Mochadian was the first conlang I created. I actually created it long before I had any idea what a conlang was, then abandoned it for a couple years and later decided to use it for a project I have created to simulate a galaxy at war.

==Background==

The primary users of this language are the Mochadians, a previously warlike race that dominates nearly half the Mochadian galaxy  (Hence the name), but has since calmed down a bit... for now. Mochadians hold change and simplicity very deep in their morals, and that has caused the Mochadian language to go through many different stages during it's evolution. Ever since the galaxy started to expand, the need for a standardized Mochadian language was high, so it hasn't changed much since the Mochadians' expansion. Mochadian is basically the equivalent of esparanto or interlingua, but for the old Mochadian languages.

There are 34 phonemes written with 22 letters and 12 accentuated letters. Accentuated letters do not count as proper letters. There is also an additional accent, 'ś', but it's use is a bit more complex. Note that with this character set, you can transliterate (Or very closely approximate) words of many languages.  
There are 28 phonemes written with 19 letters and 9 accentuated letters. Accentuated letters do not count as proper letters.

The only rule is that you cannot double letters. There are absolutely NO exceptions whatsoever, under ANY circumstance where letters are pronounced different than normal. Each letter has exactly ONE pronunciation.

Here are the rules I've set in stone:
Here are the rules I've set in stone:
#If you have two adjacent words, whith the final letter of the first a vowel and the first letter of the second a vowel, they must be separated with “’”, which is pronounced as a glottal stop.
#All nouns end with a consonant.
#All nouns must end with a consonant
#Plural forms of nouns are attained by adding the suffix -a.
#Plural forms of nouns are attained by adding the suffix -e.
#All verbs end with a vowel.
#Only one tense, tense is inferred.
#To indicate past tense, -n is used. The present tense is unmarked.
#For now, until I complete the grammar, the word order will follow English.
#For now, until I complete the grammar, the word order will follow English.
#Adjectives proceed nouns, like in languages normal.
#Adjectives may come before or after nouns.
#Tangible plurals are -e, intangible plurals are -a

Still working on this, however I have a general idea that suffixes would be added to change word meanings, such as, for example, '-na' for negation.

The only words other than below that I've developed are 'Mokadeòn' (Of Mochadia), 'Mokadeò' (Mochadia), 'ét' (And), 'és' (Is), 'én' (In) 'da' (Of), 'ùn' (A), 'la' (Tha), 'ád' (At), 'no' (No), and 'à' (Or). I'm still thinking about everything else. After writing several sample texts, it has become apparent that words often do not surpass three letters. Here are some demonstrative sentences I have created:
