In Ruhdrelian, since they don't speak more than needed, sentences are generally composed of one word which conveys everything that they want to say. Sometimes this includes multiple meanings.

To say goodbye - they would mean "goodbye my good friend and may you have good fortune until we meet again". They would actually say "Torichbor'enuch" which translates to  "my heart goes with you." This is for someone who is familiar like a friend or family member. To say goodbye to someone that is older or unfamiliar to them, they would say "Kornuich" which translates to "my honor goes before you."

Their writings can be difficult to translate for someone outside of the culture because much of its meaning is implied rather than explicitly stated.

An example of this will be forthcoming as I will translate one of my constellation legends into Ruhdrelian, hopefully by the end of the week.

Granted, I should probably mention that the above information does not apply to Ruhdrelian:)

My favorite constellation name which came from a change of form in order to fit a category is Krózyfái. In this specific language family, o is generally pronounced ah and ai is pronounced eye. The a is generally followed by r, n, or i much like qu always goes together in English. The ar combination produces air and an produces in like captain, so without the accent there's no true a sound. A in this language family does not exist on its own.

AboutI started working on my book in '98 and have been toying with it ever since. I'm now getting serious about writing it, so having a world is important.
