A constructed language by David Stewart-Candy.

Talhata is unique in that word order indicates verbal tense. There are only two tense conjugations used: present-past and future-conditional. Shifting the position of the predicate in the sentence results in differentiating between the present and past tense, and the future and conditional tense. For example, I see you in Talhata is "vusaat sii" while I saw you is "sii vusaat".
