About Tsiirean
Tsiirean is a new language, and as it stands, there are many systems and functionalities that are yet to be defined. Expect everything regarding this language to change dramatically in the future.
Tsiirean draws inspiration from languages such as Arabic, in the sonority and structure of the words. It draws inspiration from Japanese and Portuguese in other aspects, such as the verbal conjugations and the interplay between nouns and adjectives.
It is unique (or at least as far as I know) in its use of determiners, which can be inflected to indicate the syntactic function of the words they determine.
