For example: aldmer man lindai the aldmer who was rich.Īldmeris verbs have three tenses the present, the future and the past. The relative pronoun man is also used as a phrase meaning "which was/who was".For example, "he killed the bear" = "Ocato killed the bear / the man killed the bear." There is no pronoun for "he" or "she" instead of them, a noun is always used."He has a terrible disease" = "He is sick with a terrible disease"."Do you have any money?" = "Is there any money in your pockets?".You can't ask "do you have any money?" Aldmeris phrases those kind of questions in a different way, making some speech patters very different from typical real-world Western patterns. So, if the word it describes is in plural, so is the adjective.Īldmeris completely lacks possessive, meaning that is has no equivalent of the Tamrielic "have" verb. The greatest difference to Tamrielic is that the Aldmeris adjective had plural form.
The declension of adjectives is similar, but lacks the genitive form, just like in Tamrielic. Buroth aldmeru means '(the) servant of an aldmer and bura aldmere means '(the) servants of aldmeri' Example: The word buroth ( servant) is an O-ending noun, and the word aldmer is a consonantal ending noun.The noun are divided into the declesion classes simply by the final sound in singular. As in Tamrielic, the only declensions are the nominative and genitive, but both have singular and plural forms. The Aldmeris noun and adjective declines in six classes. Neither definite article nor indefinite article exist in Aldmeris in any form. The Aldmer alphabet consisted of the following lettersː a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z The biggest differences are grammatical and phonetic changes that distance it from Ehlnofex and more closely to the other modern elven languages. Merethic Era Aldmeris is known as Old Aldmeris, while 1st Era Aldmeris is known as Modern Aldmeris or Elvish. The human languages adopted a similar alphabet, as was the case with Atmoramal copying the structure of the Falmeris alphabet ( ).Īldmeris is still used in the 1st Era by the Aldmer, but it has slowly evolved itself over the millenium. The same alphabet was used for all the other elven languages. Most other elven languages evolved from Aldmeris, including: Ayleidoon, Bosmeris, Chimeris, Dwemeris, Falmeris, Orcish and Pyandonean.Įhlnofex didn't use a written language, the Aldmer developed their own written alphabet. It is structurally similar to Ehlnofex, but more consistent in grammatical syntax and phonetic meaning. It evolved from the ancient language of the Ehlnofey, Ehlnofex, by the Middle Merethic Era. The language of the Aldmer is one of Tamriel's oldest languages.
