Gambese is a Marquesic (branch of polynesian) language deriving from Proto-Hawaiian. It is spoken mainly on the Gambier islands along with Marquesan and French (the latter has a large influence on its lexicon with most loans taken from French). Gambese is heavily relient on a set word order and specific syntax. (*) Gambese is pseudo-analytical polysynthetic in that it is written as analytical but acts polysynthetic; similar to how French is pseudo-fusional polysynthetic in that it is written as fusional and is percieved by its speakers as fusional, but in reality, acts polysynthetic.
