Morphology



Natural Earth languages have morphology.  Often made-up language lack this
feature, particularly those constructed from single-syllable elements.  I
wish to praise Klingon for having the Noun Suffix {-oy}, without a glottal
stop at the beginning.  In MO's own words, even in English we generally
pronounce words beginning with a vowel as if it had a minor glottal stop.

Basically, tlhInganpu' do not say puq 'oy' distinctly when they mean puqoy.
 They have to say pu-qoy.  Klingon has morphology :)
