'''Endqwo''' ([[w:endonym|endonym]]: ''ndq̀o''; <small>Endqwo:</small> [[w:IPA chart|[n̩d.qʷo]]) is the experimental version of its sister, [[Endeqwo]], it works like, and takes large inspiration from, Ithkuil, except with a much larger sound inventory, allowing for even more distinctions, this language makes little attempt at pronouncability, instead favoring efficiency.

==Etymology==
ndq̀o is a compound of {{term|n}} (life) + {{term|-d}} (of our kind (like -ish)) + {{term|q̀o}} (language), so it literally translates as 'The language of life of our kind', thus 'language of our people'
