Shared Alliantic (translated from "Վ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиı" IPA: /tɬalʲjanʲi/, SA for short) is a constructed language created by MyNames_55 as a hobby, and designed with simplicity and precision in mind. It began development in October 2023 and is currently ~90% complete.
Shared Alliantic draws inspiration from various languages, including Finnish, Japanese, and Turkish, as well as language families like Slavic, Germanic, and Romance. It also incorporates unique features. There is a great emphasis on affixes, which define aspects like time, gender, case, part of speech and more.
Etymology[edit]
Its name is a translation from “Վ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиı” (IPA: /tɬalʲjanʲi/), which can also be translated as “Common Alliantic language”. Such a name can be explained by the grammar and lexicon being shared with different languages.
The prefix “Վ” signifies that the language is a collection of features from different languages. The base “𐓟ʌ‘ჲи” means “alliance” and comes from some Slavic languages. The suffix “ı” marks an adjective, though the whole word is treated as a noun because it’s short for “Վ𐓟ʌ‘ჲиıмove (IPA: /tɬal’jan’imɔvɛ/), where “мove" stands for “language”.
Phonology[edit]
Shared Alliantic has 20 consonants (/m, n, p, b, t, d, k, g, s, z, ʂ, ʐ, f, v, θ, h, ɦ, j, r, ɭ/), 5 affricates (/ts, dz, ɖʐ, tɕ, tɬ/) and 6 vowels (/i, u, ɪ, ɛ, ɔ, a/), as shown below. Phonological features like diphthongs (mostly ◌̅), vowel hiatus, contrasting vowel length (with ◌:), consonant clusters are present in SA. Tones and vowel harmony are not present. There are also no strict stressing rules for separate words, but usually the word root is stressed.

Phonotactics[edit]
Some letters can be replaced with other letters where it can be done without changing pronunciation. Doing so does not count as an error, and the word doesn’t change in meaning. It can be done to simplify pronunciation.

It is done to personal preference, and the list is to be finished.
Writing system[edit]
Shared Alliantic has a left-to-right alphabetic writing system with separate vowels and consonants. It contains 12 vowels, 25 consonants and 18 punctuation marks. All the characters are Unicode-compatible, but most fonts may not be suitable for displaying them.
The characters come from different scripts like Greek, Cyrrilic, Latin, Armenian, Shavian, Runic, Kanji, Malayam, Deseret and IPA, and most of them require only one stroke.
IPA | Glyph | Gloss | Glyph | Gloss | |

/◌̥ / | ‾◌ or ◌̅ | Voiceless | ᒪ◌ | ¿◌ | |
/◌ʲ/ | _◌ or ◌ | Palatalized | ˥◌ | ◌… | |
/◌ː/ | :◌ | Gemination | ◌˧ | ◌: | |

◌ㆍ | ◌. | ◌」 | ◌) | ||
◌, | ◌, | 『◌ | «◌ | ||
ᒧ◌ | ¡◌ | ◌』 | ◌» |
All punctuation marks outside of the table are the same as in English.
- ◌̅ can either make letters voiceless or allow aspiration. For example, “P” is pronounced /r/, but “P̅” is pronounced /ɹ/. “Ҁ:и𐓟” is pronounced [ji’ːna], but “Ҁ:иa̅” is pronounced [ji’ːnḁʰ]. It is mostly used for loanwords.
- ◌ functions like the “ь” in some Slavic languages. For example, “T𐓟тı” is [tatʲi], but “T𐓟тı” is [tʲatʲi].
- :◌ marks gemination. For example, “M𐓟иo” is /manɔ/, but “:M:𐓟иo” is ['mːaːnɔ].
- ‘◌ functions like “´” in Ukrainian (i.e. in “м´ясо”), or like “ъ” in Russian (i.e. “объяснение”).
- ˡ◌ makes the next sound reversed. For example, “Ҁ” is /jɔ/, but “ ˡҀ” is /ɔj/.
- ◌ㆍ marks the end of the sentence.
- ◌, is the equivalent of a comma.
- ᒧ◌ functions like “¡” in Spanish, but is always placed in the beginning of the sentence.
- ᒪ◌ functions like “¿” in Spanish, but is always placed in the beginning of the sentence.
- ˥◌ functions like “…”, but is always placed in the beginning of the sentence.
- ◌˧ is the equivalent of a colon.
- ◌꜔ is the equivalent of a semicolon.
- 「◌」function like regular brackets in English.
- 『◌』function like quotation marks in English.
Alphabet[edit]
The Shared Alliantic alphabet consists of 3 sections. Some of the glyphs looks similar, but have distinctive sounds to avoid confusion.
Some glyphs have two ways of pronunciation: this means both ways can be used interchangeably.
The only exception to this rule are Jalar, Jolor, Julur, Jeler, Jilir: if there is an apostrophe before these letters, they are read the first way. If no apostrophe is written before them, they’re read the second way, softening the consonant before it.

Grammar[edit]
Shared Alliantic uses the subject-verb-object word order. Nouns and verbs are always followed by their modifiers, and the modifiers have no strict order.
It has declarative, imperative, and interrogative sentences. Interrogative sentences can have either the SVO or VOS word order. Imperative sentences can have either the SVO or VOS word order.
Modifiers[edit]
SA phrases are head-initial. Demonstratives, numerals, and possessive pronouns come before the head, unlike other modifiers.
Adjectives are formed by adding the adjective suffix to the root. On the example of “Frute” (fruit) with the root “Frut”, the resulting adjective “Fruti” will then mean “fruity” or “fruit-like”. Comparative and superlative adjectives are constructed similarly. Prefixes “ny-“ and “my-“ construct comparative and superlative of the adjective respectively.
Adverbs are formed in the same way as adjectives, and are treated similarly. For example, “Mano” (man) with the root “Man” gives the adjective “manoj” which means “man-like”, as in “like a man”. Yet, “manoj” is also an adverb meaning “manly”. Adverb comparison works nearly identically to adjectives. For example, in “Many” (person), the adverb “mani” (humanely) would have the comparisons “nimani” and “mimani”, which stand for “more humane(ly)” and “most humane(ly)” respectively. Comparisons can also be used to represent the relation of the subject to the topic, helping put a stress on how honest and interested the subject is.
Other modifiers WIP
Genders[edit]
There are 4 genders present. The extra gender, as opposed to the most common 3 gender system, can replace all the other 3 genders.
Question | Pronoun | Gloss | Example | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
SA | English | SA | English | ||
ᒪ 𐓒იㆍ | Ωи | They | Ambiguous | М𐓟нი | Person |
ᒪ 𐓒oㆍ | Oи | He | Masculine | Λеρo | Male teacher |
ᒪ 𐓒𐓟ㆍ | 𐒷и | She | Feminime | 𐒷ρ𐑰𐓟 | Female doctor |
ᒪ 𐓒eㆍ | Ҽи | It | Neuter | Tρe | Tree |
Male and female genders are applied to animate beings with definitive gender. Neuter is applied to inanimate things or beings with no gender. Ambiguous is applied when the gender is ambiguous, purposefully or not.
Pronouns[edit]
Shared Alliantic has 8 persons, including singular and plural formal persons. The formal persons can be used for the other persons. There is an English-like pronoun system. All of them are always capitalized.
PS CHANGE THEM TO NOT CONFLICT WITH VERBS
Person | Subject
/ Object |
Independent
Possessive | |
---|---|---|---|
S. | 1st | 𐑙(ი), Мი | 𐑙ı, Мიı |
2nd | Tი, Dი, Ҁ | Tიı, Dიı, Ҁı | |
3rd | Ωи | Ωиı | |
Formal | Ʋი, Vი, Tი | Ʋიı, Vიı, Tიı | |
P. | 1st | Ωcი | Ωсი𐑨 |
2nd | Ωρი | Ωρი𐑨 | |
3rd | Ωиი | Ωиი𐑨 | |
Formal | Ʋიc, Vიc, Tიc | Ʋიcი𐑨, Vიcი𐑨, Tიcი𐑨 |
In all of them, the “ი” changes according to gender. This excludes all “ı” outside of “Ҁ”.
There are multiple versions of 2nd p.s. and formal singular. It is because "Tი" is polite, "Dი" is for acquitances, "Ҁ" is for friends. "Ʋი" is polite formal, "Vი" is just formal, "Tი" is friendly formal. Both versions of 1st p.s. are interchangeable.
Dependent possessive and reflexive are formed like instrumentative/genitive and dative cases respectively.
Nouns[edit]
Most nouns in SA have either “-ი” “-o” “-𐓟” or “-e” suffix right after the word root, which indicates gender. All nouns in SA are capitalised, no matter if the noun is proper or common. Plural forms of nouns always have an “-c” suffix after the gender suffix.
Proper nouns are transliterated into SA from their native language, often marked with 『◌』. These translations then behave like root words or whole nouns, conjugated inside the 『◌』.
All common nouns have the “-ი” “-o” “-𐓟” or “-e” suffixes, and proper nouns can sometimes have no gender suffix.
Affixes[edit]
Affixes are very common in Shared Alliantic, and they have a lot of uses. They are used to mark tenses, person, part of speech, case, opinion and more. Note that the “ი” is not gender-related, outside of “-ი”

Cases[edit]
There are 7 separate cases in Shared Alliantic 0.9 (genitive and possessive are interchangeable). There can be as many cases in a sentence as there are subjects/objects. Cases can be used on specific nouns in order to put emphasis on them, and the chosen case also emphasise on specific ideas.
There is no strict order of cases, but nominative is used when no other case is used. The suffix of a case is taken either from the last one or two letters of the question word, except nominative, which has no suffix.
Case suffixes are added last.
Case | Question | Gloss | Example | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Shared Alliantic | English | |||
Nominative | ᒪ 𐓒ıㆍ | X (Who/What) | 𐓒𐓟тიㆍ | A cat. |

Ablative | ᒪ𐓒ıվㆍ | From X | Sevys Ini Dიվㆍ | We are saving them from you. |
Verbs[edit]
Most verbs in SA have the “-იи” suffix after the word root, which then conjugates according to person.
Person | Conjugation | |
---|---|---|
S. | 1st | -(𐑨)-y |
2nd | -(𐑨)-ი | |
3rd | -(𐑨)-იN | |
Formal | -(𐑨)-(ი)мიρ | |
P. | 1st | -(𐑨)-იc |
2nd | -(𐑨)-იρ | |
3rd | -(𐑨)-ი𐑨 | |
Formal | -(𐑨)-(ი)мიρс |
In all of them, the “ი” changes according to gender.
Formal persons can also have either a separate ending or the ending of one of the three persons, depending on the context. Its own conjugation is usually used when the pronoun is omitted, and it uses the other endings when the pronoun is kept.
Tenses[edit]
There are 9 grammatical tenses in Shared Alliantic. The table below shows how they're formed.
Aspect | Tense | ||

Continuous | Гe- ... -(ი)ʋ | Ɣ- ... -(ი)ʋ | Ve- ... -(ი)ʋ |
Perfect | Ɣ qe- ... | Ɣ ... | Ɣ ve- ... |

Mood conjunction guide[edit]
Verb conjugation according to grammatical moods in SA is done by adding affixes to verbs. Here an example verb "ʌıρიи" (to read) is used to help demonstrate mood verb conjugation.
Mood | Conjugation | Example | |
---|---|---|---|
Shared Alliantic | English | ||
Indicative | … | Ɣʌıρoʋㆍ | He is reading. |
Subjunctive | λი- ... | ㄱ𐒳იʌıρıվიρ Иı𐑪y𐑳ıẟㆍ | If only you read the book... |

Inferential | ʊი- ... | Иᴕʊიʌıρიρ 𐑑y𐑳есıẟㆍ | They are said to not read books. |
"..." stands for the verb.
Voices[edit]
Shared Alliantic has 3 voices: active, passive and middle voice.
Voice | Example | ||
---|---|---|---|
SA WIP | English | Gloss | |
Active | Gebakub Brede. | I baked bread. | Verb contains the subject, I,
and the case helps put the stress on it. |
Passive | Brede ge bakub. | Bread was baked by me. | Verb contains the object, I,
and the case helps put the stress on it. |
Middle | Brede gebakijtliy. | Bread baked. | Verb contains both the subject and the object,
bread, and the case helps out the stress on it. |
These examples would also work without the cases demonstrated, but these cases help with demonstrating the voices and put the stress where needed. Word order in these voices, however, stays as shown because of the SVO sentence structure.
Minor rules[edit]
- Nouns are always capitalised. Other parts of speech are not capitalised unless they start the sentence.
- Nouns and verbs can be connected with the same and other parts of speech in a sentence to form one word, but they may not be connected with each other.
- The pronoun may be omitted if the verb is conjugated to that person.
- Question mark, exclamation mark and ellipsis are only pronounced in the first word of the sentence.
- Words can have ":" to put more emphasis on them.
- There are no strict stressing rules. However, if a syllable is has “:”, it is then stressed. Otherwise, word root has the stress.
- Noun suffixes can also replace the pronoun, and added to nouns or adjectives can indicate possession or possessive/genitive case.
Numerals[edit]
Shared Alliantic has a numeral system different from Arabic or Roman. It is segmental, meaning the numerals are connected together to represent bigger numbers. They are also read as one word each, with each 4 diigts being separated with "mi" during speech, and optionally "–" when writing.
Numerals are treated as word roots. The "-i" suffix shows amount or an ordinal number. The "-e" suffix shows a number, as in "The duo" or "A two".
Digits with a zero are ignored when writing or pronouncing, including the prefix.
The thousand numeral is only used as an equivalent for "000" inside bigger numbers, but not as a standalone number.
Numeral | SA | English |
---|---|---|
1 | V𐓟 | One |
2 | Ty | Two |
3 | Tჲ | Three |
4 | Ⳡı | Four |
5 | Շჲ | Five |
6 | Ze | Six |
7 | Cᴕ | Seven |
8 | Tҁ | Eight |
9 | Иҁ | Nine |
0 | Иo | Zero |
1000 | Mı | Thousand |
Numbers 1-9999 are formed similarly to the Cistercian numeral system, but are written left to right from smallest to biggest digit, similar to how dozens are pronounced in German.
Ones | | | Tens (bi-) |
---|---|---|
Hundreds (ni-) | Thousands (mi-) |
<illustrationsss>
The line in the middle of all numbers acts as a base where the digits are attached to.
When placing numerals at the bottom half of the line, they are flipped. When numerals are written as dozens or thousands, they are mirrored.
Examples[edit]
The table below shows some number examples:
