This is one way I've thought of to "invent" words for
a vocabulary. I made a program that went through a
text file and switched all voiced consonants with their
voiceless counterpart and vice-versa and rotated the
vowels. The output is something that you can actually
read, and a great source of vocab, albeit not
truly "invented" words:)
today = dutey
program = brukrem,
etc.
