El’ Lilim, shortened to Elilim, is the original language spoken by Enlil, God and Creator. When Enlil created the Universe, he did so by the commands of his voice, and the Lokos (animated logic) responded to Elilim. To speak Elilim allows the speaker to take literal control of a part of Creation. The closer one’s pronunciation and the correct choice of words and syntax, the more powerful the effect can be. Enlil taught Elilim to a very high degree to the Vigilis, and Vigil Biskiel taught it to the first Humans who became known as Eis Sofos (Wielders of Thoughts). However, the language has since been lost to humanity.
Modern Elilim and the daemonic White Elilim are “reconstructed languages”. Eis Sofos are linguists, and it is part of their job to investigate the origins of Elilim and come closer to the original pronunciation, syntax, grammar and meaning of the words. No Eis Sofos or Daemon alive today speaks El’ Lilim to any degree similar to the Vigilis or Enlil.

Evolutions: adjectives are appended before the object:

laj kawa laikawa small fire (flame)
In case of vowel to vowel, a glottal stop is added:
re elimi re’elimi big man
In the case of consonant to consonant, the consonant is retained:
Stanos Daimon: Stanostaimon (Great Demon)
Both the j and the diphthong ai are treated as consonants:
laj elimee: Lajelimee small woman (girl)

Elilim has postpositions coming after the verb. The postposition is appended behind the verb itself and follows Adjective rules for pronunciation.

Grammar is a highly contentious topic among Elilim scholars. Elilim does not seem to have verb conjugation. This makes the language very hard to comprehend for us at times, for instance, when discerning whether something happened in the past, present or future. Gender cases are only assigned to male and female beings; all other nouns are genderless. There are different STATES or MODES of BEING in Elilim which can help.
To be / To become / To do,
You place i, aum or te behind a word to indicate what is happening:
i ─ being
aum ─ becoming
te ─ doing
Lucian stanostaimon i ─ Lucian is being a Great Demon
Elim daimon aum ─ The person is becoming a Demon
Elim olon te thor ─ The person is throwing water
Elilim does not have a past tense nor any method to indicate something happened in the past or has finished happening. It is likely that to God, this concept is redundant.
Aum + te ─ to become / to create,
Kawa aum te ─ Creating fire (light a fire)
The te indicator is not strictly necessary to indicate an action and can sometimes be omitted if it does not change the meaning of the sentence. White Elilim often omits te by default, or contracts te with the noun, effectively verbing the noun:
Um Tirgis ─ Create lighting (Illuminating (v.))
If the sentence does change its meaning by omitting te, different results may come into effect. Compare:,
Sa lajelimee tare ─ I see the girl
Sa lajelimee te tare ─ I am looking at the girl
The second case indicates an intentional act. You are intentionally looking at the girl to see what she is doing; she is under your observation.
Commands reverse S.O.V. to S.V.O.,
You reverse the Object and the Verb to make a sentence commanding. Many common Elilim spells are commands:
Kawa aum te ─ Creating Fire (to light a fire)
Aum te kawa ─ Create Fire (to command the Lokos to create fire)
Add ko to turn a statement into a question,
Lucian stanostaimon i ko? ─ Is Lucian a Great Demon?
Most likely, the ko suffix was added later by the Vigilis to aid in communicating with each other. For there to be questions in the language of the All-Knowing Enlil is absurd.
No split clauses,
You cannot split clauses through a sentence. You need to include the subject in most cases for every clause, object or verb.
Incorrect: Sa stanostaimon i za lajelimee te tare
Correct: Sa stanostaimon i za sa lajelimee te tare
“I am a great demon and I’m observing the girl”

Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell
to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!

Any suggestions or hints? Cheers!
