Is "Vayaun" the same language as "Vakaman" (that IIRC was called "Vokhomos" in
an earlier stage)?

This never ceases to amaze me. Apart from Tolkien's languages, I doubt whether
there is any other conlang that has ever been such a direct inspiration for
other conlangs. I can assure you: without Brithenig, there wouldn't have been
Wenedyk.

Well, the material you posted earlier about it was interesting enough. Me, as a
Dutch person, had little trouble understanding it. So keep me far from your
diary (as if the distance between the Netherlands and New Zealand wasn't big
enough)...
