Atario is the language spoken by the citizens of the Shalman Empire. It is also the universal language of the planet of Andromeda, alongside Greek.
Atario grammar is basically based on Modern Greek. Whereas in English there is a certain word order in a sentense, in Atario (and thus in Greek) there is no word order. For example:
English: I went to Ylmeria yesterday.
Atario:
1) ēltiri Ylmêria'egg ŝtat (I went to Ylmeria yesterday)
2) ēltiri ŝtat Ylmêria'egg (I went yesterday to Ylmeria)
3) Ylmêria'egg ēltiri ŝtat (To Ylmeria I went yesterday)
4) ŝtat Ylmêria'egg ēltiri (Yesterday to Ylmeria I went)
Ylmêria'egg= to Ylmeria
ēltiri= I went
ŝtat= yesterday
