I am not sure whether this is a correlation equals causation fallacy, or whether
it simply is that my strange perception of the world caused my conlangs to develop
as they did, but I did notice some differences. It is not easy to tell, but for
example I feel that I compare 'rejistanian' in my thoughts and since I invented
the alsi- comparisons, I tried to translate them into the natlangs, I use quite
often because something is just so very clearly 'alsina good'. (I do not know what
the grammatical term for these forms of comparison is, but they are comperatives
and superlatives, which indicate that the use of the adjective was only justified
in the comparison: If I have 5 € and you have 5.10 €, none of us is rich but
you are alsina rich han me.)
I hope this makes some form of sense.
