As we say in Spanish, it all looks like Chinese to me xD.

Yours seems to use more Kanji.

Actually the Japanese uses more kanji, if only because I translated "go skiing" as "go to ski" (one kanji, and ski in katakana) in Japanese and "do ski" (hiragana/katakana) in Yaufulti. Winter translates to "cold-period" in Yaufulti, so I used two kanji, but real is a single morpheme, single kanji. The opposite is true of Japanese – winter is a single morpheme and "hontou" (real) is two kanji (the one I used in Yaufulti, 正, usually means "correct" but I interpreted it as "real" for my purposes). The Yaufulti uses more hiragana especially the first sentence.

wonder if I could adopt hangul/hanja to Amqoli. katakana is definitely out, too many clusters. this is a horrible and probably wrong in many ways abuse of it (phonetic characters! there really is nothing about toothaches in here, but there's nothing even remotely like /dze/ in hangul. and phonetic complements to hanja to make the last line fit! edit: fourteen kill stele. DOUBLEKILLED) but sig:

Per dairo l'advertat, per anglais de l'Ànglea el zoac de vèrbei ne stentaja que d'oral. Nojaltrei screivam le doa de diferènt: groin per na jèngra e groyne pel mòr de mar.
To be honest, in British English, the pun only works when spoken. We write the two differently: groin for the body part and groyne for the breakwater.

Tsarav hamn hanhekia. Gosbinj kahve ixormi, hamn ha roxbara birka vang kilkil dzehdzeh ihua, avel sengert ihua cami parvast, migveas temcihua ginmi. I just scared myself to death. I didn't have coffee today, so just now as I was coming from the bathroom I got a bit dizzy and stumbled, and would have fallen down the stairs headfirst if my hand hadn't got trapped in the door.
Kahve xormi xaspia! Not drinking coffee is dangerous!
Γω δοίρω σουρ σεις ώρας η μαις αίω καφέ. Είμαι κάλος. Go dyro sur sis oras i mes eo kafé. Ime kalos.
xD I sleep around six hours and never have coffee. I do fine.

Here in South Florida it's sometimes cold in winter, but it just about never snows.
