Re: making up words

 Me, personally - I like to find a nice, long song in a language I don't
understand and make my own forms of the words from there. It's also a good way
to discover some pretty neat bands. Currently, it's Danish and Irish Gealic -
two very nice-sounding languages. I also use a word-generator when unable to
come up with stuff - sparingly, but several nice-sounding words were churned
out by random processes in my computer.

once you've settled on the
phonology and phonotaxis of your language-in-progress, how do you go about
making up the phonological forms of new words (as opposed to their meaning)?

Do you use a random number generator?

Or just play it by ear?
