  • This video will explain how grammatical case works for your conlang, or if you're learning languages in general.
    Hopefully, next month, I'll have a good video.
    Take care~

    My family moved from Ukraine after WW1, during the red scare our family lost the Ukrainian language. Recently, I have decided to revive my family’s language. You are helping me reconnect with my lost mother tongue. Thank you so much for the amazing tutorial!

    This help clear up some of the edge-cases of Grammatical Cases I didn't quite grasp, especially Instrumental which was a case I was interested in.
    Glad you like the fan-art as well. It was a good test of learning how to use restricted palettes to me.

      I'm glad I was able to help as I know cases are one of those things that are a pain to get the hang of. If you need any more help, you know where to get it!
      And thank you kindly for the fanart, as I've said before, it's absolutely fantastic and I appreciate it hugely!

    Thank you! I've only ever learned languages that do not use cases, in the past, such as French and Spanish. Now I am struggling to understand them, as I am learning Ukrainian. The alphabet was not nearly as hard to learn as I thought, and the pronounciation was generally wonderfully straight-foward, and I was doing okay, until I ran into cases.
    I knew about their existance, but had never tried to grasp exactly what they were, as I never really had a need. Now I'm like...well, fascianted, but frustrated.
    I hope to learn Hungarian next, I know they have cases, I hope that understanding them now will help me out later.

    I'd be nice and helpful perhaps if you could possible make a video or a course, maybe, explaining the Latin and English grammatical structures, morphological and lexical changes from old to modern day English. I especially interested on the relation between Latin and English.

    • @Dracheneks

      I'll certainly look into that, the evolution and history of natural languages is something I find rather fascinating.
      I'll add it to my ideas, thank you!

  • @shinydewott

    A semi related question: can a postpositional language that has a Verb first word order (V??) turn verbs into adpositions? If so, would the verbs realistically be postpositions or prepositions?

  • @atomicwoodpecker0123
    @atomicwoodpecker0123 2 месяца назад

    great video, my only complaint is I would replace "do-er" and "reciever" as the Agent and Patient. Complicated? Yeah but once you get used to it, its so useful for expanding upon more linguistic stuff.

  • @skeptic781
    @skeptic781 2 года назад +1

    If a language has some cases but want to convey and action like going "to" a place, do they use adpositions instead or how does that work?

    • @Dracheneks
      @Dracheneks  2 года назад +1

      Good question! You can absolutely use adpositions, however you could also use a case like the Lative case, which marks the noun one is going towards, like a case.

    • @nirvanawayne9503
      @nirvanawayne9503 2 года назад +1

      I would recommend checking out Biblaridion's video on noun case (I think it's in the feature focus playlist).
      As an example he gave this:
      Shop-GEN stomach-DAT
      Where "stomach-DAT" became an adposition meaning "into". (Which later was added onto the "shop-GEN" to form a new, more specific locative meaning "into".)

    I didnt love the video, but i liked it... i used to think that nominative, accusative, etc cases classify sentences so it was really annoying to me when the internet told me that a sentence has both nominative case and accusative case which is impossible coz the sentence can only be in one case!!! 😾But now i understood that the sentences arent classified...the nouns are!!! 😬😒

    • @Dracheneks
      @Dracheneks  Год назад

      I'm glad I was able to help you with cases! They're not super easy to understand, in fairness. They're quite a funny thing to learn, as normally you'd just use them automatically and not have to worry about it.
      I'm sorry the video wasn't great though! What did you dislike about it?

  • @kennystimpson2775
    @kennystimpson2775 3 года назад +2

    I enjoy learning languages, the case system is fascinating, im creating a language using the five vowel system and will be using five cases. Idk if this is a good idea but ill have one vowel match to each case. (Nominative, accusative, dative, gentitive, (german learner lol) and instrumental). wish me luck!
