Zûnthåmê

From Langmaker

Zûnthåmê (Zukish) is the main language of the planet Myon, and was created to use in my SC4 city journals about the Republic of Myon. Zukish is written using the Latin lettering system in some places, and its own, Hebrew-like script in others. Zukish has a SVO word order.

Design Principles

To create a language that is distinctly alien in nature, and somewhat unwieldy to speak, and to see how many diacritical marks I could use just for vowels.
