My first assumption (and please correct me if I'm wrong) is that you would
consider Ygyde to be a "real conlang".

I rather understood that Andrew deplores that even his own conlang isn't fleshed out enough. <<< Here's the passage: -- Long ago, in a quiet village in France, there lived a miller. That miller had three sons and two daughters. The oldest son wanted to become a knight one day, but his father had no money to buy a horse. The middle son wanted to become a monk, but the nearest monastery had no room for him. The youngest son didn't know what he wanted to do. We don't know what the daughters wanted, because stories in those days didn't talk about such things. --

In my own (real???) conlang: U musara-makingi wa mutisu-taisimuta apinusu tamuku-sawanuta yamuwasanga u Pirumi-purasu. Mutisu-taisimuta pamanga amaipinusa marita-mawaruki ai sitiki marita-maruki. U kumata pitisi wa marita-mawaruki yakumisa marata wa akusumi pumuku tanimi-pasina u tanangi tisuniyu aputaki maipakasi kananga katiri pasina u pisami. Marita-mawaruki yamarata-pimiki akusumi pumuku minuki-makisi u tanangi purusi-makisi yakumisa mawakingi wa aputaki maipusamu yuyu. Marita-mawaruki yakumisa mawarata wa aputaki kumusa pamanga i akusumi pumukuyu. Pikani-pikani aputaki kumusa pamanga i sitiki marita-maruki akusumiyu wa u purita pasimi-pasimi yu pisiri-musara pamanga wa aputaki misura purungu-purungu pamanga. Word-to-word translation: In past-remote, well, professional-grind dwells town-small that-quiet in Country-France. Professional-grind this has-three child-male and two child-female. In some day, well, child-male who-most old, well, wants become military-horse with restriction father-his not has-money buy one horse even. Child-male who-old-middle wants become servant-prayer with restriction institution-prayer that-most close, well, not has-position which-to-him. Child-male who-most young, well, not know that which wants become-it. We not know that which two child-female want-it, well, with cause stories of time-past that, well, not mention things those. This one conlang has a main flaw: all the words sound the same... kumisa: (ut)most kumusa: know kusumi: want pimiki: center, middle pumuku: become, grow pinusu: dwell pinusa: three pasina: horse pisami: even pasimi: story pusamu: occupation, position (job)
