Mrimaumri
1. Mrimaumri is a conlang created by the idea to make a language that has pretty sounds for singing songs. It should be smooth. It contains some rare consonant combinations and the use of the german diphtong "au" is the Erkennungsmerkmal. The grammar should be simple and unique. The language is not complete yet. It is open to changes to make the sound prettier.
2. Mrimaumri is a language of a conworld. The world is like a aviation world. Because of the spoilt poisoned soil people live on flying steel islands. The people also speak many rare natlangs and mixes of them. For example german and Japanese are more widespread than in the actual world. English is not dominant in this world. Language used in the conworld change and develop quickly. No one knows how mrimaumri rose. The inhabitants of the world are able to speak and learn many languages. That's the reason why no one knows on which influence mrimaumri rose. There is no inventor at all.

Übersetzung von Songtexten Eisblumen von Eisblumen
Der Tag flieht eilig aus der Stadt – ljuh djuhg wihn fjuhih lohluh gwihdih
Sie trinkt sich an den Schatten satt – eh’ah mihfih wruhg päi gluhrih‘el
Und gibt ihr wahres Antlitz preis – deh’uh tmaugihmoht chyu wrehda tabjuhd
Die Pfützen schimmern schon wie Eis – eh’ah laschel fjuhdaun gxad tahs ais
Am Himmel glänzt ein Silberstreif – päi draun njuhn nel rihnautaisch
Der Abend wandelt Tau zu Reif – ljuh fjahd djis djuhm suh duhl
Die Bleichheit die von unseren Wangen schneit – eh’ah tamraudehk guh nihs nuh chyihmel naisch
macht uns wie Engel schön – muchxao nuh bel tahs gmow’el (äl like in Fell)
Sie sollten auf die Knie gehen – täilm golsd mow mäi bih’el
und beten das der Mond verhangen bleibt - deh’uh bäig wähd ljuh luhn schtäig bruhg

Wir kleiden uns in Traurigkeit – nuh flächy nuh öils glaomrih
Doch geht der Tag und unsere Zeit – fil ljuh djuhg telaht deh’uh nuh glaisch
Wer leuchten Will, der fleht das Licht – bruhs woals schowg, ljuh wihn ljuh bjehm,
Der schaut der Nacht ins Angesicht – ljuh ohsd ljuh chxraibowg öiluh belmrihd
Die Bleichheit die von unseren Wangen schneit – eh’ah tamraudeht guh nihs nuh chyihmel naisch

alphabet
I made a syllable alphabet of 912 syllables. I used a conscript like hangeul to quickly have characters for all syllables. I wanted to know how much one and two syllable words can be constructed from the 912 syllables. That should be 912 one syllable words and 912*912 two syllable word. That should be a great variety of words.
I have an idea of how to establish the vocabulary. The time consuming thing is allocation. I lately heard about reverse sound from the vocabulary from other natlangs. I will not only reverse, reversing only gives the inspiration, then I put the first word drafts in my alphabet and grammatical system.
the green coloured syllables are rarely used
the blue ones and the violett ones are often used
