[conlang_learners] Length of time to learn

I have no interest in learning an auxlang, and prefer a fairly complex
artlang (or engelang, though I think no engelangs have been proposed).

I prefer IPA to fauxnetics, and I prefer more exotic-sounding, phonetically
and phonologically interesting languages (Klingon, Teonaht, Ithkuil, and
things like that). However, since we will primarily be writing, rather than
speaking, the phonology is less important than an interesting grammar (the
less eurocentric the better), and I agree with Kate that I'd prefer
something easier to type.
