About Esakyi
(note: these are my goals for the language)
Esakyi is a language I created with the intent to express emotion as specifically as possible. It can take usage of metaphors and similes to the extreme, and can easily translate phrases from any language. Because of this, Esakyi is pretty polysynthetic, and very derivational. Nearly all of Esakyis' root words are a single syllable. Esakyi also has SOV word order, and is primarily head initial.

THIS PASSION BURNS PURPLE, IT COMPELS ME TO KEEP LIVING, FOR THE FELLOW SOFT GLOWS IN THIS BLACK SEA, AND TO SPITE THE MANMADE FATE THAT DEEMS IT SO. I AM A BLAZE.[view all texts]
