-I. Write a short piece stating your intents and purposes when creating the language (Design goal, inspiration, ideas, and so on).
-II. Write a short introduction to your language. (Who speaks it? When was it created? By whom? or what? are some example questions that can be answered here)
-III. Once done, try making sure everything is properly spelt so as to avoid unnecessary reader fatigue.

-==Phonology==
-===Orthography===
-===Consonants===
-The consonants are the same as in Israeli Hebrew, plus ''ch'' /tʃ/, ''dz'' /dz/, ''zh'' /ʒ/ and ''dj'' /dʒ/.
-===Vowels===
-The vowels are the same as in Israeli Hebrew or Georgian.
-===Prosody===
-====Stress====
-====Intonation====
-===Phonotactics===
-Tsrovesh phonology is slightly less restrictive than Israeli Hebrew but much more so than Georgian. As in both languages, initial consonant clusters appear frequently in Tsrovesh, for example:
-* ''Tsrovesh'' (the name of the language)
-* ''ldag'' (door)
-* ''shmer'' (man)
-* ''tsnakhat'' (dream)
-* ''gzin'' (to shine)
-* ''vlo'' (to live)
-* ''lvar'' (to play)
-* ''tmezhov'' (to find)
-* ''tkeshet'' (regardless)
-Medial consonant clusters are also common:
-* ''ertma'' (spider)
-* ''detkvisi'' (limestone)
-* ''opkhram'' (reed)
-===Morphophonology===
-==Morphology==
-===Nouns===
-Nouns have 9 cases: nominative, genitive, accusative, dechticaetiative/instrumental, locative, comitative, essive, adverbial and vocative.
-===Verbs===
-The present, past and future tenses are ''be-'', ''ki-'' and ''sa-'' respectively.
-Verbs do not inflect for person but they do inflect for number (except for the copula): the plural suffix is ''-eba''.
-The negative suffix is ''-tso'', and when fused with the plural it becomes ''-tsoba''. The negative form of the copula is ''tso''.
-Participial forms are used in the perfect and progressive tenses.
-==Syntax==
-===Constituent order===
-Tsrovesh sentence structure is VSO and head-final, except for complementizer phrases and prepositional phrases. Tsrovesh is not zero-copula; the word for 'to live' is used as a copula. Word order is strict, and topicalization occurs with the suffix ''-eti''.
-===Noun phrase===
-The adjective comes before the noun in Tsrovesh:
-''ha udvanit ertma'' = the happy spider
-(udvanit = happy, ertma = spider)
-But relative clauses are placed after the noun:
-''ertma, li-ves ha-shmer kikhaven'' = spider who the man killed
-===Verb phrase===
-===Sentence phrase===
-===Dependent clauses===
-<!-- etc. etc. -->
-==Numbers==
