A constructed language by Randal L. Lanning.

Most of it is a priori so far. There are no special letters and the grammar is a balance of simple, regular, agglutinative, and irregular. I'm trying to make it easy to speak and still sound natural. OK, it's probably not unique.

Language sources: German, Klingon, Esperanto, Latin, Greek, English slang, a lot of apriori, and several inside jokes to myself.

SVO order primarily, although it doesn't have to be. Active verbs end in -de. Passive take the root. Nouns are always the root. Plurals are added with -ams unless they follow a number in which case they do not change. Adjectives end in -al. Adverbs in -era.

Melinda R. - I named the language after her and she inspired me to write it. It's a personal language that I doubt anyone else would want to speak but one never knows. If you do, have fun. :)
