Help your conlang fluency (2)

Substantial postings about constructed languages and constructed worlds in general. Good place to mention your own or evaluate someone else's. Put quick questions in C&C Quickies instead.

You did not.

"na'eta" would never be a single glyph, but "heko" is correct. It's best to steer clear of Kenaya...even I have a hard time with it.

I can't sleep, can't use my computer because Windows 10 is bad. The flatmate of mine who I don't really like and who doesn't really like me just peed in the toilet next to my bedroom and I can still hear the water.

Sorry about the pidgining. Making novel utterances with what input is left around is kind of like making a slice of bread back from the breadcrumbs. Yet, for some reason, I enjoy it. Maybe that's the Lambuzhao version of "getting Jankoed" ?

Good work. It's just "wa" though. Saying "wai i" would be a bit like saying "You're are" ... doubling up on the copulation. Also, "ha" at the end of the sentence indicates surprise or functions like a tag question, so you kind of said "You slept (didn't you)?" Normal would be Ha wa i lwe? :-)
Na i nye ba he lwe mye i ze bo. Na i zenggwa bo u bahe.
I really should sleep now but I don't want to. I never want to when I need to.

Welcome back!

It's all easy sounds but I think this language is going to be very tongue-twistery for me.

I generally forget to say, so if it's relevant and I don't mention it--I'm from Southern Michigan and speak Inland North American English. Yes, I have the Northern Cities Vowel Shift; no, I don't have the cot-caught merger; and it is called pop.
