vaj nuq?
White Wolf's Storytelling game, Werewolf: the Forsaken came
up with a language called "First Tongue," or Uremehir in
that language. The sounds of that language are derived
from, of all things, the phonemes of Sumerian.
But for the lack of support from White Wolf, there'd likely
be an Uremehir mailing list today, and a whole lot of
furries.
As it is, a language - like an Empire - must either be
expanding and growing, or dead.
Outside of KGT, how many new canon words or grammatical
rules have been revealed since December 2005 again?
Peace,
Alex.
