Typological structure
Eβmiʔ is mostly a morphologically isolating language, with an additional but strongly marked agglutinative feature in derivative morphology.
In an isolating languages semantical or grammatical morphemes are almost coincident with single words, and they do not change or add any flecting affix to specify their role in a sentence or their number:
mühɖa wolf, a wolf, wolves, the wolf, the wolves
However, words usually cannot have more than one grammatical role in a sentence.
The basic word order is essentially VOS (Verb-Object-Subject).
vuɣner moʈ muʔɖa mɔçmiʔ (the) person sees (the) cow
The entire system is set according to typological parameters of the head-modifier (or head-initial) type:
- verb - object
- preposition - noun
- noun - adjective
- noun - relative clause
