YOUR LANGUAGE LOOKS GR8 BUT WHERE ARE SYNTAX AND EXAMPLE TEXTS KTHXBAI

More seriously: your verbal morphology looks a bit too regular in that chart. Can all affixes coexist? Are there strange semantic indications with some of them? Is there any cool morphophonology or are you a fellow member of the scrubclub?

I haven't spent enough time putting kinks in, so the verbal morphology is too well-ironed. My plan with this is to make a billion daughterlangs with much cooler morphophonology. But I should mess around with this a little in the meantime to make it natlangier...

I love how painfully random the morphemes and glosses look; just from reading over the morphology page I feel like I'm staring at some horrible Linear B transcription. I hope this settles down with a nice bronze-age syllabary and that they have many kids together.

Yeahhhh... I guess it looks pretty odd without any examples or fleshing out. But part of that is intended, since it's to be a proto-lang that will end up make nicer, more normal daughterlangs (i guess this dates from around the equivalent of neolithic pre-metallurgy (on a different planet)? so "bronze-age syllabary" could be in the works in a derivation or two!)

quoting kodé, Deacon:

Pssst..., I know you know that, but still - protolangs are natural and irregular, too... :-)
