:[[Classical Netagin/Lexicon]]
'''Netagin''' (''ärək Nätagin'' ) is one of the major languages of [[Verse:Tricin]], native to the island nation of Ponetegu. It is a triconsonantal language loosely inspired by Hebrew and PIE.

'''Classical Netagin''' (Classical Netagin: ''băric năþâgin'' [pəˈrits nəðɒˈgin], [[Eevo]]: traditionally ''Nyðogín Afẃr'' 'Noble Netagin', [[Clofabosin]]: ''netagosin''), also called '''Old Netagin''' ([[Eevo]]: ''Nyðogín Dair''), is the stage of [[Netagin]] descended from [[Ancient Netagin]].
This page describes Classical Netagin. See also [[Modern Netagin]].
 
Noble Netagin is a classical language in Talma; it was the language of the Netagin Republic in Ancient Talma and lent some loans to other Talman languages such as [[Eevo]] and [[Bênôcian]]. Noble Netagin used to be a part of elite education and is still commonly taught in Talma.
 
It's inspired by the idea of "Hebrew through a looking-glass".

The Classical Netagin noun system is typical of "old" Talman languages: nouns, which have gender, inflect for number and state; verbs take both subject and object affixes and display changes according to their syntactic environment.

==Syntax==
==Syntax==
Classical Netagin is syntactically ergative. Word order is subject-verb in intransitive clauses and object-verb-subject in transitive clauses.
Classical Netagin uses Austronesian alignment.
===Case markers===
The two case markers are:
*''ʔes'' = indirect case
*''yi'' = direct case
===Preverbs===
===Preverbs===
When preverbs such as negation or subordinate conjunctions are used, the verb takes the "opposite" aspect of unpreceded verbs:  
When preverbs such as negation or subordinate conjunctions are used, the verb takes the "opposite" aspect of unpreceded verbs:  


*''ȝâxx'' 'I come (imperfective)', ''sâ xaȝân'' 'I do not come (imperfective)', ''nit xaȝân'' 'if I come (imperfective)'
*''låxx'' 'I come (imperfective)', ''så xalån'' 'I do not come (imperfective)', ''niþ xalån'' 'if I come (imperfective)'
*''xaȝân'' 'I came (perfective)', ''sâ ȝâxx'' 'I did not come (perfective)', ''nit ȝâxx'' 'if I came (perfective)'
*''xalån'' 'I came (perfective)', ''så låxx'' 'I did not come (perfective)', ''niþ låxx'' 'if I came (perfective)'
 
===Ergativity===
Ergative noun phrases use an ergative particle ''yi''.
 
*''ʔEs-þay hichem.'' = Father returned.
 
*''ʔEs-mâȝ hiskăȝö yis-þay.'' = Father saw Mother.
 
*''ʔEs-þay hiskaȝ yis-mâȝ.'' = Mother saw Father.
 
*''ʔEs-þay hichem dă ʔes-mâȝ hiskăȝö yis-þay.'' = Father returned and saw Mother.
 
*''ʔEs-þay hichem dă sökeȝ xaþ-þay.'' = Father returned and saw Mother. (using the antipassive)
 
*''ʔEs-þay hichem dă hiskaȝ yis-mâȝ.'' = Father returned and Mother saw Father.
