Joe: I just had a look at the ned'm page. There are some interesting things there, although, by your own admission, a lot more work needs to be done before the causal reader can make much sense of the grammar. I must say that I was surprised and quite offended to find the phrase "I don't hate gays, I hate fags" used to illustrate the pronunciation of the "ey" sound. Not only is this a complete non sequitur, it's also highly mean-spirited, in my opinion. I suggest that you remove these infantile touches if you want your conlang projects to be taken seriously by others. Matt.
