Sentence Structure[]

Here are some useful facts about the sentence structure of Veptimese.

Sentences are composed starting with a tense, either Adardor, Adardo, Adard or Adar.
The tense is followed by a verb/question, then an object, animal, person, etc.
This is followed by Time and Place in that order, but they are optional.
There is no Veptimese word for "is" or any variation of it by its, but "is the" is "Urka".

The vowel A must be put at the start of the latter word if two constants are next to each other between words. This is always excluding a prefix. This does not apply between sentences.

Examples[]

Adardo araaka Ugla krarc aKrea. (Veptims will slaughter many Elves.)
Adardo omat O krarco urk aKrea! (I will kill all of the Elves!)
Adard agrar ux! Grac O [NAME]. (Hello there! I am [NAME])
Adardo krestu kal Omer urg Agu? (When will we march to war?)
Adardo krarcur ome Omedo. Adaardo krarcur. (Soon my brothers. Soon.)
