Montreiano is actually probably the most stable of my conlangs. Reason being, because I want it to be a fairly realistic looking Romance Lang, i really cant do much innovation by way of grammar. However, vocabulary wise, I can add in words from different languages to make it different (such as the various Rumsien words i wrote down so I can incorporate them in). So, i could probably commit that one to print. But, Saalangal on the other hand changes from time to time, so i'm a bit wary of committing that to print (although it seems to be stabilizing out). ____________________________ Aunque vengas de rodillas y me implores y me pidas aunque vengas y me llores que te absuelva y te perdone Aunque a mi me causes pena he tirado tus cadenas
