And you're just seeing the tip of the iceberg from a distance. :-) If you think my documentation of Ebisedian is detailed, wait till you see some of the other online grammars by other members of this list. Among these are David Bell's Amman Iar, which I mentioned in my previous message, which is a conlang a LOT more developed than Ebisedian; he has put up a website with extensive, exhaustive, very detailed information about the grammar of Amman Iar. Definitely a lot more than you can easily digest in a few sittings. As far as Ebisedian goes... once you're done with that tutorial and want to know more about Ebisedian, there is a more in-depth, more detailed, heavy-duty grammar to be found at: http://quickfur.ath.cx:8080/~hsteoh/conlang/grammar.pdf Which is duly accompanied by the full Ebisedian lexicon, which is still under development (as is everything else in Ebisedian, really): http://quickfur.ath.cx:8080/~hsteoh/conlang/lexicon.pdf
