Sumerian is a term used to describe a person or object from the ancient kingdom of Sumeria. Sumerian was written in cuneiform. Sumerian is known for its unique syntactic features, which include an object-object-verb-subject word order and the use of the morpheme p before inanimate nouns and non-gendered substantives. It also has a tendency to employ left dislocations, in much the same way that some American Indian languages do.
