The Original Idea of Smil(y)ian Is and Has Been Making A Consonant-Vowel Conlang (Ergo Guaranteeing [The Spell Check Says That's A Word, But It Looks Kindof Sus [But The Spellcheck Doesn't Recognize"Kindof" and "Sus"]] Pronounceability (It Was The First Conlang That I Ever Made (It Was In Elementary School During Free Time) That Was Easily Pronounceable (Besides Ununoctian (See The History Article For All The History)).

Anyways, The Gist Thingy Is Just Rearranging The Letters in English Words To Be In CV Consonants. In Modern Smilian, All Words Begin With A Consonant, and End With A Vowel (This Wasn't The Case Until Early Middle Smilian).
Example A1: "Needed" → "Nedede" (nedede).

The Second "Level" of Smilian is Adding Vowels (Or Consonants) Where Needed, Using A Chart.
Example B1: "Table" → "Tabel" → "Tabélo" (tabélo).
Example B2: "About" → "Batou" → "Batôþu" (batôþu).

This Leads To The Third "Level" of Smilian: The Stress. The Primary Stress Goes on The Last Original Vowel in The Word, As Seen In Examples B1 and B2. For More Information, See The Article About Intonation/Stress.

The Fourth And Final "Level" of Smilian Is Changing The Letters To Match The Pronunciation Closely.
Example C-Sharp-1: "English" → "Negilsh" → "Negílosoihi" → "Nezílosùði" (nezílosùði); Note: The Chart Used Already Shows The Letters In Their Smilian Form, And Some Letters That Are In Both Are Not Correspondances, Like H in English (ð in Smilian) and H in Smilian (W in English).
