About Taara
Taara started out as 20 words from a sci-fi universe, and made a language out of them because I was bored for two weeks with nothing to do between first and second semester my second year of high school. Since then, it has gone through 2 different changes where I changed the grammar and the sounds that it had. Currently it is still being developed. It has 2 adjectives based on whether it describes a physical attribute of the object or a condition of the object (in-condition before, an-physical attribute after).
