Klenian: A Verbless Language

Klenian, or Klen, is an experimental conlang created by Siliusotemure Major. The main concept of Klenian is that it has no verbs. Instead, it employs relationals, which function as particles that specify the relationship between noun phrases. These relationals have various uses and meanings, making them more versatile and less verb-like. Despite the lack of verbs, Klenian is a fully developed language with an elaborate script and grammar. The language is well-documented on a website, complete with interlinear texts, a searchable dictionary, and other resources. Klenian offers an intriguing concept for language creation enthusiasts interested in exploring alternative linguistic structures.
