Fegosian is the language spoken in Alfegos, and in former Alfegos enclaves. It is not usually a second language, yet a second more conventional language is normally learned due to the restrictions of modern technology.

Word Construction

In Fegosian, few words are single characters. Rather, they can be a combination of characters in one pictogram, or a vertical coloumn of symbols can represent a word. These are shown in the phonetic spelling used in modern applications as seperate blocks of letters divided by an apostrophe. e.g. Rai'Toi - Literally translated means "kingdom of all", though is usually interpreted as "The People's Nation".

Sentance Construction

A basic sentance in Fegosian is ordered as "Object", "Subject", "Verb". Therefore, to say something like "Ki'lea entered the forest", it would be arranged as "The forest Ki'lea entered", or in phonetic spelling - Al'Fego Ki'lea Gres'in.

When using pronouns, the same rules apply. When using adjectives, the adjective follows in front of the word it is describing. When using adverbs, the same rules are used as in adjectives.

If two clauses are to be strung together, the connective word "co" is used to indicate another sentance, with any connectives being used shown after the "co".
