Fulang

Setting : Shelth
Fulang, pronounced in English as "Full-Ang", is from a world that suffered a near extinction event that drove people underground for a long time. Half of Fulang comes from the language spoken by the majority of the surivors, being adapted as they spent several tens of generations in caves and other shelters. The rest sprung up from a variety of sources as the need arose, the biggest contribution coming from onomatopoeias.

Phonology : Powndlir
Fulang uses an alphabeta with 28 letters, 18 consonants and 10 vowels. Most are able to map over to the Latin alphabet with ease, save for five of the vowels, typically representing the "long" sound of a vowel in English. Fulang Alphabet (Romanized)

Verbs

The verbs are the most important part of Fulang. Each verb has an unchanging base, such as "eheh" for the case of "be". For basic verb usage, suffixes are then added to show who or what is doing the action and at what time. For more advanced use, "eheh" can be added unconjugated to the front of the verb. In most cases the conjugation of the rest of the verb is the same for the desired effect.

Adjectives

Adjectives are not very important in Fulang, though they are far from neglected. A strange quirk of Fulang is that in many cases of lesser used adjectives, there is only one word for both postive and negitive. Instead, the prefix "uh-" is added, much like "un-" or "anti-" would be in other languages. Frequently used adjectives have a word for both, instead of relying on this method.
