About Rogan
Rogan is an isolating language with a lot of different words for their English equivalents. However, they tend to follow rules, some of which question if it is isolating or analytic. (Natives consider them different words despite.) It has a large amount of phonemes, 3 tenses, definity, 4 types of plural, and 7 types of possession. It has no genders. Most of its letters are Latin letters or modifications of them. (some exceptions are the /ɡ/ and /ɣ/ sounds.) An interesting feature is the lack of nominative and genitive pronouns for I and you.
