Some quick thoughts.

Actually, not really many quick thoughts at all. I did start work on a new project the other day. I realized that if Enki were to be the language of the protagonists, what would truly be the language of the antagonists?

Of the wicked? So, I started work on a new language called Chtönian. The difference between the two languages is primarily that Chtönian is completely agglutinative, as opposed to optionally agglutinative, like Enki, and it has more multisyllabants, for instance, CH being a K sound, GH and ZH representing similar sounds, a J-like sound, and so on and so forth.

Note that Chtönian is pronounced as : Ch-t-oe-nee-an.

That's an interesting side note about a lot of my languages: They tend to have multiple different representations of the same sound. For instance, Enki has GH and J both representing the english J sound.

I was thinking about making the language a bit more inflectional, but then I thought about Basque. To put it simply, Basque nouns are estimated to have over 400,000 forms. Of course, in this case, nouns will probably have a lot of forms, as they will have the different cases, and aspects… Oh well.

Anyways. That's about it for now.
