About If-Thrikk
Conlang I'm working on for a friend/friend-of-a-friend's world. Spoken on a mystical island by the three races that live there: the Na'gaa, the Mherlocks, and the A'vii. Russian and Spanish influences, but not so many as to make it obviously Russian and Spanish inspired. I'll see what I can do with the limited amount I know so far!
Current features:
Apostrophes and hyphens with purpose!
A single diacritic!
So many ejectives!
Copula dropping!
Partial reduplication!
Pronoun dropping!
Please note that the phonology isn't entirely accurate. It's still a WIP because I'm having to switch everything around, but the consonants are good for the most part. Don't trust the vowels.
