, or rarely include the borrowing of proper lexicon (e.g. ''-q-h-f-'' "animalism" in Adamic being from ''uħihu'' "animal" in Pangaean, rather than ''au'' "animal" in Diluvian). Diluvian influence is only relevant through phonological filters, which operate under other constraints, such as the medial member of a combination often being reserved to a glottal stop, and an epenthetic ''-r-'' or ''-l-'' being added in the third position (when not taken by the root) to mark a primordial or non-primordial construction respectively.

Regarding the broader formulas with patterns, some remarks can be made. Vowels (-) do not border each other; three consonants (///) will effectively render the medial one a vowel; vowels without a nucleous and/or coda tend to disappear even though  relevant; and by all means nouns consist of -/-/-/-, -///-, -/-/-/, /-/-/-, /-//, and //-/; adjuncts of /-/, -/-, -//, //-, /--, and --/; and verbs of -/-//, //-/-, /-/-/, -///-, /-//-, -//-/, -///, and ///-.

====Nouns====
 
Nouns are lexicalized by class, element, density, composition, classifier, and/or formality:
 
*thirty-six classes: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, Class 4, Class 5, Class 6, Class 7, Class 8, Class 9, Class 10, Class 11, Class 12, Class 13, Class 14, Class 15, Class 16, Class 17, Class 18, Class 18, Class 19, Class 20, Class 21, Class 22, Class 23, Class 24, Class 25, Class 26, Class 27, Class 28, Class 29, Class 30, Class 31, Class 32, Class 33, Class 34, Class 35, Class 36.
 
*six elements: solid, current, ethereal, elemental, igneous, and fluid.
 
*two densities: sparse and dense.
 
*three compositions: diffuse, insular, and concentrated.
 
*six classifiers: inanimated inhuman, animated human, diverse, generic, animated human, and animated inhuman.
 
*two formalities: informal and formal.
 
They can be divided into Prediluvian Nouns, with 1296 permutations  (<small>CLASS</small> x <small>ELEMENT</small> x <small>DENSITY</small> x <small>COMPOSITION</small>), Postdiluvian Nouns with 12 permutations, (<small>CLASSIFIER</small> x <small>FORMALITY</small>), and Edenic Nouns with 2 permutations (<small>∅</small>). In all circumstances, their number may double under an ubiquitious feature referred to as [[w:Construct state|state]]:
 
*two states: [[w:Absolute state|absolute]] and [[w:Construct state|construct]].
 
The grammatical state consists on the morphological formation triggered in exceptional syntactic constructions with the Triptote Formula (responsible for articles, pronouns, et cetera), wherein a transfix rearranges the root-pattern in order to fit it. The transfix is always a <small>DEFINITION</small> morpheme (e.g. the first vowel in the article ''iru'' "the"), and for this reason, highly abstract nouns such as those pertaining to the formula ''-/-/-/-'' and ''-///-'' (as well as non-finite verbs of formula ''-///''  and ''///-'') not only repudiate articles, but lack a proper construct form beyond ''-///-''. To exemplify the existence of articleless words, compare the genitive use against the gerund in ''adūna muri'' "biology of dying" and the noun in ''adūna ari maur'' "biology of death".

|-
|-
|}
Generally, a noun is given in the absolute state, but reformed to the construct state if case-marking is wished to be occulted. The word ''kûn'' "dog", for example, in the sentence ''kûniru'' "the dog" (<small>ABSOLUTE</small>) contains the article ''iru'' "the" attached, which emphasizes the nominative case; however, in ''kufin'' "the dog" (<small>CONSTRUCT</small>), there is no such marking, except partially by the inclusion of ''-i-'' (the first vowel of the article). This occurs because ''kûn'' (''kúfn'', ''kúun'', et cetera) is actually interpreted as the formula ''/-//'' (''k-fn''), programmed to become ''/-/V/'' (''k-fVn''). The process may be less straightforward in other instances:
: ''āvála'' "humanity" (-'-v-l-) ⇒ ''aūla'' "humanity" (-///-).
: ''(i)saíkat aru'' "a philosopher" (-s-k-t-) ⇒ ''iskat'' "a philosopher" (-//V/).
: ''babalú aru'' "an idea of confusion" (-b-b-l-) ⇒ ''babla'' "an idea of confusion" (/V//-).
=====Edenic Nouns=====
The most fundamental layers of meaning are encompassed by the Edenic Patterns. Through them, roots are easily morphed into abstract terms, such as the lemma ''ādáma'' "ancestry" out of the root ''-’-d-m-'' "ancestry". There is also a shorter form available with no semantic distinction, which ignores the two intermediary vowels and often vocalizes the medial consonant (except when there is a glottal stop elsewhere, which may disappear instead).

Postdiluvian Nouns usually reinforce basic derivations from the roots, being concerned with concepts such as measurable abstractions and bare concretnesses. For example, from a root such as ''-q-h-f-'' "animalism", its essence can be extracted as ''qâhf'' "life", with classifier distinctions then expanding further contrast, as ''-k-’-n-'' "passage of time" yielding ''kâ’n'' "year", ''kû’n'' "old person", and ''kî’n'' "clock".

=====Prediluvian Nouns=====
 
Prediluvian Nouns are more complex, associated with vast nominal classes. A root such as ''-m-f-r-'' "death" can yield ''ímufar'' "poison", ''maífar'' "deceased", ''mafaúra'' "lifespan (until death)", et cetera.

=====Non-finite Verbs=====
====Verbs====
 
Verbs are conjugated by voice, person, mood, number, and aspect, or by form:


Non-finite verbs are the least productive class of verbs, underperforming through their semantic range, capable for example of conjugating ''-m-f-r-'' "dying" into ''murí'' "dying" (gerund), ''murá'' "to die" (lemma), ''murú'' "to die" (infinitive).

====Adjuncts====
*three moods: [[w:Subjunctive mood|subjunctive]], [[w:Indicative mood|indicative]], and [[w:Jussive mood|jussive]].


Adjuncts are demarked by effect and amplitude:
*two numbers: [[w:Singular number|singular]] and [[w:Plural number|plural]].


*three effects: describer, ascriber, and inscriber.
*two aspects<sub>F</sub>: [[w:Perfective aspect|perfective]] and [[w:Imperfeftive aspect|imperfective]].


*two amplitudes: local and universal. The first group works within the word boundary; the second within the phrase.
*six aspects<sub>N</sub>: [[w:Gerund|complete gerund]], [[w:Gerund|incomplete gerund]], generic lemma, basic lemma, [[w:Infinitive|complete infinitive]], and [[w:Infinitive|incomplete infinitive]].


Adjectives (''/-/''), incorporations (''-//''), and prefixes (''/--'') precede nouns/verbs, whereas adverbs (''-/-''), expressions (''//-''), and postpositions (''--/'') are right-bound. Also, incorporations may equal to adverbs before consonants, as prefixes may equal to adjectives before vowels. Those two word classes distinguish themselves in Adamic by the fact that incorporations modify nouns while prefixes modify verbs. Vide ''ādūqáfl'' "proto-language" and ''’āmúqul'' "to foretell since the beginning".
They can be divided into Finite Verbs, with 216 permutations (<small>VOICE<sub>F</sub></small> x <small>PERSON</small> x <small>MOOD</small> x <small>NUMBER</small> x <small>ASPECT<sub>F</sub></small>), and Non-finite Verbs, with 12 permutations (<small>VOICE<sub>N</sub></small> x <small>ASPECT<sub>N</sub></small>).

===Concatenation===
 
The root is liable to be modified by extensions or affixes, which cover the border of a stem as either [[w:Prefix|prefixes]] or [[w:Suffix|suffixes]].
 
====Replication====
 
By directly extending the stem through [[w:Reduplication|repetition]], affixes determine its measurements and quantities.
 
=====Degree=====
 
The affix '''-(C)V(C)-''' marks the measurements of stems by extending the nearest consonantal onset/coda, with the vocalic unit between the root-pattern and the reduplicated consonant (or the sound ''-c-'' in case a vowel should be reduplicated) being variable. This type of reduplication is often used in comparisons (e.g. ''gugīgánu-ta'' "I am bigger than you") and evaluations (e.g. ''gīgūg kûnaru'' "a giant dog").

In incoporations (excellence or continuation):
====Adjuncts====


: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''i’t-'' "strong" ⇒ ''i’ti’t-'' "indeed strong".
Adjuncts are demarked by effect and amplitude:


: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" ⇒ ''īg-'' "great" ⇒ ''īgīgīg-'' "constantly great".
*three effects: describer, ascriber, and inscriber.


In expressions (excellence or continuation):
*two amplitudes: local and universal. The first group works within the word boundary; the second within the phrase.


: ''-k--t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''k’a'' "being strong enough"" ⇒ ''k’a-k’a'' "indeed being very strong".
Adjectives (''/-/''), incorporations (''-//''), and prefixes (''/--'') precede nouns/verbs, whereas adverbs (''-/-''), expressions (''//-''), and postpositions (''--/'') are right-bound. Also, incorporations may equal to adverbs before consonants, as prefixes may equal to adjectives before vowels. Those two word classes distinguish themselves in Adamic by the fact that incorporations modify nouns while prefixes modify verbs. Vide ''ādūqáfl'' "proto-language" and ''’āmúqul'' "to foretell since the beginning".

=====Adjectives=====


: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''kā-'' "strong" ⇒ ''kākā-'' "indeed strong".

: ''--d-m-'' "ancestry" ⇒ ''’ām'' "ancestral".


In postpositions (excellence or continuation):
=====Adverbs=====


: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''iāt'' "if" ⇒ ''iāt-iāt'' "indeed if".
Adverbs describe the nominal/verbal phrase.


: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" ⇒ ''īg'' "(incredibly) as/while" ⇒ ''īg-īg-īg'' "constantly (incredibly) as/while".
: ''--d-m-'' "ancestry" ⇒ ''ādū'' "originally".


====Addition====
=====Incorporations=====


By directly extending the stem through [[w:Grammatical particle|particles]], affixes determine its relation with new actors.  
Incorporations ascribe the noun.


=====Derivation=====
: ''-’-d-m-'' "ancestry" ⇒ ''ādm-'' "proto-" [incorporation].


When Postdiluvian particles are applied, the resultant word denotes a new actor ('''X''') through the relation with the stem's original ('''Y'''). Furthermore, left-bound affixes are active whereas right-ones passive, which helps stems to diverge in semantic content (e.g. ''haûl'' "fire" ⇒ ''mahaûl'' "firewood" / ''haûmma'' "ashes"). This process includes not only nouns, but verbs (e.g. ''úgul'' "to eat" ⇒ ''múgul'' "to be hungry" / ''úgumma'' "to be satisfied"), adjuncts (e.g. ''’ūl'' "human" ⇒ ''ma’ūl'' "natural" / ''’ūmma'' "artificial"), and even some clitics (e.g. ''su'' "he" ⇒ ''masu'' "who" [relative] / ''suma'' "who" [interrogative]).
=====Expressions=====

=====Postpositions=====
 
Postpositions inscribe the verbal phrase.
 
: ''-’-d-m-'' "ancestry" ⇒ ''ām'' "before (long ago)".
 
===Concatenation===
 
The root is liable to be modified by extensions or affixes, which cover the border of a stem as either [[w:Prefix|prefixes]] or [[w:Suffix|suffixes]].
 
====Replication====
 
By directly extending the stem through [[w:Reduplication|repetition]], affixes determine its measurements and quantities.
 
=====Degree=====
 
The affix '''-(C)V(C)-''' marks the measurements of stems by extending the nearest consonantal onset/coda, with the vocalic unit between the root-pattern and the reduplicated consonant (or the sound ''-c-'' in case a vowel should be reduplicated) being variable. This type of reduplication is often used in comparisons (e.g. ''iru gugīgá-nuta'' "I am the one bigger than you") and evaluations (e.g. ''gīgūg kûnaru'' "a giant dog").

===Triptote Formula===
In nouns (veracity or diffuse plural):


The Triptote Formula inflects through case, number, definition and/or gender:
: ''-q-h-f-'' "animalism" ⇒ ''qáhf'' "life" ⇒ ''qáhf-qáhf'' "genuine life".


*six cases: [[w:Nominative case|nominative]], [[w:Accusative case|accusative]], [[w:Dative case|dative]], [[w:Oblique case|oblique]], [[w:Ergative case|ergative]], and [[w:Genitive case|genitive]].
: ''-k-f-n-'' "dog" ⇒ ''kûn'' "dog" ⇒ ''kûn-kûn-kûn'' "dogs here and there".


*three numbers: [[w:Singular number|singular]], [[w:Dual number|dual]], and [[w:Plural number|plural]].
In verbs (repetition or habit):


*three referentialities: [[w:Article (grammar)#Definite article|definite]], [[w:Article (grammar)#Indefinite article|indefinite]], and [[w:Article (grammar)#Partitive article|nomic]].
: ''-g-f-l-'' "consumption" ⇒ ''āgâfl'' "they did eat" ⇒ ''āgâfl-āgâfl'' "they repeatedly did eat".


*three genders: [[w:Feminine gender|feminine]], [[w:Masculine gender|masculine]], and [[w:Neuter gender|neuter]].
: ''-m-f-r-'' "death" ⇒ ''āmâr'' "they died" ⇒ ''āmâr-āmâr-āmâr'' "they used to die".


Case, number, and gender are ubiquitous while definition is dropped in pronouns (also, the neuter gender conflates with the masculine gender). The result is 108 permutations known to reduce grammatical functions thanks to a trio of particles (''i'', ''u'', and ''a'') specialized in capturing basic relations from older paleolithic codes. Vide:
In adjectives (excellence or continuation):


: ''-'' (dative) [Pangaean] ⇒ ''_i'' (dative) [Adamic]
: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''k’āt'' "strong" ⇒ ''k’āt-k’āt'' "indeed strong".


: ∅  (nominative) [Pangaean] ⇒ ''_u'' (nominative) [Adamic]
: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" ⇒ ''gīg'' "big" ⇒ ''gīg-gīg-gīg'' "constantly big".


: ''-ʔ'' (accusative) [Pangaean] ⇒ ''_a'' (accusative) [Adamic]
In adverbs (excellence or continuation):


To serve their purpose, right-led case particles (''_V<sub>cas</sub>'') combine with correlation (''C<sub>cor</sub>'') and definition particles (''V<sub>def</sub>'') in the formula ''_V<sub>def</sub>C<sub>cor</sub>V<sub>cas</sub>'' to generate articles, while pronouns are formed by stacking the former with pronoun roots (''C<sub>pro</sub>'') as in ''_C<sub>pro</sub>V<sub>cas</sub>''. Furthermore, as articles are always treated as clitics whereas pronouns may act as stems, the empty space ''_'' is filled by a nominal unit when an article, and otherwise by the particle ''a'' when a pronoun). Vide:
: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''i’a'' "strongly" ⇒ ''i’a-i’a'' "indeed strongly".


: ''_iru'' (definite article) ⇒ ''saíkat iru'' "the philosopher" (nominative)
: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" ⇒ ''īgī'' "greatly" ⇒ ''īgī-īgī-īgī'' "constantly great".


: ''_nu'' (1<sup>st</sup>-person) ⇒ ''anu'' "I" (nominative)
In incoporations (excellence or continuation):


When opposite functions are wished, on the other hand, one has solely to invert the empty space:
: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''i’t-'' "strong" ⇒ ''i’ti’t-'' "indeed strong".


: ''iru_'' (definite article) ⇒ ''iru saíkat'' "it's the philosopher" (oblique)
: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" ⇒ ''īg-'' "great" ⇒ ''īgīgīg-'' "constantly great".


: ''nu_'' (1<sup>st</sup>-person) ⇒ ''nua'' "it's me" (oblique)
In expressions (excellence or continuation):


Regarding the demarcations of gender and number, the singular, dual, and plural in the masculine (''u'') and neuter (''a'') are prototypically represented by ''-u'', ''-au'', and ''-ū'', whereas in the feminine (''i'') by ''-ui'', ''-ai'', and ''-uī'', with the plural demarcation actually behaving as ''V̄'' (depending on other terms to define a vowel). In effect, the conflation of the masculine and neuter with the basic form is explained by the obsolete fusion of the former (''*-uu'') and the fact that the latter can be left unmarked (''-u∅'') to represent ''-ua''.  
: ''-k--t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''k’a'' "being strong enough"" ⇒ ''k’a-k’a'' "indeed being very strong".


Gender functions mostly behave as a dual scheme in Adamic. For every word, it is conceived a pair wherein there are "material" (''i'') and "immaterial" (''u'') members, in such way that a predictable gender system is formed within the language. "Earthly" concepts such as "earth", "water", and "sea" are always feminine, in contrast with "heavenly" terms akin to "sky", "wind", and "clouds", masculine. Other correspondences clearly extend to objects such as domestic items and abstract phenomena, respectively.
: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" '''' "when great" ''gī-gī-gī'' "constantly when great"  


====Pronouns====
In prefixes (excellence or continuation):


Pronouns can be inflected by primary and secondary cases (e.g ''ana'' "me", ''anuk'' "with me"), beyond the following affixes:
: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''kā-'' "strong" ''kākā-'' "indeed strong".


* '''(C)''': feminine construction with ''ca'' and/or ''’a'' that may aid the feminine marker ''i''. Vide: ''anuci'' "I (f.)", ''anu’a'' "I (f.)", ''anu’ai'' "I (f.)", ''anuca’'' "I (f.)", et cetera.
: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" ''gī-'' "great" ''gīgīgī-'' "constantly great".


* '''(N)''': plural construction with the Diluvian particle ''nā'' (e.g. ''anu'' "I" and ''anunā'' "we"), which may suffer a variety of deformations, such as being reduced to ''n'' (e.g. ''anūn'' "we") or fused with ''ca'' (e.g. ''anucān'' "we"). The feminine (C) may be included.
In postpositions (excellence or continuation):


Pronouns may also differ among themselves, as the distribution of their roots is formely distinguished as Eurasian and Laurentian paradigms, that would roughly address the two sets of pronoun patterns (m-T and n-m) historically associated with Northern Eurasia and Western America<ref name="Nichols, Peterson, 2013">Johanna Nichols, David A.

Zenodo. https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13950591 (Available online at http://wals.info/chapter/137, Accessed on 2025-01-20.)</ref>; however, they merely catalogue the most common used consonants for pronouns in the Diluvian Code, and therefore in Adamic:
: ''-k-’-t-'' "resistence" ⇒ ''iāt'' "if" ⇒ ''iāt-iāt'' "indeed if".


*Eurasian:
: ''-g-g-g-'' "great size" ⇒ ''īg'' "(incredibly) as/while" ⇒ ''īg-īg-īg'' "constantly (incredibly) as/while".


: ''naocar'' "the near person" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-n-'' (1<sup>st</sup> person) [Adamic]
====Addition====


: ''taocar'' "the person of reference" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-t-'' (2<sup>nd</sup> person) [Adamic]
By directly extending the stem through [[w:Grammatical particle|particles]], affixes determine its relation with new actors.


: ''yaocar'' "that person (3<sup>rd</sup>-person)" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-s-'' (3<sup>rd</sup> person) [Adamic]
=====Derivation=====


*Laurentian:
When Postdiluvian particles are applied, the resultant word denotes a new actor ('''X''') through the relation with the stem's original ('''Y'''). Furthermore, left-bound affixes are active whereas right-ones passive, which helps stems to diverge in semantic content (e.g. ''haûl'' "fire" ⇒ ''mahaûl'' "firewood" / ''haûmma'' "ashes"). This process includes not only nouns, but verbs (e.g. ''úgul'' "to eat" ⇒ ''múgul'' "to be hungry" / ''úgumma'' "to be satisfied"), adjuncts (e.g. ''’ūl'' "human" ⇒ ''ma’ūl'' "natural" / ''’ūmma'' "artificial"), and even some clitics (e.g. ''su'' "he" ⇒ ''masu'' "who" [relative] / ''suma'' "who" [interrogative]).
 
: ''kaocar'' "this person" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-k-'' (1<sup>st</sup> person) [Adamic]
 
: ''paocar'' "the present person" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-p-'' (2<sup>nd</sup> person) [Adamic]
: ''aocar'' "person" [Diluvian] ⇒ ''-∅-'' (3<sup>rd</sup> person) [Adamic]
 
=====Plain Pronouns=====
 
The plain form of pronouns is equivalent to the absolute state of nouns, inflected by case. This class may also behave as articles for a noun when independent (e.g. ''’ûl-asu'' "that man"), and their Eurasian and Laurentian paradigms, for once, are as follows:

=====Relation=====
Prediluvian particles are attached exclusively to clitics, bearing different functions depending on their position within them. As left-bound particles in strong clitics, they are responsible for correlation (e.g. ''aiku'' "this one"); as right-bound, for case (e.g. ''airuk'' "with the one"); and in weak clitics or [[w:Grammatical particle|particles]] for modality (e.g. ''auru kī'' "someone can").

=====Enclitic Pronouns=====
===Triptote Formula===
 
The Triptote Formula inflects through case, number, definition and/or gender:
 
*six cases: [[w:Nominative case|nominative]], [[w:Accusative case|accusative]], [[w:Dative case|dative]], [[w:Oblique case|oblique]], [[w:Ergative case|ergative]], and [[w:Genitive case|genitive]].
 
*three numbers: [[w:Singular number|singular]], [[w:Dual number|dual]], and [[w:Plural number|plural]].
 
*three referentialities: [[w:Article (grammar)#Definite article|definite]], [[w:Article (grammar)#Indefinite article|indefinite]], and [[w:Article (grammar)#Partitive article|nomic]].


The enclitic form of pronouns is equivalent to the construct state of nouns, not inflected by case. This class may also behave as relative connectors when clitic (e.g. ''ira saíkat nu abūlá'' "the philosopher (me) who reads"), and their Eurasian and Laurentian paradigms, for once, are as follows:
*three genders: [[w:Feminine gender|feminine]], [[w:Masculine gender|masculine]], and [[w:Neuter gender|neuter]].


{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"
Case, number, and gender are ubiquitous while definition is dropped in pronouns (also, the neuter gender conflates with the masculine gender). The result is 108 permutations known to reduce grammatical functions thanks to a trio of particles (''i'', ''u'', and ''a'') specialized in capturing basic relations from older paleolithic codes.

To serve their purpose, right-led case particles (''_V<sub>cas</sub>'') combine with correlation (''C<sub>cor</sub>'') and definition particles (''V<sub>def</sub>'') in the formula ''_V<sub>def</sub>C<sub>cor</sub>V<sub>cas</sub>'' to generate articles, while pronouns are formed by stacking the former with pronoun roots (''C<sub>pro</sub>'') as in ''_C<sub>pro</sub>V<sub>cas</sub>''. Furthermore, as articles are always treated as clitics whereas pronouns may act as stems, the empty space ''_'' is filled by a nominal unit when an article, and otherwise by the particle ''a'' when a pronoun).

Regarding the demarcations of gender and number, the singular, dual, and plural in the masculine (''u'') and neuter (''a'') are prototypically represented by ''-u'', ''-au'', and ''-ū'', whereas in the feminine (''i'') by ''-ui'', ''-ai'', and ''-uī'', with the plural demarcation actually behaving as ''V̄'' (depending on other terms to define a vowel). In effect, the conflation of the masculine and neuter with the basic form is explained by the obsolete fusion of the former (''*-uu'') and the fact that the latter can be left unmarked (''-u∅'') to represent ''-ua''.

Gender functions mostly behave as a dual scheme in Adamic. For every word, it is conceived a pair wherein there are "material" (''i'') and "immaterial" (''u'') members, in such way that a predictable gender system is formed within the language. "Earthly" concepts such as "earth", "water", and "sea" are always feminine, in contrast with "heavenly" terms akin to "sky", "wind", and "clouds", masculine. Other correspondences clearly extend to objects such as domestic items and abstract phenomena, respectively.

=====Heretoclitic Pronouns=====
Pronouns can be inflected by primary and secondary cases (e.g ''ana'' "me", ''anuk'' "with me"), beyond the following affixes:


Interrogative and relative pronouns are encompassed by this class, derived by the attachment of the particle ''-ma-'', denoting possibility. Notably, the interrogative group is not limited to the third person (e.g. ''numa'' "who (among us)?", ''tuma'' "who (among you)?", and ''suma'' "who (among them)?").
* '''(C)''': feminine construction with ''ca'' and/or ''’a'' that may aid the feminine marker ''i''. Vide: ''anuci'' "I (f.)", ''anu’a'' "I (f.)", ''anu’ai'' "I (f.)", ''anuca’'' "I (f.)", et cetera.


{| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"
* '''(N)''': plural construction with the Diluvian particle ''nā'' (e.g. ''anu'' "I" and ''anunā'' "we"), which may suffer a variety of deformations, such as being reduced to ''n'' (e.g. ''anūn'' "we") or fused with ''ca'' (e.g. ''anucān'' "we"). The feminine (C) may be included.

Pronouns may also differ among themselves, as the distribution of their roots is formely distinguished as Eurasian and Laurentian paradigms, that would roughly address the two sets of pronoun patterns (m-T and n-m) historically associated with Northern Eurasia and Western America<ref name="Nichols, Peterson, 2013">Johanna Nichols, David A.

Although highly inflective, a pronoun such as ''masu'' "who, that" bears no animate-inanimate distinction. For this purpose, there is ''’ūmma'' "who?", ''’āmma'' "what", and their varied forms:
=====Enclitic Pronouns=====
 
The enclitic form of pronouns is equivalent to the construct state of nouns, not inflected by case. This class may also behave as relative connectors when clitic (e.g. ''saíkat iru, nu abūlá'' "the philosopher who (among us) reads"), and their Eurasian and Laurentian paradigms, for once, are as follows:

It is common for heteroclitic nouns to be reduced (e.g. ''ma’ūli(C)'' reduced to ''’ūli'' "who? (f.)"); specially when reduplication is applied. Vide: ''ma’āl'' "what" and ''mama’āl'' "which" (also reduced to ''mam'').

It is also important to notice that heteroclitic pronouns can be used freely, in contrast to the relative use of enclitic pronouns (e.g. ''sama babál'' "what respectively is being read", ''bîblira sa babál'' "the book, which is being read").
=====Possessive Pronouns=====
Enclitic pronouns when flexed over articles acquire a possessive meaning (e.g. ''si'' "she" + ''iru'' "the" = ''asiru'' "hers"). It goes without saying that this process completely overcomes any inflection of definition (e.g. ''su'' "he" + ''iru'' "the" = ''asuru'' "his"), yet it is important to notice both the possessor and the possession inflect this class of pronouns (e.g. ''tat siru'' "her dad", ''mūm siruci'' "her mom").

=====Heretoclitic Pronouns=====
Interrogative and relative pronouns are encompassed by this class, derived by the attachment of the particle ''-ma-'', denoting possibility. Notably, the interrogative group is not limited to the third person (e.g. ''numa'' "who (among us)?", ''tuma'' "who (among you)?", and ''suma'' "who (among them)?").

====Articles====
Articles in Adamic are either [[w:Article (grammar)#Definite article|definite]], [[w:Article (grammar)#Indefinite article|indefinite]], or [[w:Article (grammar)#Partitive article|nomic]]. The first case denotes either a specific being one is able or unable to identify (translated in English as "the" or "a certain"); the second, an unespecific being that may be random or somewhat specific (translated as "any" or "some"); and the third applies to generic identities, such as the subject in ''’ûlaru amfár'' "people die".
=====Nominal Articles=====
Plain articles accompany nouns and pseudo-nouns in the absolute state. Instead of relying on an epenthetic vowel to determine their syntactic functions such as pronouns, they are known to be arranged either before or after a nominal phrase (e.g. ''iru mur liviatan'' "it's the dead whale").

Although highly inflective, a pronoun such as ''masu'' "who, that" bears no animate-inanimate distinction. For this purpose, there is ''’ūmma'' "who?", ''’āmma'' "what", and their varied forms:
 
Enclitic articles accompany nouns in the absolute state or when the equivalent plain article would appear again (e.g. ''bîbli iri saíkat'' "the philosopher's book", ''bîbli liviatan iruci'' "the book and the whale"). They may be either infixes or sufixes, depending on whether the noun is triradical or not, in which case an open space between consonants either draws the vowel or its inexistence pulls it away. Exceptions such as ''bîblV'' rather than ''bîbVl'' occur though due the presence of liquid consonants.

==Syntax [...]==
It is common for heteroclitic nouns to be reduced (e.g. ''ma’ūli(C)'' reduced to ''’ūli'' "who? (f.)"); specially when reduplication is applied. Vide: ''ma’āl'' "what" and ''mama’āl'' "which" (also reduced to ''mam'').


The sentence structure of Adamic is highly strict and diffusive. The position of nouns is primarily determined by the configuration promoted by the triptote formula and the use of the [[w:Construct state|construct state]]; verbs conform to the latter by not interrupting the chain of Subject-Object (except when regarding pronouns); whereas some adjuncts must precede their arguments (e.g. adjectives as in ''mur liviatan iru'' "the dead whale"), and others follow them (e.g. adverbs as in ''āgūlá ūfā'' "he ate deadly"). Overall, the first half of a sentence is the [[w:Topic and comment|topic]], and the second, the [[w:Focus (linguistics)|focus]].

The so called construct state plays an important role in adamic syntax, being responsible for distinguishing compositions among themselves in order to make sense of a select class of grammatical cases in the articles (wherein the construct can always be identified as the [[w:Subject (grammar)|subject]]). For example, the nominative, oblique, accusative, ergative, dative, and genitive, for once, are known to trigger it when two inflections of the triptote formula conflate, as in:
It is also important to notice that heteroclitic pronouns can be used freely, in contrast to the relative use of enclitic pronouns (e.g. ''sama babál'' "what respectively is being read", ''bîblira sa babál'' "the book, which is being read").


: ''bîbliri'' "to/towards the book" + ''iri saíkat'' "from/of the philosopher"
=====Possessive Pronouns=====


The logical exclusion of one ''iri'' for means of redudancy does not indicate the syntactic relationship alone, but is accompanied by the construct with two possibilities:
Enclitic pronouns when flexed over articles acquire a possessive meaning (e.g. ''si'' "she" + ''iru'' "the" = ''asiru'' "hers"). It goes without saying that this process completely overcomes any inflection of definition (e.g. ''su'' "he" + ''iru'' "the" = ''asuru'' "his"), yet it is important to notice both the possessor and the possession inflect this class of pronouns (e.g. ''tat siru'' "her dad", ''mūm siruci'' "her mom").

=====Attributive Formation=====
Articles in Adamic are either [[w:Article (grammar)#Definite article|definite]], [[w:Article (grammar)#Indefinite article|indefinite]], or [[w:Article (grammar)#Partitive article|nomic]]. The first case denotes either a specific being one is able or unable to identify (translated in English as "the" or "a certain"); the second, an unespecific being that may be random or somewhat specific (translated as "any" or "some"); and the third applies to generic identities, such as the subject in ''’ûlaru amfár'' "people die".


The effects of the cadence of syntactic arguments against nouns may lead from (1) to (4).
=====Nominal Articles=====


{{interlinear|lang=fi|number=(1)
Plain articles accompany nouns and pseudo-nouns in the absolute state. Instead of relying on an epenthetic vowel to determine their syntactic functions such as pronouns, they are known to be arranged either before or after a nominal phrase (e.g. ''iru mur liviatan'' "it's the dead whale").

{{interlinear|lang=fi|number=(3)
Enclitic articles accompany nouns in the absolute state or when the equivalent plain article would appear again (e.g. ''bîbli iri saíkat'' "the philosopher's book", ''bîbli liviatan iruci'' "the book and the whale"). They may be either infixes or sufixes, depending on whether the noun is triradical or not, in which case an open space between consonants either draws the vowel or its inexistence pulls it away. Exceptions such as ''bîblV'' rather than ''bîbVl'' occur though due the presence of liquid consonants.

==Syntax==


{{interlinear|lang=fi|number=(6)
The sentence structure of Adamic is highly strict and diffusive. The position of nouns is primarily determined by the configuration promoted by the triptote formula and the use of the [[w:Construct state|construct state]]; verbs conform to the latter by not interrupting the chain of Subject-Object (except when regarding pronouns); whereas some adjuncts must precede their arguments (e.g. adjectives as in ''mur liviatan iru'' "the dead whale"), and others follow them (e.g. adverbs as in ''āgūlá ūfā'' "he ate deadly"). Overall, the first half of a sentence is the [[w:Topic and comment|topic]], and the second, the [[w:Focus (linguistics)|focus]].

For example, the nominative, oblique, accusative, ergative, dative, and genitive, for once, are known to trigger it when two inflections of the triptote formula conflate, as in:

=====Collective Formation=====
====Pronouns====


The collective use of the article in a sentence triggers the construct state in its most distant members when there are two or more subjects/objects:
When constructs, pronouns lose their triptote inflection, becoming enclitics attached to the unit they are subjects of.

===Word Order===
=====Attributive Formation=====


====Constituent Order====
The effects of the cadence of syntactic arguments against pronouns may lead from (1) to (4).
 
The default constituent order in Adamic is [[w:Object-subject-verb word order|OSV]], except when the subject is a pronoun, wherein it takes the [[w:Object-verb-subject word order|OVS]] form. Alternatively, the [[w:Verb-object-subject word order|VOS]] and therefore the [[w:Verb-subject-objectword order|VSO]] order appear as liberties.

The position of nouns is more often than not determined by the position of their articles. When the latter form a syntactical relationship with the sentence (i.e. a construction), there will be certain spots where the noun can be located in order to accomplish grammatical sense.

=====Verbs=====
|מףרס
 
|mfrs
The position of verbs is less strict than nouns. They are preferably right-bound, and often appear at the end of a sentence.

====Modifier Order====
====Pseudo-nouns====


Modifers may be left out, but otherwise they are strategically positioned to align with their morphological function. Incorporated adjuncts for instance are well defined by Adamic morphology, either modifying the noun/verb or the nominal/verbal phrase; it is rather the insurgence of segmental modifiers (i.e. segments as much as non-obligatory) that involve a more complex structure, when segmental adjuncts substitute the arguments they modify, forcing the latter into the construct state, as the second example (1) below shows.
When constructs, non-finite verbs lose their triptote inflection, attracting verbal enclitics to themselves while behaving as nouns.
 
=====Incorporated Adjuncts=====
 
As adjuncts incorporated into the constituent aligment, those that modify the noun/verb are left-bound, and those that modify the nominal/verbal phrase are right-bound:

=====Segmental Adjuncts=====
=====Collective Formation=====


Contrary to adjuncts per se, segments that function as adjuncts (i.e. disposable) may be located either left or right in relation to the arguments they modify, but their function differs in each case. For example, it is important to notice the difference between the next two samples, which although both can be translated as "the philosopher reads the book in the library", only (1) implies the action of reading occurs there, whereas (2) implies the book was in the library aforementioned:
The collective use of the article in a sentence triggers the construct state in its most distant members when there are two or more subjects/objects:

===Subordinate Clauses===
=====Attributive Formation=====


In Adamic, [[w:Subordination (linguistics)|subordination]] is mostly marked by postpositions, clitic pronouns, or even the bare triptote formula. Contrary to what one might conclude, though, the construct state is not triggered in the same manner as the arrangement of nouns and their articles within the level of the clause; rather, it occurs during [[w:Ellipsis (linguistics)|ellipsis]].
The effects of the cadence of syntactic arguments against pseudo-nouns may lead from (1) to (4).
 
====Absolute Clauses====
 
Absolute clauses modify their subjects/objects through means beneath the clausal level (i.e. they consist of sentences that do not specify a noun).
 
=====Argument Clauses=====
 
Some subordinated clauses may prioritize the use of the triptote formula, addressing it as marker of the same level of the sentence rather than a particle attached to certain elements (e.g.''sā'''ru''' maíval askút'' "I think it is their mother" and '''''cu''' āūla sāri maíval askút'' "I think it is their mother's personhood"). As consequence, the clause is effectively treated as a pseudo-noun bearing the same syntactic functions as the latter.

=====Nouns=====


====Relative Clauses====
The position of nouns is more often than not determined by the position of their articles. When the latter form a syntactical relationship with the sentence (i.e. a construction), there will be certain spots where the noun can be located in order to accomplish grammatical sense.


Relative clauses modify their subjects/objects through means above the clausal level (i.e. they consist of sentences that specify a noun). Heretoclitic pronouns are responsible for this feature, be they proper to denote gender such ''sa'' or animacy and case such as ''masu''.
=====Verbs=====


In Adamic [...]
The position of verbs is less strict than nouns. They are preferably right-bound, and often appear at the end of a sentence, except when participles, wherein they tend to be left-bound and close to the noun they modify (e.g. ''kûnira ka’áp'' "the dog is taken" (non-participle) and  ''ká’ap kûniru'' "the taken dog" (participle)). However, the syntax of verbs still possesses a great effect upon nouns, pronouns, and pseudo-nouns. Excluding the extensive and often specific circumstances of objects (e.g. the difference between accusative ''asak āqfúlun'' "I spoke with him" and nominative ''asuk āqfúlun'' "I spoke next to him"), when subjects are treated, there is a limited array of responses on how the relationship among case and verbal inflection behave. The medio-passive voice for instance triggers the subject as nominative; the experimental, as oblique; the active, as ergative; the passive, as accusative; the causative, as dative (causer) and caseless (causee); and the obligative, as genitive (causee) and caseless (causer).


''sa'' may be used instead of ''masu'', but in fewer instances (solely the nominative, oblique, accusative, and ergative)
: ''asu gaflá'' "he eats" [medio-passive]


: ''sua aguál'' "he finds himself eating" [experimental]


[...]
: ''sā agulá'' "he eats it" [active]


: ''asa gafál'' "he is eaten" [passive]


: ''asi gualá-su'' "he makes him eat it" [causative]


He loves whom loves him
: ''sia agáfl-us'' "he is made by him to eat it" [obligative]
he loves
X who Y
asa amālá-su + asa amālá-su = asa amālá sa amālá


syntax of pronouns:
====Modifier Order====
asa amālá-su "he loves him"
sā amālá-su "he loves himself"


Modifers may be left out, but otherwise they are strategically positioned to align with their morphological function. Incorporated adjuncts for instance are well defined by Adamic morphology, either modifying the noun/verb or the nominal/verbal phrase; it is rather the insurgence of segmental modifiers (i.e. segments as much as non-obligatory) that involve a more complex structure, when segmental adjuncts substitute the arguments they modify, forcing the latter into the construct state, as the second example (1) below shows.


=====Incorporated Adjuncts=====


 
As adjuncts incorporated into the constituent aligment, those that modify the noun/verb are left-bound, and those that modify the nominal/verbal phrase are right-bound:

=====Segmental Adjuncts=====


Contrary to adjuncts per se, segments that function as adjuncts (i.e. disposable) may be located either left or right in relation to the arguments they modify, but their function differs in each case. For example, it is important to notice the difference between the next two samples, which although both can be translated as "the philosopher reads the book in the library", only (1) implies the action of reading occurs there, whereas (2) implies the book was in the library aforementioned:

''bîbliru'' "the book"
===Subordinate Clauses===
''babál sa bîblira'' "the book which is being read'
''bîblira, sa babál'' "the book, which is being read"


''
In Adamic, [[w:Subordination (linguistics)|subordination]] is mostly marked by postpositions, clitic pronouns, or even the bare triptote formula. Also characteristic of this morphosyntactic level is the [[w:Ellipsis (linguistics)|elliptical]] construct, which manifests when a noun, pronoun, or pseudo-noun functions as subject/object more than once in the sentence; be it optimal for reflexion, anaphora, or against ambiguity:


''they say that I want to work tommorrow, in order to earn money; me, who knew nothing about it''<br>
: ''sā amālá'' "he loves it" ⇒ ''sā'''s''' amālá'' "he loves himself"


''mur su saíkat iru'' "the philosopher who is dead"
: ''asa amālá-su'' "he loves him" ''amālá masa amālá-su'''s''''' "he loves whom loves him"
''saíkat su mur iru'' "the philosopher, who is dead"


''abbál sa saíkat'' "the philosopher who reads"
: ''asi'''s''' m’alá-sȳ'' "he makes her love him" / ''asi m’alá-sȳ'''s''''' "he makes her love herself"
''saíkat sa abbál'' "the philosopher, who reads"


''nāk āqfúl-as'' "I spoke with him"
====Absolute Clauses====
''abbál sa saíkat irak āqfúl'' "I spoke with the philosopher who reads"
''sak āqfúl'' "whom I spoke with" subject pronoun ommitted
 
''sa abbál'' "he reads"
''saíkat sa abbál''
 
''murásu, askút'' "I think he is dead"
 
''tu nuī'' "you and me"
''murátu ī muránu''  "you are dead and I am dead"
 
''saíkat bûlū'' "philosopher or fool"
''sitátu ū būlátu''
 
Have him to do it
 
''datasiú irut bîbliru'' "the book in this library" is comparable to ''datasiú sat bîbliru'' "the book that is in the library".


Absolute clauses modify their subjects/objects through means beneath the clausal level (i.e. they consist of sentences that do not specify a noun).


=====Argument Clauses=====


Some subordinated clauses may prioritize the use of the triptote formula, addressing it as marker of the same level of the sentence rather than a particle attached to certain elements (e.g.''sā'''ru''' maíval askút'' "I think it is their mother" and '''''cu''' āūla sāri maíval askút'' "I think it is their mother's personhood"). As consequence, the clause is effectively treated as a pseudo-noun bearing the same syntactic functions as the latter.

====Relative Clauses====


''ata áqila-k siktí'' "the philosopher can see you"
[[w:Relative clause|Relative clauses]] modify their subjects/objects through means above the clausal level (i.e. they consist of sentences that specify a noun). Clitics and heretoclitic pronouns are responsible for this feature, be they proper to denote gender such ''sa'' or case such as ''masu''; with the latter being a mere variant of the former when no noun is applied (e.g. ''murus su, saíkat iru'' "the philosopher who is dead" and ''muras masu'' "who is dead").


''ata áqila-kan'' "I can see you"
=====Non-Restrictive Clauses=====


''ísit iru ’ûl'' is an alternative form to ''ísitu ’ûvil''
[[w:Relative clause#Restrictive and non-restrictive|Non-restrictive]] relations force right-bound order, where the verb follows the object, and the (hetero)clitic pronoun is situated after the (pro)noun it relativizes (e.g. ''bîbliru, sa nā babál'' "the book, which is being read by me").

Canonic onset clusters: [...]
 
[...] The language may gain considerable fusional morphology in the [[Adamic Code#Canonic|Canonic register]].
 
Canonic coda clusters: [...]
 
The Adamic Code can be spoken in a poetic register, called Canonic, where the Coloration Table is almost abused in grammatical restructuration. In this register, for example, sound laws follow coloration rules, as well as cases and verbal conjugations, in such form that another language is created within the language after abandoning the system of patterns. Vide the translation of "I think the person is dead":
 
:  ''avâla murá-su, askút'' (Adamic) > ''ālbai muris, sia'' (Canonic)

ia-u > eu, ai-u > ēu, u-ia > ue, u-ai > uē
ua-i > oi, au-i > ōi, i-ua > io, i-au > iō
 
in case of incompatibility, the repeated vowel is lost (EX: ia-i > e, and not ei); also, when a long dipthong is reduced, a central vowel is added (EX: āi > ēa).

====Alternation====
 
'''Accrescence''' (...): type-1 consonants extend to ...
 
'''Excrescence''' (''{{Phonorule|H|Q|V_R}}''): type-2 consonants extend to ''i'', ''u'', ''nd'', ''mb'', ''lb'', and ''rd'' respectively when intervovalic as onset to A-vowels.
 
'''Decrescence''' (''{{Phonorule|Z|∅|[#]_[#]/[G]_[G]}}''): type-3 consonants disappear when marginal, except when in contact with their respective dominant vowel.
 
====Elision====
 
Apocape (1): in a word with three syllables or more, the initial unstressed syllable is lost if it lacks an onset or a long vowel.
 
Syncope (2): in a word with three syllables or more, the middle unstressed syllable is lost if it is not closed by a coda or possesses a long vowel.
 
Aphaeresis (3): in a word with three syllables or more, the last unstressed syllable is lost if it lacks a coda or a long vowel.
 
====Epenthesis====
 
Prothesis: in a word with two or just one syllable, if there is an initial consonant cluster, a vowel (depending on the nature of the consonant) is added.
EX: ...
 
Anaptyxis: in a word with two or just one syllable, if there is a middle consonant cluster, the vowel /a/ is added.
EX: 'atlya > adalyal
 
Paragoge: in a word with two or just one syllable, if there is a final consonant cluster, a vowel (depending on the nature of the consonant).
EX: palk > palsil
 
====Harmony====

Canonic extends the concepts of "short" and "long" in Adamic grammar to the syllable as a whole, identifying the following segments:
 
*(C)<sup>2</sup>V(C̥) ([[w:Syllable weight|light]])
 
*(C)<sup>2</sup>VV(C̥) ~ (C)<sup>2</sup>V̄(C̥) ~ (C)<sup>2</sup>VC̬(C̥) ([[w:Syllable weight|heavy]])
 
*(C)<sup>2</sup>V̄V(C̥) ~ (C)<sup>2</sup>VVC̬(C̥) ~ (C)<sup>2</sup>V̄C̬(C̥) ([[w:Syllable weight|superheavy]])
 
Any other arrangement, such as ''(C)(C)V̄VC̬'', is forbidden. [...] Non-sonorant consonants if [...] C̬ = one sonorant or two non-sonorant consonants, C̥ = one non-sonorant consonant
 
light (μ<sub>1</sub>)
heavy (μ<sub>2</sub>)
superheavy (μ<sub>3</sub>)
 
A line of 36 morae ranges from 12 superheavy syllables up to 36 light syllables [...]

Non-finite verbs are (despite the name) more treated as defective nouns. They lack article yet behave as if were regulated by them
 
''murú appúral'' "I do not pretend to die"
''ígul mārasu'' "eating is good
 
''liviatan'' "whale"
''maubidik'' "sperm whale"
''bailzaibub'' "fly"
''drakula'' "bat"
''ganaisa'' "elephant"
 
''aran bailzaibub gulí amārâ-la, qaut babaiaga'' "flies don't like getting eaten, said the witch"
 
 
3 genders, but the masculine can be treated as the neuter
 
mostly synthetic
 
 
 
====Canonic Inflection/Conjugation====
 
In the Canonic register of Adamic, affixes are modified according to the Coloration Table and the Triptote Table in order to assign fusional significance to its phonemes. [...] There are 150 possibilities out of 36 permutations.

The canonic conjugation, for lacking the subjunctive and junctive functions or a finite verb, and the presence of non-finite forms, is relegated as a class of enunciative constructions often associated with literary practices. That is: canonic verbs appear in narration solely, or when an event is being described without biases. Vide the translation of "'I think that he is dead,' he said":

The Canonic Declension distinguishes itself from the Canonic Conjugation merely by inverting the inclusion of ''-a-''. Compare the pair ''zīs'' "to the giant" / ''azīs'' "the giant's" with ''kāuf'' "I kill" / ''iāpa'' "I am killed".
