About Sarbera
Sarbera is the language spoken by the Sarberese people. One of its major defining features is its lack of a third person. Sarbera makes up for this by adding a hypothetical person marker, masculine, feminine and neuter forms of second person and the gâm, also known as the rhetorical particle, used to refer to those close by in a semi-question manner.
