In an early (unwittingly) relex project of mine, the con-word "ensser"
kept popping up in my mind as a suitable word to mean 'between' for no
reason apparent to me then. Only much later did it strike me that I had
subconsciously taken French "entre", given it the US-like -re->-er
end-flip and included the Modern High German feature of having an -ss-
instead of English/Scandinavian intervocalic -t-. It did give me the
feeling of taking a peek into my own subconscious mind!

Have others detected such Freudian/Jungian patterns in their
conlanging?
