Epistle XLVII: Grammar in the Battle
My Dearest Puey,
Oh this battle is e'er so exciting. Now I know you’ve told me many times not to follow you out into battle, I did try my best to hide in the barrels and in the winding tunnels of the ship, but truly, it was quite inevitable that I would somehow bump back into you. But I promise you, I’ll just sit here on the barrel and not get in the way at all. I’ll just write the next letter to you and not interfere at all even when
PUEY LOOK OUT BEHIND YOU!
Sorry, I didn’t mean to write everything that I say. Here, I’m sitting here and being quiet and good. Oh Puey, you are just so beautiful and athletic in the battle. Tentacles are whipping outwards, Monsters are looming out of the void, Dæmons are spilling outwards and
[page smeared with a sticky red and black substance]
I don’t know whether I’ll be able to cut that ooze off of the papyrus. No matter, I’ll get Karuláta to recopy the letter for me. In the last epistle which I wrote for you, and which with such brilliant fun I managed to sneak into the war rede and hand unto you, even though Fhólus and Aîya started screaming when I fell down from the chandileer, and the Traîkhiim knocked down a few candles, and there was a bit of a row for a moment, but after that everything worked according to plan, I got the letter right into your hand and snuck out, and in that letter I described the seven Cases of Babel. I have decided that the easiest course of action for the next few epistles will be to describe the prefixes one by one and show some of their relations one to another. In general I shall discuss the prefixes in their order.
All participles, personal pronouns, and relative pronouns may be inflected with the addition of affixes. Personal pronouns and relative pronouns have a smaller range of affixes that they shall take, so unless I indicate it, the affixes I describe may only be applied to participles. Affixes must occur in a set order. Most of these affixes can be classified by type, for instance today I shall write about level two prefixes which are honorifics. The numbers are just a convenient way of describing their relative position one to another, it’s just a way to think of them. So, for instance, the level two prefix for the vocative case ai- must come before the level three prefix for singularity tsena- and so the correct inflection of ai-tsena-qiel is aîtsènaqiel and not tsenaaiqiel or aiqieltsena or something like that. Children just naturally learn the order of the affixes and adults are seldom even aware that they come in any specific order, although sometimes I hear Karuláta or Siêthiyal say something like, I thinked or I was like or I writed which is just a sign of their using the affixes in the incorrect order.
That’s one disgusting monster looming before us. Get it Puey! Get it! Hurray! Oh that’s horrible. I shall not describe what’s happening unto its blood bubble head at this moment. Some things are just beyond the boundaries of language.
Please note, my love, that in the following sections I shall be writing the clauses or sentences are in the xhrànte presumptive mode and in the comment mood unless I indicate it or unless it’s important to know. The presumptive mode and comment mode make up the majority of utterances in Babel, at least half of them, and they are the sometimes the easiest sentences to say, but not always, as you will see in topic-comment constructions and habeo and negative constructions.
The first tribe of Prefixes are:
Level One Prefix: Conjunccioun
Eiqhor· Ond, also, eke, then, but, hit happened Þæt, however, nonetheleß
Xhnoet + Ond, also, eke, then, but, hit happened Þæt, however, nonetheleß
Es + Ond, also, eke, until
Kho+ Zo, then, thus
Qte + Direct quotacioun
Ejaqe + Direct quotacioun
Khlie + Parenthesis, dash
But I shall not discuss them now, these conjuctions I shall explain along with the level fifteen suffixes which correspond unto them. We shall discuss honorifics and vocatives, and this will reinforce what I’m teaching you about the vocative case as well as the use of the other cases.

All societies in the Dreamtime, whether in the Imperium, or in the Clockwork Heresy, in the Spirit Realms, in the Undergloom, or in the Starscapes and Heavens, are stratified socities. Even among the Immortals there is an hierarchy among the Dreaming Lords of Earth and Sea and the Dancers who are the Stars, and the countless Spirits who are their slaves. Our language reflect this as it must. Correctly translating these honorifics can be a little difficult in the language of beasts, but I shall attempt to create some conventional equivalent for you, my beloved.
Xaô·, Tóngai +, Jai·, Jhao, Kongai + “Honored”
These lrànkhus prefixes are used to denote respect and politeness. And so one says Xaôqráyìngtexing and tóngai qráyìngtexing, oh mine honored mother, and jaiqráyìngtexing and kongai qráyìngtexing, mine honored mother and jhaoqiêling, an honored hill.
Lwór·, Xhnéyemai+, Xau·, Tlhoi· Xhneyemaike+, “Beloved”
These prefixes imply a close and voluntary love, perhaps to show that someone or something is dear and precious. One often uses these to refer to Spirits and Immortals and the Father of Paradise. Sometimes one uses the beloved prefixes to imply a more emotional love rather than the loved prefixes, but I am not convinced of that. And so one says LwórPuîye and Xhnéyemai Puîye for Oh Beloved Puey and XauPuîye and xhneyemaike Puîye for beloved Puey and tlhoiqiêling for beloved hill.
Ányar·, Khmae+, Tqar·, Khmaike+ “Loved”
I have observed that these prefixes are quite often used with family and close friends. Some people may say that this makes this love not as voluntary as the beloved prefixes are. The argument is that one may use the loved prefixes because one must, and not necessarily to indicate one’s current feelings or stance unto one’s family or friends. Although I have heard these prefixes used in such a way, I do not think that is the prime reason for using these prefixes. And so once hear Ányarqráyìngtexing and khmaê qráyìngtexing for Oh my loved mother and tqarqráyìngtexing and khmaike qráyìngtexing for my loved mother.
Khmaîtlho·, Xhmaitlhújo+, Khmaitlhor·, Xhmaitlhujoke+ “Respected”
These prefixes denote that someone or something has earned a certain amount of honor and is thus respect. So, KhmaîtlhoPátifhar and Xhmaitlhújo Pátifhar for Oh respected Pátifhar and khmaitlhorPátifhar and Xhmaitlhujoke Pátifhar for respected Pátifhar.
Aînoi·, Ainoir·, Kainor+ “Bleßed, Creativë”
These prefixes are often used in benedictions, when referring to the Ancestors, to the Honored Dead, to the Immortals, or just to show that someone or something is filled with inspiration, blessing, and creative energies. AînoiTáto is Oh blessed Táto and AinoirTáto and Kainoir Táto are blessed Táto.
Pétsi·, Petsir· “Honored, Aged”
One of lesser age or status may use these prefixes with reference to oen of either greater age or greater status. Almost all ranking systems and hierarchies in the Dreamtime are partially bsed upon age. The age referenced by these prefixes, does not have to be literal, though. My Mother and the rest of the Stars refer to their Siblings the Lords of Sea and Earth with the petsir- prefix, for even though they are equal of age, the Stars consider themselves too concerned with dancing and light to be concerned with weightier matters. Younger siblings and cousins often refer to their older siblings and cousins with these prefixes, and people of all ages will use these to show respect to an older person. So Karuláta may say PétsiPuîye, oh older Puey and petsirPuîye older Puey because she is the younger sibling, but even my Mother will refer to Grandfather Pátifhar as PétsiPátifhar Oh aged Pátifhar! And PetsirPátifhar aged Pátifhar.
Qlása·, Qlala· “Worshipful, Royal”
These prefixes are used to refer to Nobles and the Royals of the Clan Pwéru as well as to the Stars and Dreamers. And so many times have I heard QlásaKàrijoi for Oh royal Kàrijoi and qlalaKàrijoi, worshipful Kàrijoi.
Jheîsa·, Jheisar· “Friend”
I think that friendship is very important, and so I’m glad that language should have a prefix to emphasise friendship. This can also be used for the rituals of guest-friendship and gift-giving, but also just for having a friend like Jeûr and Fhólus and Khrùkhtii and other folk that I’ve met, nice persons who have never once tried to steal my Puey away from me. I wonder whether there should be a prefix for those conniving maidens who have tried to kiss my Puey. No, probably not. Anyway, so one says JheîsàrJeur for Oh my friend Jeûr and jheisàrJeur for my friend Jeûr.
Xhór·, Óxhai+ Xhola· “Male, Sir”
These are general prefixes used to refer to a male or one of the gamma sex. One may use this for strangers, students, and suppliants, but also just in general conversation. Sometimes I hear it in the sense of Lord or master. And so I’ve heard Xhórtsenajakhtàqta and óxhai jakhtàqtaxing for Oh warrior, sir and xholatsenajakhtàqta for the masterly warrior.
Xhér·, Éxhai+ Xhele· “Female, Madam”
These are the general prefixes to refer to a female or one of the alpha or beta sexes. I’ve heard this used in reference to vestal virgins as well as to maidens and matrons in general. Sometimes I heard it in the sense of Lady or mistress. Thus I have heard xhértsenatheupíya and éxhai theupíyaxing for oh virgin, miss and xheletsenatheupíya for the lady maiden.
I should add these gender prefixes, xhór, óxhai+, xhola-, xhér-, éxhai+ and xhele- are the only pure gender inflections for participles. There are some participles which have inherent gender within them. For instance Khyèqhiir is a dragon which may be male or female, Khyèqhair is a male dragon, and Khyèqhoir is a female dragon. One just has to learn these different forms as lexical items. There are some words which just have no builded in gender. For instance jhpòrke are blow fish, but we have no word for a male blow fish or a female blow fish, one can either just use another particple to describe it, or use one of these prefixes and so say xholajhpòrke male blowfishes and xholejhpòrke female blowfishes. We do have a five-fold distinction in the focus particles for gender, but they carry heavy syntactic duties and so are not purely just gendered in meaning.
Ájhoqha·, Ajhoqhar· “Teacher, Mentor, Priest, Parent, Mother of Father”
These prefixes are used to refer to one who nurtures or mentors one. This is a common prefix with reference to the Immortals and the Father of Paradise, but I have heard it in a variety of circumstances, such as ájhoqhakhmewína oh my mentoring candy pirate and ajhoqharkhmewína for the nurturing sky pirate.
Jónga·, Jongar· “Young”
This prefix is parallel to the Petsir- forms. Such prefix is used to refer to those of lesser age or stature. The Dreamers refer to the Stars thus, and parents and older persons to their children. I wish to inform you, Puey, when you are thinking in the language of beasts, that the prefixes jónga-, jongar- imply no disrespect. Teachers often use this form when addressing their students, and in this case they mirror the ájhoqha- forms. Fhèrkifher and Xhnófho used to refer to Puey as JóngaPuîye oh master Puey and jongarPuîye young Puey until he became the Crown Prince and became QlásaSaiqíren oh royal Cælestial Crown Prince and qlalaSaiqíren the worshipful Cælestial Crown Prince.
Familiar Prefixes
We then have prefixes that refer to the relative gender and familiar relationship. Túngai+ and Kungai+ refer to one of the same sex, and so Fhermáta and Siêthiyal and Karuláta call each other Túngai theupíyaxing oh my Sister maiden and kungai theupíyaxing a maiden just as I am. Conversely we have Taôngai+ and Kaongai+ to refer to one of the opposite sex, and so my Sisters say Taôngai khmewína for oh Pirate, male unlike me and kaongai khmewína the pirate, being of the opposite sex to me. Jhwóna- and Jhwonar- refer to relations through marriage, and already Siêthiyal is of the habit of calling me JhwónayÉfhelìnye oh Éfhelìnye, related to me by marriage and JhwonarÉfhelìnye, Éfhelìnye, who is related unto me. although more often then not she and the rest of the Sweqhàngqu just call me Sister. Fhtánar- and Fhtanar- mean fostered or adopted, and both Fhermáta and Karuláta have been called FhtánaFhermáta and FhtánaKaruláta and also FhtanarFhermáta Fhermáta, fostered into my clan and FhtanarKaruláta Karuláta fostered into my clan, although they themselves are more often just called Sisters or Siblings. Ár-, Tár-, and Khar- mean something like removed by one generation such as when honored Khwofheîlya calls her mother by marriage ÁrTàltiin and TárTàltiin or she may refer to her as ÁrTàltiin and KharTàltiin. The prefix Ár- may be used both in the vocative case and in the other cases.
That is one horrible monster you’re fighting there, Puey.

And so we come to the fun part, the creation of examples to illustrate the usage of these prefixes:

Bleßed Æons, shall I eat Þe Viceroy king’s books?
When the second person pronouns tó, tú, texhing, toxhing, teir, jhein and xhei are used in direct address in the jhùfhra sét sentence, they may take the vocative prefixes aî·, xá, taê, xaô·, tóngai, lwór·, xhnéyemai, ányar·, khmaê, khmaîtlho·, xhmaitlhújo·, aînoi·, pétsi·, qlása·, jheîsa·, xhór·, óxhai, xhér·, éxhai, ájhoqha·, jónga, ár·, as well as tár-. This is especially true of those lrànkhus prefixes which have special honorific meaning. However, and this is the very difficult part of the discussion, Grammarians traditionally have been confused as to whether such a usage is the vocative case used in pronominal supplementation, or the subject experiencer being used with vocative prefixes. Since personal pronouns are a different part of speech to participles, they do not quite overlap in meaning.
Khmír jit khmaê túxing.
You, loved one, love me.
Ás tuînamat tsenayúqeiyàxhmikh aînoitú.
May you, bleßed one, give Þe book to friends ør family.
Ás tuinamatája tsenayúqeiyàxhmikh aînoitú.
May you, bleßed one, give Þe book to strangren.
However, personal pronouns will take the non-vocative prefixes to describe personal pronouns not in the vocative case, and these prefixes are jai-, kongai+, jhao-, xau-, xhneyemaike+, tlhoi-, tqar-, khmaike-, khmaitlhor-, xhmaitlhujoke-, ainoir-, kainoir+, petsir-, qlala-, jheisar-, xhola-, xhele-, ajhoqhar-, jongar-, kungai+, kaongai+, jhwonar-, fhtanar-, ár- and khar-.
Khmír jit khmaike kúxing.
He, loved one, loves me.
Ás tuînamat tsenayúqeiyàxhmikh ainoirkú.
May he, bleßed one, give Þe book to friends ør family.
Ás tuinamatája tsenayúqeiyàxhmikh ainoirkú.
May he, bleßed one, give Þe book to strangren.
The vocative case, as well as the irrealis mood, is also expressed without particiles or inflexions.
Taê Fhrúla’ ojuxújor khrúju keixhrejor!
Fhrúlà’ ojuxújor keixhrejor!
Fhrúla! Fear them!
Non-vocative honorifics are used with all of the other cases. Here are just a few examples:
Í kongai qúràyutakh fhèjheru’ óxhni.
One must go to Þe honored viceroy king.
Ojuxújor xhneyemaike Fhóngòyejikh Puîyus.
Puîyus fears Þe beloved Æons.
Újaroâkhwen khmaike qráyiingtàyejikh ki’ Éfhelìnye.
Éfhelinye always thinks about Þe mother she loves.
Khníjur khmaitlhujoke qir poe qráyìngte’ úje’ óxhnixuthi
Few men desire to sing in Þe presence of my respected mother.
Í qir xhloâ kainoir Fhóngo xhroe púxing euyi.
With joy I go towards Þe bleßed Æons.
Túngai wthá!
Oh person of the same sex as I!
Taôngai xú!
Oh person of the opposite sex as I!
The túngai+, kungai+, taôngai+, kaongai+ prefixes are fun ways to change the reference, just so long as one knows the sex of the speaker or writer or reference.
Jaê kungai xhnenòyejikh Puîyus.
Puîyus sees a male friend.
Jaê kaongai xhnenòyejikh Puîyus.
Puîyus sees a female friend.
Jaê kungai xhnenòyejikh theupíya.
Þe maidens see male friends.
Jaê kaongai xhnenòyejikh qlén.
Þe beautiful woman sees a male friend.
Puey, one may consider these lexical items which refer to siblings or coisons and whether or not they are of the same sex as the speaker, writer, or referent.:
Aliîmaxha, alimáxhim my/our cousin of thilke sex
Alìmaxha my/our cousin of thilke sex
Alimaxhàrpa your cousin of thilke sex
Alimaxhoîngta his/hir/thair cousin of thilke sex
Khén my/our sibling of thilke sex
Khenàrtha your sibling of thilke sex
Khenoîngpa his/hir/thair sibling of thilke sex
Òrakhen my/our sibling of Þe opposite sex
Orakhenàrtha your sibling of Þe opposite sex
Orakhenoîngpa his/hir/thair sibling of Þe opposite sex
Thúneqe, thùneqim my/our cousin of Þe opposite sex
Thúng my/our cousin of Þe opposite sex
Thungaîngqa his/hir/thair cousin of Þe opposite sex
Thungèrja your cousin of Þe opposite sex
Xhéng, xhèngim my/our sibling of thilke sex
Xhthákh, xhthàkhim my/our sibling of Þe opposite sex
Xhthakhèrpa your sibling of Þe opposite sex
Xhthakhoîngta his/hir/thair sibling of Þe opposite sex
I find it interesting that Babel has different words for Brother and Sister and Sibling as well as Sibling of the same sex and Sibling of the opposite sex as well as words for oldest/older/younger/youngest Brother or Sister, but in terms of words for cousins we have a very small vocabulary. We have no word that means a female cousin or a male cousin or older female cousin. The reason for that, I think, is that so many times we simply refer to cousins as Brothers and Sisters anyway and so use that richer field of vocabulary. I am quite accustomed to referring to Ixhúja as alimáxhim or alìmaxha, but I’ve noticed that I’ve started to call her Sister more often than not.
That is one disgusting Monster. No matter how many faces you bite off of it, the splattering tendril goo just reveal another face inside. How horrible.
Please note, my beloved, that some species that are ángaxa, that have three sexes, such as the Qhíng and Kháfha and Qlùfhem Aûm and Thùlwu Aûm use these inflexions and lexical items meaning opposite sex in a more figurative way. If the speaker is a gamma or gimel male, then the opposite sex may be considered either alpha/aleph female or beta/beth female. Conversely if the speaker is either alpha/aleph female or beta/beth female, the opposite is considered gamma or gimel male. This is important to keep in mind and hearing or reading prefixes such as Xhór-, Óxhai+, Xhér- and Xhér-, Éxhai+, Xhele, that is gamma and gimel is considered male while alpha/aleph/beta/beth are considered female. Thus it is that our peiratical uncle Xherìngport Xhnófho would address his cousin Khmaiqràfhta as túngai Khmaiqràfhta, but he would address Wthí Qhòrem and Jèrikes as taôngai Wthí Qhòrem and taôngai Jèrikies,, and may refer unto them as kaongai Wthí Qhòrem and kaongai Jèrikies.
And now we come to the prefixes jhwóna-, jhwonar- related by marriage and fhtána-, fhtanar- fostered, adopted
Jhwónaqráyiîngta!
On someone’s Mother by marriage!
Jhwónaqráyìngte!
Oh mine own Mother by marriage!
Fhtánaqráyiîngta!
Oh someone’s foster Mother!
Fhtánaqráyìngte!
Oh mine own foster Mother!
Xhùxurl jhwonarqráyiingtàyejikh Puîyus.
Puiyus honors his Mother·in·law.
Xhùxurl fhtanarqráyiingtàyejikh Puîyus.
Puiyus honors his foster Mother.
There are a few supletive participle lexical entries that can take the place of jhwóna-, jhwonar- and fhtána-, fhtanar-
Apanantúwa father of Þe bride, father in law
Atinantúwa mother of Þe bride, mother in law
Jhpaîfhes husband’s brethren, brethren·in·law
Jhpáxho kinsmen by marriage
Qèngilo, qengìlolo tho who foster (somewhom/somewhat)
Qlènte, qleqlènte my/our adopted son
Qlentìrpe your adopted son
Qlèntoing his/hir/thair adopted son
Saîyan my/our son, adopted (royal) son; heir
Saiyanèrtha your son, adopted (royal) son; heir
Saiyanoînga his/hir/thair son, adopted (royal) son; heir
Sàkhta my/our daughter, adopted (royal) daughter
Sakhtàrja your daughter, adopted (royal) daughter
Sakhtoînga his/hir/thair daughter, adopted (royal) daughter
Jhwóna·, Jhwonar· “related by marriage”
Jhwóna-, jhwonar- are the prefixes that mean related by marriage and they hae a wider meaning than what you have told me the terms in law mean in the language of beasts. For instance, the Jaràqtun War Clans of Tásel and Khatelèstan and Sweqhàngqu have been for the last few tens of thousands of ages very close allies. Every few generations the Clans will marry into each other, the arrangement for betrothal and marriage sometimes being drawn up before the children were even born. It is not uncommon for members of these Clans to address each other with jhwóna-, jhwonar- even if the last marriage among the families has not happened in many generations.
It is not unusual to see your writing unto one of your Sisters and using the word:
Jhwónasáma!
My foster Sister by alliances of marriage
And in term they address you as:
Jhwónàkhnafha!
My foster Brother by alliances of marriage
Although ‘twould be just as usual for you all to address each other as:
Taê sáma!
My Sister!
Taê khnàfha!
My Brother
But that can be a little difficult to translate into the language of beasts. Although I do like the sound of jhwonarwthuyèfhaxing, my youngest sister by marriage as a term for Karuláta. It just has a fun sound unto it. In the examples above I used sán, sáma for my our our sister and khnàfha for my or our brother.
And finally we come to the prefixes that separate us by a generation, ár-, tár and khar-.
Árqráyìngte! Tárqráyìngte!
Grandmother!
Tárfhenga!
Grandchild.
This is builded up from fhèna, fhènga, my or our child.
Árpápo Pátifhar!
Grandfather Pátifhar!
Great-Grandfather Pátifhar!
There are just a few lexical items that we have to refer to family relations a generation above parents or below the children, but not too many. The great bulk of our family words refer to Mother, Father, Son, Daughter, and Sibling. But these are the words that we have:
Àmiil my/our granddaughter
Árnan my/our great·grandmother, great-grandfather
Jhkhefhòrfhta my/our grandson, nephew, male descendant
Jhkhèfhtiir my/our granddaughter, neice, female descendant
Jhpemekhwàpuni, jhpemekhwàpunil my/our grandchild
Khmekhoapúna my/our grandson

Tèta, tèteim my/our grandmother
Tètii my/our granny
Tlhára my/our granddaughter
Tlharayàrja your granddaughter
Tlharayoîngta his/hir/thair granddaughter
Tlhàrthos my/our grandfather
Tlharthosaîngpa his/hir/thair grandfather
Tlharthosàrpa your grandfather
Ùneng, ùneing my/our great·grandson, great-granddaughter
Unengaîngpa his/hir/thair great·grandson, great-granddaughter
Unengèrsya your great·grandson, great-granddaughter
Wthó my/our grandson
If one needs to talk about a generation above árnan, one’s great-grandparent, than one uses the appropriate prefixes, and so one can say kharárnan for my great-great-grandparents and kharkharárnan for my great-great-great-grandparents and one can become even more elaborate and say xholakharkharkharárnaning for my great-great-great–great-grandfather, a word builded up of xhola-khar-khar-khar-árnan-ing. Árnan is interesting because it has an implied possessor of my or our, so if one wished to refer to someone else’s great-grandparent one could say khleinayárnaning for thy great-grandparent. Isn’t it fun to say xholakharkharkharkhleinayárnaning for thy great-great-great-great-great-grandfather? Now, youngest lexical item we have would be of the group of ùneng, ùneing my or our great-grandchild, and in the same way one can say khàruneng for our great-great-grandchildren and khàruneing for our great-great-grandchild and even xholakharkharkhàruneing for my great-great-great-great-grandson. Isn’t language just brilliant, the way we can builded up new words for simplier ones? Puey, how many children do you think we’ll have? How many grandchildren will we be blessed to live to see? I hope we live long enough to see our first great-great-grandchildren, but even though my blood may not quite be mortal, I know I will not be able to live long enough for our first xholakharkharkhàruneing.
Sometimes, my beloved, ár-, tár-, and khar- can be used with particles which do not denote family relations. This can be considered rather cozy or intimate. At first I was content to think that the forms of ár-, when not affixed to particiles or family relations, should have no connotation of gender, but I’ve considered for a time, and I think that they really have some slight connotation of masculinity unto them. I am not entirely sure of it, but I think in the tounges of beasts that I would best translate them as father or grandfather. I am not entirely sure whether my cousin Ixhúja would approve of it, but I must concede to the poetic forms that we have inherited, and also to the frames of language that you have.
TárJaràqtu!
Oh Father, Jaràqtu!
Wtsát khàrqiel.
Þe father of Þe hills is green.
Qrauyelónge’ ÁrPátifhar.
Grandfather Pátifhar teaches.
The level two prefixes are often used with personal names. When one speaks t one or one’s own social status or age, one may use personal names without these honorifics. However, when one speaks to one older or of higher social statues, or just to be polite when one talks about someone older or of higher social statues, one uses such honorifiξ. Usually, though, after one has used a couple of honorifics on a term, as that term is repeated the honorifics can be dropped. At a young age all children are taught never to refer to their parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, or older relations by first name alone but to use honorifics, but this is all a manner of learning how to speak in social context.
Hence, my beloved, when you will learn to speak you will say:
JaiyÍngìkhmar
Honored Íngìkhmar.
Khmaike Khwofheîlya.
Loved Khwofheîlya.
But honored Íngìkhmar and loved Khwofheîlya as well as their friends and age mates may just refer to you as Puîyus or Puîyos or jóngaPuîyos, our master Puîyos.
One may refer unto my Father the Setting Sun as QlalaKàrijoi Royal Kàrijoi and my Mother as QlalaKhnoqwísi Worshipful Khnoqwísi, and unto Grandfather Pátifhar as AjhoqharThiêfhilos, Mentoring Thiêfhilos.
However, even a Child may refer to some adults with some endearments or nicknames without using honorifiξ. When your father Íngìkhmar was a child he hight Grandfather Thiêfhilos Pátifhar, quite a dear pet name, and henceforth any child may call him Pátifhar without having to use an honorific, since the name is already considered intimate. But how is one supposed to interpret ours the last generation, the Children of the Land who call him ÁrPátifhar and ÁjhoqhaPátifhar? Dear and grandfatherly Pátifhar and Mentoring and dear Pátifhar come close to the meaning, I think. So it seems that no matter how rigid the honorifics of of our language may be, there are many ways to keep language small and intimate and yet grand at the same time.
In addition to the honorific prefixes there are a great many participles which almost function like honorifics in the sense that they have a meaning which certainly involves honor in it. For instance xhàqla means obligations and those who are honored and harmonious while pyàsyes, pyàsyesim means those who are mandatory, are honored and harmonious, while xhtheû means elegance, refinement, those who are elegant, refined. As you can see they all have a meaning a bit brouder than just honored. This is a the case as you will see, affixes tend to have a very small general meaning while the participles tend to have broader and multiformed meanings.
There are, however, at least four participles which I think come very close to being particles, and they are: Xúm and Pwó and Pyí and Xhnèyong and they mean those who are honored, honorable, revered, hieratick, elegant, weorÞfull, and kabtum.
Jaeyájhei Qlùfhim Aûmejikh xúm kae túxing?
Do you see Þe revered Qlùfhim Aûm?
XaôQírenat!
Tóngai Qírenat!
Oh honored Emperor!

[several large smudges, and dripping green goo down the side of the page. Princess Éfhelìnye’s writing begins on the back of another leaf]
I just stay here. The battle is becoming more intense. Puey has set me up high in the rafters as the monsters come pouring out of the void. Puey and Grandfather Pátifhar are fighting back to back. It is rather exciting and I’ve been sketching some of the images so that I may have some inspiration when I return unto the epic that I’m writing. But for now my thoughts return back unto honorifics and how they are used in a clause or sentence. Honorifics may be affixed unto any of the seven cases. Quite often one hears them affixed unto the predicate experiencer in a clause, and this tends to emphasize the action or state of the pàsqot sentence.

So there you can see there is a slight difference in meaning between the honorifics upon the subject and the honorific upon the predicate. Honorifics are often used with the focus suffixes -axhwa, and +xhmoe and -anwa/enwe/inwi/ojhwo/ujhwu. When this is done sometimes the construction is best translated as an independent clause, or the honorics can be translated as a super-honoric such as thrice honored or seven-fold honored or something of the ilk.

Puey, my love, you may notice that in the examples above the translations into the language of beasts has been in what I believe to be the passive voice, but the original Babel was still in the active voice. For instance I glossed Khniêr jaipúxhrejoraxhwa stélaring, as I am honored to be kißed by Þe princess, and the reason I did so is because jaipúxhrejoraxhwa honored me indeed is the object of the sentence, and I needed to emphasis the honorific prefix jai- for you. In a similar fashion the sentence Khniêr khmaike púxhrejor xhmoe stélaring, I have translated as, I, loved as I am, am kißed by Þe princess, but the original sentence is not in the passive voice. One could say
Xhnípe’ ur khniêrejikh qoe pú stélaring.
I am kissed by the princess.
Xhnípe’ ur khniêrejikh qoe jaipúyaxhwa stélaring.
I am honored to be kissed by some princess or other.
You can see that I have emphasized the passive voice by demoting princess in the translation to princess or other. One could say:
Xhnípe’ ur khniêrejikh qoe khmaike pú xhmoe stélaring.
I, loved as I am, am kissed by some princess in general.

I just love the ergative. Isn’t it marvelous that we have a case which means that one goes out to do and accomplish something? It’s so much fun, plus, even though the case is at the bottom of the hierarchy, it does remind me of you so much, for you are strong and forceful and besplatter monsters all about, with their tendrils and goo dripping down, and I’m sure once you’ve cleared the deck of these nasties you’ll find me up here in the rafts and sweep me up into your arms and kiss me. If such isn’t your intention, of course, then by the time you’ve read this I’m sure I shall have forced you to kiss me a few times. Now, onto the very last case.

How much longer is this battle going to last? I’m going to start practice puckering up my lips. I hope this ends soon, I think after all this complex and beautiful grammar that I’m creating for you that I deserve a big and wonderous kiss.
In conclusion I’m just going to mention that when honorifics are used with a focus particle that they also just have the connotation of being a super-honorific, of which Qtheûnte hath a durth. I do not think that the language of beasts, which you know so well, so easily translates this, but I can offer some simple suggestions. For instance, in our culture the prime numbers three, seven, and eleven have special significance, so sometimes I shall translate an honorific with the focus like in these examples.
