About High Aethil
I've abandoned this because I think it's too derivative (grammarwise) of Icelandic and other Germanic tongues.
An Artlang I worked on a lot in the past, but I'm reviving it and uploading it to CWS.
Interesting Features:
-Masculine/Feminine Semi-Vowel Harmony
-Biliteral/Triliteral/Quadriliteral Verbs
-Initial Consonant Lenition
-Custom Script (Not on CWS yet)
Links:
-Personal Pronouns
-Relative Pronouns
-Demonstrative Pronouns
-Interrogative Pronouns
-Indefinite Pronouns
