About Chilut
the ultimate conlang of WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING SIB
More specifically, 'tis a daughter lang of Chelurche spiced up with controversial sound changes like intense vowel deletion and metathesis, filling the dictionary with short words and creating lots of minimal pairs (for example: ŝe vs. ṣe, ĉe vs. ĉē, mli vs. mlī)
The only reason it doesn't look like a bootleg South Asian tonal natlang (think Burmese with much more onset consonant clusters) is that I generally try to keep my creations pronounceable for me lol
