[snip] OK, that's what I thought. Cool... I'd love to participate in this then. Esp. since the grammar of my conlang is still very early in development, and the lexicon has less than 30 entries in it still! :-( Which means I won't be able to participate in a full translation relay anytime soon, but this phonological relay is my chance to show off my conlang :-P T
