Some ordinary endings


  1. The 5 vowels : -A, -E, -I, -O and -U.
    • In fremdo most of the words have an ending that indicates invariably the type of used word, explanations :
      1. A noun will end always to the singular by : -A, -O, -U.
      2. An adjective will end always by : -E.
      3. An adverb (derived) will end always by : -I.
  2. Thanks to that we are not going to need to learn as many words as in other languages, explanations :
    • Take the word "PATRO", the radical is : PATR, now let's add, to this radical, the 5 endings :
      1. patro = parent (neutral noun) ; patra = mother (feminine noun) ; patru = father (male noun) ; patre = parental (adjective) ; patri = parentally (adverb).


The Formation of the words


The words in fremdo are formed from a radical and of an ending. The ending indicates the nature of the word. Thus all the neutral nouns end by -O, the feminine nouns by -A, the male nouns by –U, the adjectives by -E, the adverbs derived by -I. The words can be combined to prefixes or suffixes. Here you are some endings :


word Noun (neutral) Noun (plural) Noun (feminine) Noun (plural) Noun (male) Noun (plural) adjective adverb
ending o oy a ay u uy e i
fremdi kido kidoy kida kiday kidu kiduy fremde fremdi
in English child children girl girls boy boys foreign, Fremdo in Fremdo


  • The y of the plural is a half-consonant, therefore does not modify the place of the tonic accent. Ibidem for the w half-consonant.


Some Words


In this lesson we have still underlined the letter that receives the tonic accent.


anglolo square awto car blue blue bovido calf (neutral) bovo cow (neutral) en in
kay and ile male kido child kidu boy lawde loud muziko music
aw or olaro tools olo instrument, tool olio tool box pikso picture side sat, sedentary
silento silence spide speedy, quick tre very ulo fellow, person vivo life vivu a living being


Some affixes


  • What is an affix ?
  • An affix is an element that adds to a word to modify the sense.
    • When it is stuck before the word, one calls it prefix.
    • When it is stuck after the word, one calls it suffix.
  • The affixes are very used in Fremdo, it is for that that one says about the Fremdo that it is an agglutinating language.
  1. Example of word : (prefix + radical + suffix + ending)
    • neakirable = ne + akir + abl + e , how to decipher this word to translate it ?
      • The ending is e therefore it's an adjective.
      • The suffix is abl it expresses the possibility
      • The prefix is ne it express the negation, therefore in that case the impossibility
      • The radical is akir of acquiring, acquisition, etc..., therefore; who is impossible to acquire
    • neakirable = inaccessible
  • To every next lesson we will learn more.
  1. After the endings -A and -U that transforms the names in feminine and male, we have two suffixes that transform same way the adjectives and the adverbs (that end by -E and -I).
  2. -el-, as the ending -a, gives a feminine sense to the radical.
  3. -il-, as the ending -u, gives a male sense to the radical.
  4. -ol-, adds an "instrumental" sense to the radical.
  5. -ul-, gives a "living being" sense to the radical.
  6. dez- gives a "inverse, opposite" sense to the radical.
  7. diz- gives a "in several directions" sense to the radical.
  8. mis- gives a "not rightly, in error" sense to the radical.


-o neutral patro parent patre parental patri parentally
-el- feminine patra mother patrele maternal patreli maternally
-il- male patru father patrile paternal patrili paternally
kavalu horse kavala mare kavalilu stallion kavalulu centaur
reptare crawling reptulo reptile razare to shave razolo razor
