Proto-Kett:

Before I die, I'm gonna fuck me a fish.

Ich shael rüstkiele die manen dass hürsted all mein freunden, furlast ich mörte, fur die splaeter ist müchvan sen wenn die talhorden laest sein deun resten.

Loosely translated as:

"I will get the men who took advantage of my friends before I die; the splatter will be delightful when their goons lay them down to rest."

*Note*This is Teune. :3

Nortaneous, Where did you get your influence for Proto-Kett? I can't tell if it looks more of an eastern european bent or of a welsh-ish bent... :|

Ok. Read them.

Yes. I deliberately based the language on german. Thus it is very close to german.

You write "German" with small letter. Respect.

Sorry, but I really don't care about capitalizing german. It's a language that I enjoy. Wait a minute... did you mean something else?

Per the rules, glosses, please! These posts don't show me how the language works.

(If you don't know how to gloss, word-by-word "literal" translations can substitute, but I recommend learning some glossing rules--they're like IPA, super-handy.)

Is kiadhé used for any other relationships besides temporal precedence? (Or maybe it's used for particular flavors of temporal precedence?)

What sorts of structures require rik, and which do not?
