I'd been working on Classical Quazian morphosyntax for a long while before it became clear that the morphosyntax was neither coherent nor comprehensible, and I could barely wrap my head around the language.

Resultingly, I'm redoing the language's morphosyntax. The phonology is nearly but not completely finalized, but since I'm trying to get the morphosyntax in place first, that's neither here nor there.

A few general principles guide Classical Quazian morphosyntax. These are not universally followed, but they are followed close enough that they provide a good roadmap for the language's structure.

a) Dependents are marked.
b) Heads are not usually marked.
c) Heads come last.

There is one caveat, in which the subject can be considered a head to which the verb is a dependent. Resultingly, a system of mixed alignment exists in which noun case is ergative-aligned, while verbal marking, as well as first- and second-person pronouns, is accusative-aligned. (This system is found in various languages of New Guinea.)

After morning classes, I'll have more to say about CQ morphosyntax, including some real sentences (which are a pain to type on library computers). I wasn't aiming for a truly minimalist system derived from the above guidelines, but I would like to make something that's not a hodgepodge, and that I can write in.
