I wasn't very creative with my tone languages and used a high tone on the
stressed syllable in Sturnan and Runda. (Both have two tones only.) I may
be more inventive with Hansu, but I won't be doing more than two tones
with it in any case.
As time goes on, I learn a little bit more, and with every new aspect I
can change, I want to make a slightly more complex language. It's a bear
for me to write in Hansu, it being ergative and having thirteen cases,
but I like the language.
