I appreciate your concern.
I think that I would be more comfortable if I had a better technical grasp of grammar in general. This is my fault alone. I could figure it out if I had more examples. But the bottom line is that I'm not up to speed on my grammar.
IPA is encouraged around here. I never meant to say that IPA shouldn't be included (although it probably came out that way and I apologize). To those who understand it, it's exact and conveys the true sound.
Eventually, someone may produce sound files and that would allow me to mimic what I hear (which I can do well). I just need to learn the IPA if I'm going to go at it.
Yes, I did like the originality of the words. Very nice job on that.
I can't find my heteronym example. It probably had an apostrophe I missed, though, which I found myself doing. I will claim fault on that one, too.
With whatever conlang is chosen, I'll probably try to write a simplified guide to help future people learn it that aren't linguists or who don't have ready access to one :)
The bottom line is that the areas that I don't favor are areas that I need to improve upon to begin with. This is solely my fault and looking back on my post, I should've realized this from the start.
My sincere apologies.
James
