Interesting. I never knew Rubaga was a Romance language. Did you ever post
something about its grammar? Or do you have a link of some kind?
All I remember of it, is that it has nine different ways of pronouncing /g/,
providing the language with a fair degree of Maggelity. Quite an achievement, I
admit.
Wenedyk, on the other hand, has a very low degree of Maggelity, and so do my
other languages. I usually tend to create an orthography that fits
pronunciation (or the other way 'round, perhaps). Slavic influence, I guess...
