About Caelys
Welcome to Caelys. We have no adjectives. Enjoy your stay.
Caelys is the language of the earth-loving, freely sexual Caelians, living in the country of the same name (although officially it's known as the United Kingdom of Caelys and the Gaedhen Islands, but eh).
Some features:
We have no affricates. None. Zip. Nada.
Nor do we have adjectives.
A couple borrowings from
Achiyitqan and 
Riyan
