Unnamed mythological language

There are few details of this language. Since it is headed "Mythological Language" I perhaps intended to use it in connection with some fiction or imaginary people, but there is no evidence of that. The idea is perhaps inspired by Tolkien's mythopoeia, but the phonology and grammar are not similar to his languages. The most distinctive feature is it is ultra-analytic. Sadly no words at all are named.

The particles are essential and very common. They denote conjugation and declension, etc. The semantic parts of verbs and nouns are original; they have no other inflexion.

Notes:

• After the initial sections on sounds/letters and parts of speech there is just a long list of names of grammatical features followed by colons, implying the spaces to their right are to be filled with content - which unfortunately isn't there. Basically these pages create the outline of a completely analytic language but with no words identified.

• Some terms would be better renamed: proximative = proximal demonstrative, remotive = distal demonstrative, objective = inanimate, volitive = optative mood (wishing), expressive = exclamative (mood for expressions like "How right you are" or "What fun this is"). Destination/origin probably refer to the distinction between whither/whence, wohin/woher.

• Some terms are mysterious: developers (intensifiers?), potential tense (subjunctive?), adjectival, individual

• Under "Determinative particles" are two lists to be combined to create correlatives. The first list, definite to adverbial, covers the difference between e.g. "the", "this", "that", "which", "every", "no", "some", "any". The second list, personal to partitive, covers the difference between e.g. "who", "what", "which", "where", "when", "how", "how much". Since this language is ultra-analytic I seem to be building correlatives in two words.

• No word order is specified.
