Genesis Chap.11 V.1-9

Villian is an attempt to create and constuct a new langauge from scratch. It's vocabulary is still quite limited, but workable, the current lexicon is around 950 words, but the structure of the langauge, complex number system and syntax is in place.

Villnian takes its cues from various languages including Latin, Swedish, German and Chinese.

The main point is that Villnian is a language constructed without the need for the verb to be. The tense of a phrase, sentence or portion, like Chinese, is determined by a suffix placed at the end. In Villians' case, the past tense is indicated by 'lin', future tense by 'hav' and with the present tense there is no suffix.

As far as sentence structure is concerned, Villian is not so rigid as to where parts of the sentence should be placed, it is intended that a speakers' first language can be mirrored in the way they structure sentences inVillnain. However, as a basic rule of thumb, the conjunction is placed before the object.

Another feature of Villnian is that it omits the and a, resulting in a more terse, concentrated language.

Like Chinese, the placing of a suffix indicates a question. In Villnian the suffix is 'man'. The suffix 'ro' indicates that the phrase or sentence is negated.


1st person:  I ted,  My tedmas

2nd person:  You dur, Yours durmas

3rd person: (He/She) don dona, his/hers; him/her donmas donamas

1st person: We (plural), tedu; ours tedumas

2nd person: You (plural), duro; yours duromas

3rd person: Them (plural), donem; theirs doneman






















































































A simple example:

Take the sentence He is going  to the church. The translation is Don ran tor eklesaan. To negate the sentence it's Don ran tor eklesaan ro. To say He will go to the church, it's Don ran tor eklesaan hav. He went to church is Don ran tor eklesaan lin. Suffixes are added in the order lin/hav, then ro. Thus  Didn't he go to church? is Don ran tor eklesaan lin-ro-man? Note He didn't go to chuch is Don ran tor eklesaan lin-ro.

  • To indicate more than one the suffix 'em' is added. Thus, meem is cat, meemem is cats
  • To intensify a would, 'am' is added as a prefix, trecnem means surprise, am-trecnem means big surprise, gelt is strong, so am-gelt is very strong.

  • For adverbs, the prefix is 'mas'
  • To indicate the suffix 'like' (as in childlike), add the suffix 'ast'
  • For 'ed', (i.e. blessed), add the suffix 'li'

Deictic Pronouns:












Villnian follows an ordered number system. The numbers one to twelve are:

1 nan
2 sha
3 cet
4 frei
5 wo
6 secca
7 kevan
8 lait
9 orogon
10 met
11 anolo
12 ton

The numbers 12 to 19 are:

13 ancet
14 anfrei
15 anwo
16 ansec
17 ankev
18 anlait
19 anogon

Here, the prefix 'an' is added to the single digit numbers.

The numbers 20 to 23 are:

20 shasa
21 shansanan
22 shasasha
23 shasacet

Here, 'sa' is added.

This is how to make higher numbers:

30 cetsa
31 cetsanan
32 cetsasha
33 cetsacet

40 freisa
41 fresanan
44 freisafrei

50 wosa
51 wosanan
52 wosasha
55 wosawo

60 seccsa
61 seccsanan

90 orosa
99 orosaoro

100 nantet (Tet added
101 nantetan

121 nantet shasanan

122 nantet shasasha

200 shatet

1000 nanton (ton added

2000 shaton

10000 nandor (dor added)

100000 nanret (ret added)

1000000 nanmilla (milla added)

one billion nan nangissa (gissa added)

one trillion nangissanan (gissanan added)

Note: For decimals, add the suffix me. For example, tenths are same (pron. saamay); 2 tenths is sha same, 2 hundreths sha tetme etc.

Now for some extended examples. A good text to 'test drive' a new language is the first chapter from John's Gospel. Here it is according to the New King James Version:


2 He was in the beginning with God.





















23 He said: “I am

      ‘ The voice of one crying in the wilderness:

      “ Make straight the way of the LORD,”’

   as the prophet Isaiah said.”

24 Now those who were sent were from the Pharisees.
