Endqwo (endonym: ndq̀o; Endqwo: [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 a very small attempt at pronouncability, favoring efficiency, which is obvious from words like "atnmŝt̂ṡesṕos", pronounced /at.nmt͡sʷʼ.tʷʼt͡ses.pʼos/ or /at.nmt͡sʷʼtʷʼ.t͡ses.pʼos/ (I haven't decided)
Etymology
ndq̀o is a compound of n (life) + -d (of our kind (like -ish)) + q̀o (language), so it literally translates as 'The language of life of our kind', thus 'language of our people'

Grammar
Credit to John Quijada and Ithkuil for much of what is here, I based a very large amount of grammar off that, and for many things I took Itgkuil documentation, simplified down the wording for my sake, and used that, so lots of credit to his work.
Morphology
This language has a complex and expansive grammar system, just as Ithkuil, this system is arguably more complex because it has all the distinctions of Ithkuil, plus some.
