OUTLINE OF UDUGI GRAMMAR:
As in Cherokee, Udugi has no definite or indefinite article, but if it is felt necessary, “hia” (this) can be used for the direct article, and “saquu” (one) can be used for the indirect article.
Generally the Cherokee/Udugi word order is SVO (subject-verb-object), and as in English adjectives go before the noun.
Cherokee often does not have plural forms of nouns and usually prefixes them when it does, but in Udugi, “-di” can always be added at the end to indicate the plural..
In both Cherokee and Udugi, prepositions (in, on, with, etc.) go after instead of before the noun.
Unlike Cherokee, Udugi has suffixed tense and mood forms: -ase = present tense, -ise = past, -ose = future, -use =conditional, -u = imperative.
Udugi indicates the direct object with the suffix “-ne.” Accompanying adjectives need not agree.
VOCABULARY:
Except for a few neologisms, all Udugi vocabulary comes from Cherokee.
PITCH: Udugi ignores pitch.
DIALECTS:
Udugi has no dialects so far, but prefers the Eastern (NC) forms.
THE LANGUAGE:
Udugi (pronounced udúgi) is a Cherokee-based constructed language. The name “Udugi” means “hope.” The language was created by Donald C. Traxler aka Donald Jacobson Traxler.
Please do not try to use the language for secret purposes, because it is no secret, and 80% of it can be understood by a Cherokee speaker with no prior study.
