So Hrondu would be L1, G2, T1, C1, P3, S1
And it's weird, cause phonology is the bit I hate the most. Text corpus
and lexicon grow at the same rate, for me, usually, since that's how I go
about ccoining new words. The conculture I keep vacilating on -- I have a
semi-historical location and raison d'etre, which allows me to borrow from
Chinese a lot, but there are things I don't like about that. Script, too,
I'm vacilating on. I had a way of writing it in a modified Brahmic
script, but I hated it so now I'm working on a syllabary that just exists
in the margins of my notebook.
