 :Pha Theng-thun (''Tsúnsîʔì fâtséng'', or Low Theng-thun) is one of the languages of the 'Rock clan' in the Tengesia world. Like other conlangs in that conworld, it descends from Tengoko and, more specifically, from Middle Theng-thun. It has little inter-intelligibility with Tunjietian, the leading Theng-thun language in its conworld. It could be seen as Tengoko's world analogue to some Chinese languages ('dialects') like Cantonese. Like nearly all Tengtunic languages, Pha Theng-thun is tonal. It is less restrictive about codae than other extant Tengtunic languages (being the only one that allows stops in syllable-final position).

For instance, I determined that I should combine Lojban ''ciska'', Arabic ''katab'', Romance ''scribire'' (as in Spanish ''escribir''), English ''write'', Quenya ''tec-'', Turkish ''yazmak'' and Greek ''graphein'' as the triliteral '''''S-K-T''''' for 'writing'.

-===Seven===
+===''Seven''===
 ''Seven'' is a group of ''meta-conlangs''; conlangs based on another conlangs of mine. All the ''Seven'' languages (except for ''Sivnäit'') share their phonology and phonotactics (they feature an inventory of seven vowels which are the source for their names). Vocabulary and grammar, however, are borrowed from randomly chosen conlangs (there is a bias towards a 4-gender system, though). So far, the following four ''Seven'' conlangs have been constructed (they may or may not end up being actually seven):

+===Okiwo languages===
+The Okiwo languages were part of collaborative project at the ''Conlangs (Español)'' Facebook group which consisted on creating descendants from a common Proto-Language (''Proto-Okiwo'').
+*'''[[Pvkthe]]'''
+:''A priori''
+:Pvkthe is not an Okiwo language ''per se'' but rather an alternative version of Proto-Okiwo (we were going to use Pvkthe but then [[User:Nicomega|Nicomega]] and I changed our minds about it and ended up creating another proto-language). Much like the final Proto-Okiwo, Pvkthe was designed so as to make it easy to derive different languages from it.

+===LESTO Project===
+LESTO (Language Evolution Simulation Test One) was yet another conlanging project which tried to derivate a language family from a proto-conlang. Unlike the Indoryan languages, however, LESTO was to be much more systematic, following a set of rules about how languages were to evolve and interact. So far there is only one LESTO language, Proto-LESTO (from March 2015) but I'll probably get down to work on this... eventually...
+*'''[[Proto-LESTO]]'''
+:''A posteriori'', LESTO
+:The proto-language of the LESTO project features a rather complex phonology (to leave plenty of room for future variations). As part of a joke on certain pseudo-linguistic affirmations, most of the lexical roots of this 'proto-world' language are based on Serbian (35%) and Tamil (35%), with the rest of the roots being based on other natural languages.

+:''A priori'', Wasetic
+:Proto-Wasetic is a tonal language. One interesting quirk of Proto-Wasetic is that, in addition to having three 'plain' stops ('''p''', '''t''' and '''k''') it has three 'complex' stops, namely 'pt' /pt~t̼/, 'tk' /c/ and 'kp' /k͡p/.

+*A sister conlang to Tighaia, also based on Proto-Tehya.
+*More Indoryan languages (including one ''Proto-Gaudic'', based on Archaic Proto-Indoryan rather than Late Proto-Indoryan like Ur).
+*Many Orelyscian languages including:
+**''Lusenian'', a Lyscian descendant with Romanian-like phonology as well as some Slavic influence.
+**''Romano-Lusenian'', a mix of Lusenian and Romanian itself.
+**''Salchatian'', a Eastern Orelyscian language.
+**''Oretian'', a Eastern Orelyscian language with Turkic influences.

+*''Riaţane'', a Rhaeto-Romance conlang.
+*Other triband languages, specially '''''SEGTL''''' (South-East Glacial Triband Language) with some sort of 'chromatic harmony'.
+*A language related to Aiedain which replaces Aiedain's honorific systems with emotion markers.
+*A hybrid Austronesian/Dravidian  language.
+*A family of conlangs based on Lyra's world from Philip Pullman's ''His Dark Materials'' which includes grammar features like extra grammatical persons for ''"dæmons"''.
+*Languages related to Hesperic, like a French-like conlang based on Greek or a Romance language akin to Modern Greek.
+*At least one conlang based on Pvkthe.
+*Other Okiwo languages including:
+**Okata, a Polynesian-like conlang.
+**Ishtanian, with some Sumero-Akkadian influences.
+**Two conlangs based on Ishtanian: one in the Balkanic Sprachbund and another closer to Saami languages.
+*Other conlangs for the LESTO project.
+*Possibly other another Wasetic conlang.
+It's rather likely that I'll end up creating other conlangs based on new ideas before working on those, though.
