Thanks. Some places flame you to death if you don't follow their exact little dogmas...

Entertaining, but though I have learned enough to have something resembling a conversation in it (okay, so I can say my name, my friend's names, six greetings, something about hot chocolate and cheese, and goodbye. *shrug*). From what little I do know, I can say it's not pleasent at all. Too many "g" sounds. <g>

Proto-Meisteik [my-styk] is the best-developed so far (mainly because I take songs and poems and translate them. /Omende tieker asdo, nokha tieker feanda dyur zsen/), while P-Pr'ii [pry] has more words, and P-Kaveril is just my general favorite.
