About Breybrah
breybrah is a general language for which to sprout other languages from. The language is heavily root based and every root has been thought out with phonic symbolism and relation in mind. The phonology was planned out to include a sound from almost every category allowing for quick and easy phonology replacement.
Sample of Breybrah[view] nonu wikelu nádu nivadoi reránu zwe viwilu rerávánuwi zwe wedilu.
Now all the earth continued to be of one language and of one vocabulary. As they travelled eastward, they discovered a valley plain in the land of Shinar, and they began dwelling there. Then they said to one another: "Come! Let us make bricks and bake them with fire." So they used bricks instead of stone, and bitumen as mortar. They now said: "Come! Let us build a city for ourselves and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a celebrated name for ourselves, so that we will not be scattered over the entire face of the earth." / / Then Yahweh went down to see the city and the tower that the sons of men had built. Yahweh then said: "Look! They are one people with one language, and this is what they have started to do. Now there is nothing that they may have in mind to do that will be impossible for them. Come! Let us go down there and confuse their language in order that they may not understand one another's language." So Yahweh scattered them from there over the entire face of the earth, and they gradually left off building the city. That is why it was named Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth, and Yahweh scattered them from there over the entire face of the earth.[view all texts]
