Shared Alliantic (translated from Կ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиı
[tɬalʲ'janʲi]), SA for short, is a constructed language created by MyNames_55 as a hobby, and designed with simplicity and precision in mind. It began development in October 2023 and is currently ~90% complete.
Shared Alliantic draws inspiration from various languages, including Finnish, Japanese, and Turkish, as well as language families like Slavic, Germanic, and Romance. It also incorporates unique features. There is a great emphasis on affixes, which define aspects like time, gender, case, part of speech and more.
Etymology
Its name is a translation from Կ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиı
[tɬalʲ'janʲi], which can also be translated as Common Alliantic language
. Such a name can be explained by the grammar and lexicon being shared with different languages.
The prefix Կ
signifies that the language is a collection of features from different languages. The base 𐓟ʌ‘ჲи
means alliance
and comes from some Slavic languages. The suffix ı
marks an adjective, though the whole word is treated as a noun because it's short for Կ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиıмove
/tɬal'jan'imɔvɛ/, where мove
stands for language
.
Phonology
Shared Alliantic has 20 consonants (/m, n, p, b, t, d, k, g, s, z, ʂ, ʐ, f, v, θ, h, ɦ, j, r, ɭ/), 5 affricates (/ts, dz, ɖʐ, tɕ, tɬ/) and 6 vowels (/i, u, ɪ, ɛ, ɔ, a/), as shown below. Phonological features like diphthongs (mostly ◌̅
), vowel hiatus, contrasting vowel length (with :◌
), consonant clusters are present in SA. Tones and vowel harmony are not present. There are also no strict stressing rules for separate words, but usually the word root is stressed.

Phonotactics
Some letters can be replaced with other letters where it can be done without changing pronunciation. Doing so does not count as an error, and the word doesn't change in meaning. It can be done to simplify pronunciation. The list below gives an idea on how some phonemes change. It's not a full list.

Writing system
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9c/Shared_Alliantic_Poster_1.png/220px-Shared_Alliantic_Poster_1.png)
Shared Alliantic has a left-to-right alphabetic writing system with separate vowels and consonants. It contains 12 vowels, 25 consonants and 18 punctuation marks. All the characters are Unicode-compatible, but most fonts may not be suitable for displaying them.
The characters come from different scripts like Greek, Cyrrilic, Latin, Armenian, Shavian, Runic, Kanji, Malayam, Deseret and IPA, and most of them require only one stroke.

Alphabet
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a3/SA_9_alphabet.png/180px-SA_9_alphabet.png)
The Shared Alliantic alphabet consists of 3 sections. This specific order was chosen for convenience.
Some glyphs have two ways of pronunciation: this means both ways can be used interchangeably.
The only exception to this rule are Jalar, Jolor, Julur, Jeler and Jilir: if there is an apostrophe before these letters, they are read the first way. If no apostrophe is written before them, they're read the second way, softening the consonant before it.

Grammar
Shared Alliantic is an agglutinating, split-ergative language that uses the subject-verb-object word order with head-final phrases. It has declension, conjugation and modality, but no participle, supines or gerunds.
Modifiers can be placed before other modifiers to modify them. If the modifiers are all supposed to directly modify the noun/verb, they may be written in brackets.
SA has declarative, imperative, and interrogative sentences. Interrogative sentences can have either the SVO or VOS word order. Imperative sentences can have either the SVO or VOS word order.
Gender
There are 4 genders present. The extra gender, as opposed to the most common 3 gender system, can replace all the other 3 genders.
Question | Pronoun | Gloss | Example | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
SA | English | SA | English | ||
ᒪ 𐓒იㆍ | Ωи | They | Ambiguous | М𐓟нი | Person |
ᒪ 𐓒oㆍ | Oи | He | Masculine | Λеρo | Male teacher |
ᒪ 𐓒𐓟ㆍ | 𐒷и | She | Feminime | 𐒷ρ𐑰𐓟 | Female doctor |
ᒪ 𐓒eㆍ | Ҽи | It | Neuter | Tρe | Tree |
Male and female genders are applied to animate beings with definitive gender. Neuter is applied to inanimate things or beings with no gender. Ambiguous is applied when the gender is ambiguous, purposefully or not.
Pronoun
Shared Alliantic has 8 persons, including singular and plural formal persons. The formal persons can be used for the other persons. There is an English-like pronoun system. All of them are always capitalized.
PS use SA
Person | Subject
/ Object |
Independent
Possessive | |
---|---|---|---|
S. | 1st | 𐑙(ი), Мი | 𐑙ı, Мიı |
2nd | Ry, Dy, Ty, Py | Ryj, Dyj, Tyj, Pyj | |
3rd | Ωи | Ωиı | |
Formal | Thy, Vy, Ry | Thyj, Vyj, Ryj | |
P. | 1st | Ωcი | Ωсი𐑨 |
2nd | Ωρი | Ωρი𐑨 | |
3rd | Ωиი | Ωиი𐑨 | |
Formal | Thys, Vys, Rys | Thysi, Vysi, Rysi |
In all of them, the ი
changes according to gender. This excludes all ı
.
There are multiple versions of 2nd p.s. and formal singular. It is because Pი
is polite, Dი
is for acquittances, Tი
is for friends, Py
is rude. Ʋი
is polite formal, Vი
is regular formal, Pი
is friendly formal. Both versions of 1st p.s. are interchangeable.
The subject pronoun can then be conjugated with genitive and dative cases to form dependent possessive and reflexive forms.
Noun
Most nouns in SA have either -ი
-o
-𐓟
or -e
suffix right after the word root, which indicates gender. All nouns in SA are capitalised, no matter if the noun is proper or common. Plural forms of nouns always have an -c
suffix after the gender suffix.
Proper nouns are transliterated into SA from their native language, often marked with 『◌』
. These translations then behave like root words or whole nouns, able to be conjugated inside the 『◌』
.
All common nouns have the -ი
-o
-𐓟
or -e
suffixes, and proper nouns can sometimes have no gender suffix.
Affixes
Affixes are very common in Shared Alliantic, and they have a lot of uses. They are used to mark tenses, person, part of speech, case, opinion and more.
Note that only -ი
and -「ი」т
change Ylyr according to gender. They all can be used as separate words, while still retaining their meanings. PS update alphabet verbs to match

Case
There are 7 separate cases in Shared Alliantic 0.9 (genitive and possessive are interchangeable). There can be as many cases in a sentence as there are subjects/objects. Cases can be used on specific nouns in order to put emphasis on them, and the chosen case also emphasise on specific ideas.
There is no strict order of cases, but nominative is used when no other case is used. The suffix of a case is taken either from the last one or two letters of the question word, except nominative, which has no suffix.
Case suffixes are added last.
Case | Question | Gloss | Example | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Shared Alliantic | English | |||
Nominative | ᒪ 𐓒ıㆍ | X (Who/What) | 𐓒𐓟тიㆍ | A cat. |

Ablative | ᒪ𐓒ıկㆍ | From X | Sevys Ini Dიկㆍ | We are saving them from you. |
Verb
Most verbs in SA have the -იи
suffix after the word root, which then conjugates according to person.
Person | Conjugation | |
---|---|---|
S. | 1st | -「𐑨」y |
2nd | -「𐑨」იρ | |
3rd | -「𐑨」იт | |
Formal | -「𐑨」იρი | |
P. | 1st | -「𐑨」yc |
2nd | -「𐑨」იρc | |
3rd | -「𐑨」ი𐑰 | |
Formal | -「𐑨」იρიc |
In all of them, the ი
changes according to gender.
Formal persons can also have either a separate ending or the ending of one of the three persons, depending on the context. Its own conjugation is usually used when the pronoun is omitted, and it uses the other endings when the pronoun is kept, albeit it's not necessary.
Tense
There are 9 grammatical tenses in Shared Alliantic. Tense suffixes are always placed after other suffixes, and prefixes before other prefixes and after fi......

Inferential | ʊ「ი」- ... | Иᴕʊიʌıρიρ 𐑑y𐑳есıẟㆍ | They are said to not read books. |
...
stands for the verb.
Voice
Shared Alliantic has 3 voices: active, passive and middle voice.
Voice | Example | ||
---|---|---|---|
SA WIP | English | Gloss | |
Active | Gebakub Brede. | I baked bread. | Verb contains the subject, I,
and the case helps put the stress on it. |
Passive | Brede ge bakub. | Bread was baked by me. | Verb contains the object, I,
and the case helps put the stress on it. |
Middle | Brede gebakijtliy. | Bread baked. | Verb contains both the subject and the object,
bread, and the case helps out the stress on it. |
These examples would also work without the cases demonstrated, but these cases help with demonstrating the voices and put the stress where needed. Word order in these voices, however, stays as shown because of the SVO sentence structure.
Modifiers
Adjectives are formed by adding the adjective suffix to the root. On the example of Ⳡρyтe
(fruit) with the root ⳡρyт
, the resulting adjective ⳡρyтı
will then mean fruity
or fruit-like
. Comparative and superlative adjectives are constructed similarly. Prefixes иი-
and мი-
construct comparative and superlative of the adjective respectively.
Adverbs are formed in the same way as adjectives, and are treated similarly. For example, М𐓟иo
(man) with the root м𐓟и
gives the adjective м𐓟иˡҁ
which means man-like
, as in like a man
. Yet, м𐓟иˡҁ
is also an adverb meaning manly
. Adverb comparison works nearly identically to adjectives. For example, in М𐓟иი
(person), the adverb м𐓟иı
(humanely) would have the comparisons иıм𐓟иı
and мıм𐓟иı
, which stand for more humane(ly)
and most humane(ly)
respectively. Comparisons can also be used to represent the relation/opinion of the speaker to something.
Minor rules
- Parts of speech other than nouns are not capitalised unless they start the sentence.
- Nouns and verbs can be connected with other parts lf speech but never interjections or nouns with verbs.
- The subject pronoun may be omitted with the verb conjugated.
- Question mark, exclamation mark and ellipsis are only pronounced in the first word of the sentence.
- There are no strict stressing rules. However, if a syllable is has
:
, it is then stressed. Otherwise, word root will most likely be stressed.
Numerals
Shared Alliantic has a numeral system different from Arabic or Roman. It is segmental, meaning the numerals are connected together to represent bigger numbers. Each digit quad is written as a single numeral, separated with the мı-
suffix at the beginning of the second digit quad onward, and –

The line in the middle of all numbers acts as a base where the digits are attached to.
When digits are written at the bottom of the line, they are flipped, and the digits on the right side are mirrored.
Numbers can be treated as word roots. The -ı
suffix shows and amount or an ordinal number. The -e
suffix make a noun, as in The two / duo
or A two
.

Numbers 1-9999 are formed similarly to the Cistercian numeral system, but are written and read left to right from smallest to biggest digit, similar to how dozens are pronounced in German.
The zero digit with its prefix may be ignored when writing or pronouncing. The |
numeral is also sometimes used as an equivalent for 000
inside numerals, but it's always zero as a standalone number.
