 I will be changing the name when I come up with more words.


Sounds

 I am using the IPA for now. I'll probably add examples later for those who don't know it.

Vowels
a-ɑː
i-iː
e-eɪ
o-oʊ
u-uː

Diphthongs do not work due to how the script works.

Consonants
b-/b/
d-/d/
f-/f/
g-/g/
h-/h/
j-/dʒ/ and Arabic ج I think it's like a French j? (looking for explanation)
k-/k/
kh-/x/
l-/l/
m-/m/
n-/n/
p-/p/
r-/ɾ/
s-/s/ slight /ʃ/ before i
sh-/ʃ/
t-/t/
ts-cats
v-/v/
w-/w/
y-/j/
z-
ch-Arabic خ kind of like X only more pronounced
c-/tʃ/


Writing

 Here are some of my ideas for scripts.

Grammar

 I have very little on this right now. I am kind of stuck because I don't know everything I could possibly use, yet.

I'm pretty sure it's is SVO.
Nouns have no gender, but they usually end in either a or i and adjectives agree with nouns and follow their modified word.

Working on:
verbs
possible cases
adverbs
pronouns
prepositions

Culture

 Most of the culture will start to show itself when I start writing my books. All I can say for now is that the world it's spoken in is a very magical place with wizards, mages, phoenixes, hydras, sphinxes, faeries, unicorns, etc. At least two other languages are spoken there.

I’ve thought of the culture and a lot of the grammar,but there’s too much going on right now to post it.I’ll just wait until I know more Japanese since the grammar is so much like it. (now)

Sorry, but I've been on a hiatus on this and a few other things because I've been distracted a lot lately. I'll update later. (hopefully.)
