[comments] [history] sst,sloya,interrogative,pronouns,who,what Below is a table comparing the different interrogative pronouns in standard Sloya, Tithkeim, and Slojavni dialects:
| English | Sloya | Tithkeim | Slojavni |
| what | tos | tos | tos |
| who | te | te | tej |
| when | tsane | sane | sane |
| where | toqo | topo | topo |
| why | toteq | totep | todep |
| how | tokse | tokse | tokse |
Most of the interrogative pronouns comes from the stem, or nucleus, to-, and are then suited to match the appropriate case declension to suit the right interrogative situation, except for “who,” te, specifically.
With the exception of “when,” tsane, most of these words are composed of the to- compound. I have excluded the additional case declension endings to better suit the English profile of interrogative pronouns. Most of these endings only somewhat differ in meaning, such as:
| English | Sloya |
| on which | tosan |
| with which | totas |
This merely demonstrates the agglutinative vestiges that are found and preserved in Sloya and in its closest living dialects that only really differ in pronunciation or phonology. ✎ Edit Article ✖ Delete Article
