I am working on creating a new language simply because I love language. In some ways I think English is lacking. I have learned Spanish, 2 years of highschool anyway. I love that language, still I am working on a new language for the fun of it. I would love to make it into a complete language, but I have strong doubts of being able to do that in my lifetime working alone. I have a website I've created so that others can learn the language and contribute. I'm learning American Sign Language and Hebrew now, which will probably also influence the language evenutally. The website I have is http://esimorosia.ulmb.com. Is anyone interested in helping in any way? I could use techincal help, like HTML stuff, since I only know how to use Microsoft FrontPage, not write HTML. It's not just language contribution, though I do need lots of that as well.

It sounds mostly like Spanish as far as accent. It is fairly easy to pronounce. When I say that American Sign Language will probably influence this language, I mean the grammar because, despite misconceptions, American Sign Language does not share English grammar. Many words come from flipping English and Spanish words backwards and changing spelling to make it pronounceable from there, as well as fixing it for letters that exist in English and Spanish that don't exist in the new language. Perhaps a letter that doesn't exist in English or Spanish may be substituted. There are 2 new letters and several removed, totaling about 20 letters. For a better idea of what the language looks like, see the above web address. The site is up and running currently.

I have a verb conjugation system set. Much of the present grammar is based off of Spanish, due to the fact that I find Spanish to have much more logical grammar than English.
