Uhh, Zelos, I found an interestin fact related to Umbrean: Umbrakinesis means moving/motion of darkness, and Umbra is the Umbrean name for the language Rostov-na-don 22:34, July 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * Umbra is the Latin word for shadow, you have words like "umbrella" or "umbrage". It might just be a coincidence though. Razlem 23:43, July 14, 2010 (UTC)

There is a relation The Emperor Zelos 05:53, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

This must be a pretty hard language to learn, since i calculated that there are over 4912 different suffixes Lufttygger306 18:36, February 8, 2011 (UTC)

There are plenty more but yes =) The Emperor Zelos 05:13, February 9, 2011 (UTC)

This will be my "example to follow" in the next few days :)

BTW under the translations part, there is a bolded rext that is like

"This languageS has achieved great..."

Vowel Orthography
I've noticed some overlapping vowels in your system, is that intentional? Since your "o" could mean two, three different vowels Bluegamma 22:02, April 16, 2011 (UTC)

Its intentional =) Allophones The Emperor Zelos 05:28, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

I really liked your genders haha

I think your addings (suffixes etc) are too wide.. meaning there is a great amount of them. Are you able to remember all of them?

Great job.
