Another Blogling

Not a long blog tonight though I do need to type more XD

I have updated and expanded the Modality system of Amazo, two new custom moods that express aspects of English I wanted to include.

First is the Necessative Mood:

This mood which is marked by the particle "ζαν" or "Zan" [ʒɑn] and is used to express the need or necessity of something. This is used when someone wants to desire something but also uses said desire as way to express that they NEED it.

"I desire this thing" with the attached marker it adds a secondary meaning that the desire is more than want and is necessity to the speaker.

Second is the Evidentative Mood:

This mood is marked by the particle "χειζ" or "Heis" [χeɪs] and is used to express the inference of something. Phrases such as "must have" or "may have" fit under this meaning. This can also be used to state that the action is either believed to have happened or is not. Not to be confused with Subjunctive which states that something is the opinion or judgement of someone.

Finally I am considering a few more aspects, this is because I want to have a specific verbal system for Amazo. And with Amazon I want them to have a sort of almost poetic intensive nature of their thoughts.
