Linguifex
This wiki is aimed at facilitating the development and creation of constructed languages, conlangs. Constructed languages are made with many different purposes in mind; experimentation, internationalisation, enjoyment and a lot more. They are often linked to constructed cultures and other kinds of inspired settings. Constructed languages have almost endless possibilities, so try making one!

Flag of Avendonia
Avendonian (autoglossonym: avendoniano; Avendonian: [avendoˈni̯ano]) is a West Germanic language, with strong influence of Vulgar Latin. It is the result of a prolonged contact among members of both regions, after West Germanic merchants began travelling to and from the Western Roman Empire. These connections—and the conquest by the Germanic tribes of the northern skirts of the Roman Empire—slowly formed a creole for mutual communication. Eventually, permanent settlements were established in what would become modern-day Avendonia, where Avendonian is primarily spoken, with official status.
Do you want to create a language? It can take a lot of work to make it presentable but the results are often amazing! To make your own language you need to decide on:
The phonology - the sounds of the language.
The grammar - the framework of the language.
The vocabulary - the words and dictionary of the language. Enter a title in the box below to start creating your language.
