A Grammar of Kich

Introduction

Scope and Purpose

This grammar provides a systematic description of the Kich language (the 338th one produced by the Language Creator), outlining its sound system, word formation and syntactic structure, with the aim of presenting a coherent account of the language as an integrated whole. Attention has been paid to both regular patterns and minor irregularities, as these together define the internal balance of the language.

The grammar is accompanied by a bilingual dictionary and a collection of illustrative texts, offering material for further study and comparison. The examples have been selected to demonstrate typical constructions and to give a sense of the language in extended use. The description is intended as a reference work for linguists and language enthusiasts alike, and as a foundation for any future research, teaching or creative adaptation of Kich.

In the following, we shall look at the various components in more details.

There is one type of clitic in the nominal phrase, namely a proclitic (placed initially), expressing possessor. a clitic expressing possessor, comprising ṇa /nˤa/ ‘1incl.sing’, ḍe /dˤe/ ‘1excl.sing’, ma /ma/ ‘2.sing’, la /la/ ‘3.sing.masc’, ni /ni/ ‘3.sing.fem’, be /be/ ‘1incl.plur’, pe /pe/ ‘1excl.plur’, ṣi /sˤi/ ‘2.plur’, we /ʋe/ ‘3.plur.masc’ and ṣa /sˤa/ ‘3.plur.fem’.

The morphology of the elements of the nominal phrase, i.e., nouns, numerals and pronouns, is described below, as is the way that possession is expressed in Kich.

The Noun

The noun in Kich consists of the root followed by an obligatory suffix expressing case, comprising -igke /-ikʼe/ ‘STA’, -ite /-ite/ ‘ACT’, -iwe /-iʋe/ ‘DAT’, -ibi /-ibi/ ‘INS’, -apa /-apa/ ‘VOC’, -aje /-aje/ ‘ALL’, -ija /-ija/ ‘LOC’, -ati /-ati/ ‘ABL’ and -iṇi /-inˤi/ ‘PART’.

The noun displays the following derivational morphology: 11 suffixes, namely -ach /-at͡ʃ/ ‘little’, -ef /-ef/ ‘big’, -en /-en/ ‘old’, -iñ /-iɲ/ ‘new’, -am /-am/ ‘good’, -aj /-aj/ ‘bad’, -iwa /-iʋa/ ‘have’, -apa /-apa/ ‘use’, -ape /-ape/ ‘see’, -ise /-ise/ ‘make’ and -aña /-aɲa/ ‘break’

The Adjective

In Kich, the adjective has the following structure: an obligatory prefix expressing case, comprising k- /k-/ ‘STA’, rd- /ɖ-/ ‘ACT’, ṇ- /nˤ-/ ‘DAT’, rs- /ʂ-/ ‘INS’, rn- /ɳ-/ ‘VOC’, gk- /kʼ-/ ‘ALL’, p- /p-/ ‘LOC’, sh- /ʃ-/ ‘ABL’ and ḍ- /dˤ-/ ‘PART’ followed by the root.

Numerals

The numeral in Kich stands alone without any prefixes or suffixes attached to it.

Determiners

In Kich, the determiner has the following structure: the root followed by an obligatory suffix expressing gender, comprising -fa /-fa/ ‘masc’ and -he /-he/ ‘fem’.

Pronouns

The pronoun in Kich has the following structure: the root followed by an obligatory suffix expressing number, comprising -ja /-ja/ ‘sing’ and -he /-he/ ‘plur’.

In Kich, subject pronouns (but not object pronouns ones) are dropped unless they are stressed. Here is an example where neither of the pronouns are stressed:

Rsoo ṇaaja.

[ʂoː nˤaːja]

ʂoː
love
nˤaː
3.sing.fem
-ja
sing

“He (the boy) loves her (the girl).”

(2)

But here, the word corresponding to he (i.e., the subject) is stressed:

Rsoo ñeeja ṇaaja.

[ʂoː ɲeːja nˤaːja]

ʂoː
love
ɲeː
3.sing.masc
-ja
sing
nˤaː

Compounding

Verbs

Inflectional Categories

All verbal phrase clitics in Kich are enclitics (placed finally), and there are five types: first, a clitic expressing ta, comprising ja /ja/ ‘PAST’; second, a clitic expressing mode, comprising ke /ke/ ‘imperative’, ka /ka/ ‘conditional’ and gka /kʼa/ ‘optative’; third, a clitic expressing voice, comprising rna /ɳa/ ‘passive’; fourth, a clitic expressing negation, comprising ṇe /nˤe/ ‘NEG’; and finally, fifth, a clitic expressing question, comprising je /je/ ‘Q’.

The verb itself does not have any prefixes or suffixes attached to it.

The verb displays the following derivational morphology: five suffixes, namely -ṣi /-sˤi/ ‘begin’, -chi /-t͡ʃi/ ‘stop’, -pi /-pi/ ‘continue’, -gka /-kʼa/ ‘try’ and -rdi /-ɖi/ ‘start’

Syntax

Basic Clause Structure

Constituent Order

Constituent order describes the typical arrangement of the subject (S), verb (V) and object (O) in simple declarative clauses. It is a fundamental parameter in grammatical description and forms one of the clearest ways of characterising the overall structure of a language’s clause system.

The basic constituent order of Kich is Verb–Subject–Object (VSO). Clauses begin with the verb, followed by the subject, with the object in final position. This pattern is attested among various verb-initial languages.

The following examples illustrate the basic, unmarked, constituent order in Kich.

Koo ja løfa biṇiḍite løfa wiwaabigke.

STA

(18)

The language has a fixed constituent order, and major phrases normally appear in a predictable position in the clause. Movement for discourse reasons is highly restricted: topics and foci are expressed not by rearranging elements, but through dedicated constructions such as clefts, focus clauses or topic–comment frames. Constituents remain continuous, and both the relative order of phrases and the internal structure of each phrase are stable. As a result, significant deviations from the basic word order are ungrammatical, and discourse structure is managed through these specialised constructions rather than through word-order variation.

Noun Phrases

Structure and Order

The internal structure of noun phrases in Kich reveals typologically significant preferences in the ordering of nominal constituents. This includes the position of adjectives, numerals, and possessors relative to the noun, each of which can offer clues to the overall headedness of the language.

Possessive constructions are head-initial: the possessed noun precedes the possessor. For instance, Kich expresses “the child’s toy” with the equivalent of “toy child”. This structure is typologically rarer and often co-occurs with verb-initial syntax or with grammatical marking on the noun.

ni løfa pikə̃ːḍigke la løhe niirsigke ma løfa rtógigke

(19)

Case Marking

Kich uses active case marking. Intransitive subjects are divided according to how they participate in the event. More agent-like subjects, such as the subject of ‘run’ or ‘shout’, pattern with transitive subjects and take the active or agentive case. Less agent-like subjects, such as the subject of ‘sleep’ or ‘be ill’, pattern with transitive objects and take the patientive or absolutive case. This system makes sense where the grammar treats control, volition or affectedness as more important than the simple distinction between subject and object.

Modifiers and Determiners

The ordering of demonstratives, articles (if present), and other modifiers in Kich provides further insight into the structure of the noun phrase. These elements frequently exhibit fixed positions and may reveal whether the language favours head-initial or head-final patterns.

Complex Sentences

Relative Clauses

Kich forms relative clauses by placing them before the noun they modify. The modifier takes the form of a finite clause that precedes the head noun without any relative pronoun. The clause shows ordinary clausal structure, with the role of the head noun recoverable from the syntactic position inside the clause.

To illustrate how relative clauses work, let us begin with a simple sentence:

Peḍó ja løhe shğrtigke.

[pedˤə̃ ja lə̃ːhe ʃaiʈikʼe]

pedˤə̃
pat
ja
PAST
lə̃ː
the
-he
fem
ʃaiʈ
cat
-ikʼe
STA

“I patted the cat.”

(25)

We can now add a relative clause modifying the noun:

Peḍó ja kaa ja løfa furnosugko løhe shğrtigke.

[pedˤə̃ ja kaː ja lə̃ːfa fuɳosukʼo lə̃ːhe ʃaiʈikʼe]

pedˤə̃

mouse
-ukʼo
STA
lə̃ː
the
-he
fem
ʃaiʈ
cat
-ikʼe
STA

“I patted the cat that caught the mouse.”

(26)

Relative clauses may themselves contain other relative clauses:

Peḍó ja kaa ja rdi ja løhe rdanegkigke løfa furnosugko løhe shğrtigke.

[pedˤə̃ ja kaː ja ɖi ja lə̃ːhe ɖanekʼikʼe lə̃ːfa fuɳosukʼo lə̃ːhe ʃaiʈikʼe]

-ukʼo
STA
lə̃ː
the
-he
fem
ʃaiʈ
cat
-ikʼe
STA

“I patted the cat that caught the mouse that ate the cheese.”

(27)

Finally, here is an example containing several layers of embedding:

Peḍó ja kaa ja rdi ja ñu ja ni fğja løhe rdanegkigke løfa furnosugko løhe shğrtigke.

[pedˤə̃ ja kaː ja ɖi ja ɲu ja ni faija lə̃ːhe ɖanekʼikʼe lə̃ːfa fuɳosukʼo lə̃ːhe ʃaiʈikʼe]

“I patted the cat that caught the mouse that ate the cheese that I bought.”

(28)

Complementation Strategies

Kich forms complement clauses by nominalising the embedded verb. The nominalised form lacks finite verbal categories and behaves as a noun phrase. Subjects of nominalised clauses occur in the genitive case, and the nominalised verb establishes the semantic content of the complement.

The following example illustrate how complement clauses function:

Gurru ja rdu ja tğhe tekaṭigke løhe rnuluwo ni løfa diikite løhe gurruuhuwo.

[ɡuɽu ja ɖu ja taihe tekatˤikʼe lə̃ːhe ɳuluʋo ni lə̃ːfa diːkite lə̃ːhe ɡuɽuːhuʋo]

“It surprised the teacher that the boy had given the girl an apple.”

(29)

Quotes

Kich expresses quoted or reported speech without a dedicated quotative particle. Quotations appear as ordinary clauses, distinguished only by the surrounding syntactic context or by the use of verbs of speaking.

Here is an example of how quotations are expressed:

Mü ja løfa diikite rsoo kija ni fğja løhe rnuluwo.

[mau ja lə̃ːfa diːkite ʂoː kija ni faija lə̃ːhe ɳuluʋo]
