Eatoaq

Eatoaq is a semi-hypothetical version of Toaq by User:Loekıa that builds on Toaq Delta and the ideas of the Clause Reform proposal.

Quoting the blog post it was defined in, it has the following features:

Sentences and fragments segment themselves

Any small word can withstand lack of stress

Nullary verbs and trailing adjuncts still exist

Conjunctions work by general principles, with sensible, emergent defaults

Discursives and adverbs of quantification become recognized parts of speech

Generics and variables have clearly defined roles

Donkey sentences can be expressed without paraphrase

Mechanical parsers can understand entire discourses

Rigid, linear scope is balanced by appropriately flexible word order

And critically, every part of the grammar is most naturally defined in linguistic terms without any mention of parsing strategies.

Eatoaq has only three tones: broadly speaking, and are merged. If you see someone say nâ or bî, or object incorporation using the falling tone e.g. baq, they are probably speaking Eatoaq.
