Search for a word in Low Draconic or its English meaning to reveal its ancestry. Branches outward showing derivations, compounds, and sister-words.
Low Draconic permits three styles of joining when one word qualifies another. The choice is left to the speaker — none is preferred over the others.
Suffixes and prefixes attach to existing roots to derive new meanings. Below, each example shows root + affix → derived word.
The suffix Kur marks the past tense of a verb, mirroring English -en. Future tense fronts the auxiliary Fen (will) before the verb.
K-drop rule: when the root ends in k, the suffix's leading k is absorbed — so Piraak + Kur → Piraakur, not *Piraakkur. This is attested in the lexicon's own past forms.
The plural suffix is simply S, attached directly to the noun.
Attested in Ar'kaan: "hihan gors" (your eyes), "hihan viings" (your wings). Behaviour for noun stems already ending in s is not formalised in the draft.
Zos (-er, more) and Zok (-est, most) attach to adjectives.
