About Kombokeho Sentowa Kombokeho tsenthowa, or the island language, is the main language of the autonomous island region of Kombokeho, an island approximately 25 miles from the southwestern coastline of the continent Etoe’s river delta. It is related to Old Hakkan, a dialect of the landlocked country of the same name. Explorers colonized the land as they saw that it was uninhabited.

Inspiration
Kombokeho Sentowa, or The Island Language as it is called, is inspired for the most part by the modern Japanese language. Despite over 90% of its lexical inventory coming from Classical Hakkan, Kombokeho Sentowa is designed to sound like Japanese, since it is indeed a syllable-timed language where each vowel receives an equal amount of length, except in the case of long vowels. Morphosyntactically, Kombokeho Sentowa functions nearly in the way Japanese does, despite its SVO word order. In a way, it is likened to the way Okinawan language differs and functions alongside Modern Standard Japanese. Words can inflect to express person and number, as well plural number. It is synthetic and agglutinative all at the same time. Kombokeho Sentowa was made as purely diversion and is written with a mixture of Kanji, or Chinese characters, Hiragana, and Katakana.
