About Kiwoko
Kiwoko language has a very fixed syllable structure,vowel harmony, and heavy use of agglutination. the word order is not fixed and can be used to indicate tense rather than using verb conjugation. I'm working on a logography for the language and there is also a syllabary. And before anyone says "wait this is just Japanese with vowel harmony", nouns work very differently and there isn't a particle system. In general I think the language will be a more like a full on protolang from which I will start deriving new languages.
