'''Endeqwo''' ([[w:endonym|endonym]]: ''ndeqʷo''; <small>Endeqwo:</small> [[w:IPA chart|[n̩.de.qʷo]]) is an isolate language, it's mainly inspired by Caucasian languages like Ubykh and Georgian, as well as many other Polysynthetic languages, and despite its appearance of efficiency, Ithkuil had no influence in its creation.
==Etymology==
ნდეჸჳო is a compound of {{term|ნ}} (n; life) + {{term|-დე}} (-de; of our kind (like -ish)) + {{term|ჸჳო}} (qʷo; language), so it literally translates as 'The language of life of our kind', thus 'language of our people'

Endeqwo (endonym: ndeqʷo; Endeqwo: [n̩.de.qʷo) is an isolate language, it's mainly inspired by Caucasian languages like Ubykh and Georgian, as well as many other Polysynthetic languages, and despite its appearance of efficiency, Ithkuil had no influence in its creation.

Etymology

ნდეჸჳო is a compound of ნ (n; life) + -დე (-de; of our kind (like -ish)) + ჸჳო (qʷo; language), so it literally translates as 'The language of life of our kind', thus 'language of our people'
