Dapiica

Dapiica is a polysynthetic langauge spoken by some sentient newts, who live on a volcanic moon orbiting a gas giant.

This is version 2 of the language - the first version was made when I didn't understand what I was doing, so it has some pretty glaring flaws. My goals for version 2 are:


 * Preserve as much of the original as possible
 * Make the phonotactics a little more interesting
 * Get the grammar working properly and make more sense (no more silly "it's ergative" when it isn't, no valency-reducing-operations-that-don't-reduce-valency, no overly complex copula)
 * Remove some of the features that are better explored in Wụúgụ (like the "and then" prefix, which is like a poorly made converb).
 * Make the lexicon more comprehensive and complex, define at least 200 words.
