Bastet's Proverbs

What you hear in the wind might make you healthy
What you hear in the stream might feed you
What you listen to through (by means of) a keyhole could sicken your soul
Give praise, give praise to Bastet's ears!

What you see in the forest might feed your family
What you see under your bed might scare your children (lit. The thing that you
see and is under your bed....)
What you see through your neighbor's little window could make your wife grow
cold
Give praise, give praise to Bastet's vision!

Basic Word Order: SOV, then any postpositional phrases

Relative Clauses: when the noun to be used in the relative clause is the subject
of the main clause, the relative clause somes directly after that noun. The verb
in the relative clause is changed to show it is part of a r.c., here by changing
the first vowel from "a" to "au," and "u" to "ua."

Eloshtan primarily uses postpositions, which must agree with the person and
number of the noun before them. posession: here is the order used:

    possessor "te" possessed

The word "te" must agree with the possessor in person and number. Because of
this, the possessor doesn't have to be mentioned if it is just a pronoun.

After a verb with a stated direct or indirect object, the (separate) word "uu,"
or "aa," respectively, must be placed. These also must agree in person and
number with the object they are referring to. If the noun is not actually
mentioned in the clause, then an ending may be placed on the verb instead. (This
is like "I see the house" vs. "I see it." In Eloshtan, you would add "uu" in the
first sentence, but not in the second, where the "it" itelf would be added onto
the verb.)

Person and number are handed out like so: 1st and 2nd are the same as in every
language. The first object in a sentence (that isn't you or me) is considered
3rd person. The next is 4th, and so on through 6th.
