About Nô
Ba su !
Nô is a language that is spoken in the far west of Siberia. It looks like Vietnamese, but it is actually very, very, very different (It's not even in the same family!)
-It's a tonal language with 4 clicks.
-Includes 8 tones per vowel, five vowels = 40 different vowel sounds!
-Includes an alphabet of a whopping 82 different phonemes (including diphthongs), more than tripling English's amount of letters. Hungarian has 44? That's cute.
-4 cases: Nominative, Accusative, Dative, and Genitive.
-Words usually have one or two syllables
-Different greetings for gender, number, and familiarity. Yay!
-Conjugation of verbs for singular, dual, paucal and plural.
-VSO order
