Shared Alliantic, SA for short, is a constructed language created by MyNames_55 as a hobby, designed with simplicity and precision in mind. Its development began in October 2023 and is currently ~90% complete.
SA draws some inspiration from various languages, including Finnish, Japanese, and Turkish, as well as language families like Slavic, Germanic, and Romance. A significant emphasis is placed on affixes, which define aspects like time, gender, case, part of speech and opinion.
Etymology
The name Shared Alliantic is a translation from Կ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиı [tɬalʲ'janʲi], which can also mean Common Alliantic language. This name reflects the grammar and lexicon being shared with different languages.
- The prefix Կ indicates that the language combines features from various languages.
- The base 𐓟ʌ‘ჲи means alliance and is derived from some Slavic languages.
- The suffix ı denotes an adjective, but the entire word is treated as a noun because it is short for Կ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиıмove /tɬalʲjanʲimɔvɛ/, where мove stands for language.
Phonology
Shared Alliantic features 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/). Phonological features include diphthongs (mostly ◌̅), vowel hiatus, contrasting vowel length (with :◌), and consonant clusters. SA does not feature tones or vowel harmony. There are no strict stressing rules for individual words, but usually the word root is stressed.

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. Most of them were chosen because of simplicity.

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 three sections, arranged in a specific order for convenience.
Some glyphs have two possible pronunciations, which can be used interchangeably.
The only exception to this rule are the letters Jalar, Jolor, Julur, Jeler, and Jilir. If there is an apostrophe before these letters, they are pronounced the first way. Without an apostrophe, they are pronounced the second way, softening the preceding consonant.

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 participles, 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.
All sentences in SA have the SVO word order, regardless of the sentence.
Shared Alliantic is an agglutinating, split-ergative language that follows a subject-verb-object (SVO) word order with head-final phrases. declension, conjugation and modality, but no participles, supines or gerunds.
Modifiers can be placed before other modifiers to alter their meaning. Multiple modifiers can be enclosed in brackets for easier reading.
Gender
The genders system of SA is similar to that of English, but is more definitive.
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 |
In Shared Alliantic, male and female genders are applied to animate beings with a definitive gender. The neuter gender is used for inanimate objects or beings without a specified gender. The ambiguous gender is applied when the gender is unclear, either intentionally or otherwise.
Pronouns
Shared Alliantic has eight pronouns, including singular and plural formal forms. The formal pronouns can be used for any other persons. The pronoun system is similar to English, and all pronouns are always capitalized.
Person | Subject
/ Object |
Independent
Possessive | |
---|---|---|---|
S. | 1st | 𐑙(ი), Мი | 𐑙ı, Мიı |
2nd | Pი, Dი, Tი, Շი | Pი𐑨 Dი𐑨 Tი𐑨 Շი𐑨 | |
3rd | Ωи | Ωиı | |
Formal | Ʋი, Vი, Pი | Ʋი𐑨, Vი𐑨, Pი𐑨 | |
P. | 1st | Ωcი | Ωсი𐑨 |
2nd | Ωρი | Ωρი𐑨 | |
3rd | Ωиი | Ωиი𐑨 | |
Formal | Ʋიc, Vიc, Pიc | Ʋიcı, Vიcı, Pიcı |
In all pronouns, the ი changes according to gender, except for all instances of ı.
There are multiple versions of the second person singular and formal singular pronouns:
- Pი is polite
- Dი is for acquaintances
- Tი is for friends
- Py is rude
- Ʋი is polite formal
- Vი is regular formal
- Pი is friendly formal
Both versions of the first person singular pronouns are interchangeable.
The subject pronoun can be conjugated with genitive and dative cases to form dependent possessive and reflexive forms.
Nouns
Most nouns in Shared Alliantic have a suffix immediately following the word root that indicates gender: -ი, -o, -𐓟, or -e. All nouns in SA are capitalized, whether they are proper or common nouns. Plural forms of nouns always have a -c suffix after the gender suffix.
Proper nouns are transliterated into SA from their native language and are often marked with 『◌』. These transliterations then function as root words or whole nouns and can be conjugated within the 『◌』.
All common nouns have the -ი, -o, -𐓟, or -e suffixes, while proper nouns sometimes may not have a gender suffix.
![]() | The below parts are still under rework. Drastic changes may apply. |
Affixes
Affixes in Shared Alliantic serve various purposes, including marking tense, person, part of speech, case, opinion, and more. They can also modify other affixes.
Affixes are created by taking the letter from the first column and placing it before or after the word root to modify it. An additional ი, y, or q may be added between the affix and the word root to simplify pronunciation. The end word doesn't count as a separate word.

Cases
Shared Alliantic 0.9 has seven distinct cases, with genitive and possessive being interchangeable. There can be as many cases in a sentence as there are nouns. Cases can be applied to specific nouns to emphasize them, with the chosen case also highlighting particular ideas.
There is no strict order for using cases, but the nominative case is used when no other case is applied. Case suffixes are typically derived from the last one or two letters of the corresponding question word, except for the nominative case, which has no suffix.
Case suffixes are added after all other suffixes.
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. |
Verbs
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 last, and prefixes always second, after ⳡı-
.

---|---|---|---|
Past | Present | Future | |
Simple | Гe- ... | ... | Ve- ... |
Continuous | Гe- ... -(ი)ʋ | Ɣ- ... -(ი)ʋ | Ve- ... -(ი)ʋ |
Perfect | Ɣ qe- ... | Ɣ ... | Ɣ ve- ... |
...
stands for the verb. Ɣ

and have
.
Here are example sentences in different tenses using ucy
or "I use":

Inferential | Oиი𐑪 ʊიqoтㆍ | He is said to have gone. |
Verb conjugation according to grammatical moods in SA is done by adding affixes to verbs. Here an example verb ʌıρიи
(to read) is used to help demonstrate mood verb conjugation.
Mood | Conjugation | Example | |
---|---|---|---|
Shared Alliantic | English | ||
Indicative | … | Ɣʌıρoʋㆍ | He is reading. |
Subjunctive | λ(ი)- ... | ㄱ𐒳იʌıρıկიρ Иı𐑪y𐑳ıẟㆍ | If only you read the book... |
Conditional | ⳡı- ... -(ი)ρ | Ⳡıʌıρy Eиı𐑪 ⳡıqe𐑪ıẟıρ Mıмeиㆍ | I would read it if you gave it to me. |

Pıиıʌıρı Иı𐑪y𐑳ıẟㆍ
Иıʌıρი Иı𐑪y𐑳ıẟㆍ |
Read the book, please. (2nd p.s.)
Read the book, please. |
Jussive | ρ(ი) … | Pıиıʌıρо Иı𐑪y𐑳ıẟㆍ | Read the book, please. (3rd p.s.) |
Potential | ч(ი)- ... | Чიveʌıρy Иı𐑪y𐑳ıẟㆍ | I may read the book (in the future). |
Hypothetical | ... -(ი)𐑰 | ㄱГeʌıρი𐑱ი𐑰 иᴕтˡჲ Иı𐑪y𐑳ıẟㆍ | But you could've read the wrong book... |
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 | English | Gloss | |
Active | Gebakub Brede. | I baked bread. |
|
Passive | Brede ge bakub. | Bread was baked by me. |
|
|
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, therefore there is barely any differentiation between the two.
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.
Orthography
wip
(◌
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 digits 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 –
in-between two digit quads.
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/dd/SA_numerals.png/220px-SA_numerals.png)
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a4/SA_numeral_example.png/220px-SA_numeral_example.png)
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 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.
