Fundamental Types
the set of words which are semantically connected
In Astralica,
Grammatical words are categorized into different topics,
vocabularies in the same topic or category should look alike or related.
​
These "topics" are called "Fundamental Types".
Each Fundamental Type has it's own symbol.
Afterwards, each Fundamental Type is going to have its own chapter
Here are the 6 Fundamental Types:
just like most of the other normal languages, even math, have to start with something bizarre (like out of nowhere) so the name of the fundamental types will arbitral and heavily inspired by English, Japanese, and Chinese.
Kaxi - Space
The symbol is derived from the 3 perpendicular axes in a euclidian environment.
If you are familiar with Unity or Blender or 3D modeling software, you usually see that as a gizmo.
​
This symbol can represent "position" or "direction".
Pronounciation Inspiration
from "koŋ" from Chinese and "space" from English,
after concatenation of the underlined part, we have "Kace"
taking this result and "Japanize beaming" it
we can have "Kaisu", "Japanize beaming" it again we have "Kaxi"
Taxi - Time
The symbol is derived from the shape of an hourglass.
And obvious enough this symbol represents "time".
Pronunciation Inspiration
from "time" from English, "shi" from Chinese,
by concatinating the underlined part, we have "Taxë",
"Japanize beaming" it, we can have "Taxi"
Krosno - Object
The symbol is derived from the shape of a box or a package.​
Mainly take cares some of the properties that an object can have, the color, size, etc.
Pronounciation Inspiration
the name of this fundamental type is derived from "Kosra" and "no".
"Kosra" will be discussed in the next section.
"no" is the number 0.
​
In the past, this fundamental type is called "Kosrano", but after time, the name got compressed and slightly rearranged to "Krosno".
​
"Kosrano" mainly has the meaning of "zero Kosra", or "no Kosra" or "an entity that has no Kosra", which is basically a normal object.
Kosra
Kosra is a unique concept which other languages does not have, which means it cannot be directly translated into any other words in English, Japanese or Chinese, instead if can be a combination of a few concepts that we are used to.
​
Kosra has the meaning of
"Mind", "Concept", "Information", "Intelligence", "Knowledge", "Passion", "Idea".
​
The symbol is derived from "putting/retrieving an idea into a flask"
Krosni - Living Entity
The symbol is derived from us, "humans".​
Krosni is the opposite of Krosno, "entity with Kosra"
Mainly take cares some of the properties that an living being can have, the pronouns, body parts, etc.
Pronounciation Inspiration
the name of this fundamental type is derived from "Kosra" and "ni".
where "ni" is the number 1.
​
In the past, this fundamental type is called "Kosrani", but after time, the name got compressed and slightly rearranged to "Krosni".
​
"Kosrani" mainly has the meaning of "has Kosra" or "an entity that has Kosra", which is basically a living being.
Sæyanæ - Event
The symbol is derived from a growing sapling,
which has the meaning of "process​" or "an event"

Pronounciation Inspiration
​
from the English word "sæpling",
from the Chinese word "miau",
from the Japanese word "nægi"
Pronunciation Cropping
Sometimes the fundamental types will be cropped in order to make some of the words shorter.
These pronunciation will be used when a fundamental type is used with a / a group of modification character(s)
Kaxi
Taxi
KosraNo
Kosra
KosraNi
Sæyanæ
Kosrano → Krosno
Kosrani → Krosni
KrosNo
KrosNi
Krosno → Kro
Krosni → Kri
Kosra → Kra

Kaxi → Ka
Taxi → Ta
Sæyanæ → Sæ
Kro → Kuro
Kra → Kura
Kri → Kuri

Kuro → Kou
Kura → Koa
Kuri → Koi

Modification Characters
These fundamental symbols are radicals of some of the grammatical words that we will tackle in future chapters, but just these symbols themselves are not enough.
​
In this case, a / a few Modification Character(s) is/are required to attach more information onto the word.
​
When a group of modification characters are used with a radical, the whole pronunciation of the word should be "Radical - Modification0 - Modification1 - ... - ModificationN".
​
Sometimes, a modification character alone with it's radical can be interpreted in a meaningful way, and thus can be pronounced as "Radical - self".
Charracteristic Segment pronounciation
In the chapters, when specifying how is a modification character should be pronounced, the radical pronunciation will be white and the self pronunciation will be yellow.
