About Cuami
All diacritic marks are supposed to be separate from letters(ű = u + ̋ ).
Orthography is as clear as possible. Exception: ńý (ny+y) is pronounced ny, not nyy.
ý only appears at the end of the word(as for now, only used in "-ing" as final letter). pi, fi (p and f arenʹt used without i), â don't have capitals(words can't start with them).
To combine words · symbol is used (for example, outweight = out+weight = iv·mańe). Same goes for past/present/future (prefixes: de for past, is for present, hi for future).
Antonyms = prefix ʺaʺ+word (old-young, end-start, end-beginning, come-leave, etc.). Synonyms don't exist(main word is used).
Names are adopted(Earth is Earth, Washington is Washington), punctuation is English-like.
For multiple things use ʹ -> human = nāru, humans = nāruʹs.
Basically gender neutral, but there is esi (he) and esĩ (she) if needed.
Numbers are combined by stacking (30 = ari+nami).
Long numbers are divided by triples (132947882 -> 132 947 882), multiple numbers doesn't stack(88 -> ruoa, not ruoruo; 444 -> ċanu, not ċanċanċan <- a suffix for 2, u suffix for 3, +numbers don't end with them).
If you need more, then u stacks -> billion = ċai-de-namiuuu (uuu = 3*3 = 9).
Long numbers are combined by stacking with -de- (with dividing by triples) (132347 = 132-de-247 = ċaiarimo-de-moċanmire).

Now all the earth continued to be of one language and of one vocabulary. As they travelled eastward, they discovered a valley plain in the land of Shinar, and they began dwelling there. Then they said to one another: "Come! Let us make bricks and bake them with fire." So they used bricks instead of stone, and bitumen as mortar. They now said: "Come! Let us build a city for ourselves and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a celebrated name for ourselves, so that we will not be scattered over the entire face of the earth." / / Then Yahweh went down to see the city and the tower that the sons of men had built. Yahweh then said: "Look! They are one people with one language, and this is what they have started to do. Now there is nothing that they may have in mind to do that will be impossible for them. Come! Let us go down there and confuse their language in order that they may not understand one another's language." So Yahweh scattered them from there over the entire face of the earth, and they gradually left off building the city. That is why it was named Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth, and Yahweh scattered them from there over the entire face of the earth.[view all texts]
