"Kueh a Khaettha" (Voice of Ketta) is the language and dialects typically spoken as a mother tongue by the ethnic Kettan population. Sentences are constructed in the order of SUBJECT, OBJECT, VERB with particles used to connect meanings and express emotions.
When speaking, or hearing Kettan it is important to note that it is NOT polite to speak it to someone you have just met or to someone you probably won't get to know like a stranger, cashier, or someone who is in a temporary position at your workplace. In these events Kettan sign language is encouraged.
However, this is about the spoken word and so this will be discussed later with diagrams.
Here are some examples of everyday speech to give you an idea of spoken Kettan sentence structure:
Bandarh beh kigeu ia dannha.
