Excellent resource that, even if it's partly based on the Glosa auxlang...
I really like Frater2... must be my partial Chinese background and my
personal lingua-aesthetico preference for pidgin/creole-like langs (& luvly lil
mangalangs ;)

Language[s] change[s]: vowels shift, phonologies crash-&-burn, grammars
leak, morpho-syntactics implode, lexico-semantics mutate, lexicons explode,
orthographies reform, typographies blip-&-beep, slang flashes, stylistics
warp... linguistic (R)evolutions mark each-&-every quantum leap...
languages are "naturally evolved wild systems...
So language does not impose order on a chaotic universe,
but reflects its own wildness back." - Gary Snyder
