This makes me wonder which natlang(s) are most similar to Asha'ille, and whether it has any truly unattested, original aspects to it. I've read in passing about parameterization as a way of explaining how different languages end up with different surface forms. Are there any efforts to describe many languages based on such parameters, so that you can then compare your language's parameters against other languages'? -- AA
