'''{{PAGENAME}}''' (''Tsjoenz-blotp''; sometimes affectionately called ''tsje-blotp'' 'the ''tsje'' language', referring to the "unusual" sound [!] represented by ''tsj'') is a modern descendant of [[Myuftseezh]] and a lingua franca of Xjeof. It's inspired aesthetically by Swedish and Sino-Korean.

==Morphology==
Chick Corean grammar is mostly analytic and SVO.
===Nouns===
Chick Corean nouns do not inflect. Instead, they take articles that depend on the gender/class of the noun.
====Articles====
Articles inflect in singular and plural forms. Many articles pluralize by adding ''-s'', but some have irregular plurals.
