count me in. the only problem might be vocabulary. maybe we should make a standard list of english words before the relay. each conlanger would translate this list in his language X, then list all these X words and translate them in english. for instance : english-X : wolf : oonga boonga X-english : oonga : forest ; ~ boonga : wolf boonga : dog ; oonga ~ : wolf mathias
