About North Elvish
My first conlang :') I was about 12 when I started it, so naturally it is highly imperfect and far too close to my native language. This is very much a WIP as I am constantly trying to get rid of the Latin influence (as well as trying to eliminate/evolve the words that no longer match my revised orthography/phonology and weed out the words I straight out stole from Tolkien or other languages) in order to actually make it a little more Elvish and unique.
