About Ide
Ide is a language with approximately 27,863 speakers as of 2022. The majority of its speakers are in Iseun, a nation that has been largely unknown for centuries.
Interestingly, many of its words seem to resemble that of other language families, though it is unknown which are true cognates.
(This is another conlang that may make some attempts to feel naturalistic, but isn't entirely focused on being natural. To be honest, this is just something to give me more confidence in building a lexicon. And good news, it worked.)
