Appendix:World/Radic languages: Difference between revisions

The southern Radic languages, on the other hand, exhibit a collapse of the original inflectional paradigms: both Ardian and Lusetian exhibit a binary case system, with Ardian's second case, the constructive, being far more restricted than the Lusetian oblique. The personal conjugations in both languages also exhibit a lot of syncretism, with the tense, mood and aspect system reduced from the original Radic distinctions. Both languages, however, have innovated new tenses, such as the Lusetian future and the Ardian imperfect. Southern Radic phonology is characterised by a lengthless resolution of the short-long vowel distinction in Radic, and in some cases new suprasegmental features, such as re-invented length and pitch accent in Lusetian.
