Omonkwi started as an early attempt to capture the sounds I liked from mesoamerican indigenous languages via a poorly pronounced (by my high-school teacher) version of deity names in the Popol Vuh. Names such as Vucub Caquix, Cabrakán, Zipacná and Chilmamat. It can be viewed as a weird kind of homage, trying to create a language out respect for it but not having the materials to know more about it, something common before the rise of the internet as we know it.
- Sample:
- ipāgnat šival gōkwili
- Mountains (are) the jaws of the Earth.
