Around June 2013, a Germanic conlang with a naïve interpretation of French sound changes applied to it was sketched up and called ''Jaillais'' (located currently on [https://sites.google.com/site/lairezjaillais/ Google Sites]) | Around June 2013, a Germanic conlang with a naïve interpretation of French sound changes applied to it was sketched up and called ''Jaillais'' (located currently on [https://sites.google.com/site/lairezjaillais/ Google Sites]). Later on, resources on [[w:Phonological_history_of_French | the Phonological history of French]], [[w:History_of_the_Spanish_language | the History of the Spanish language]] and [[w:History_of_Romanian | the History of Romanian]] (amongst many others) were encountered, highlighting some of the deficiencies of Jaillais. | ||
For a while, no further development on Jaillais was made, but casual sketches with both more and less authentic Romance sound changes applied to the Germanic languages were made over the years. In the end, Spanish-inspired sound changes won out, as, next to French, Spanish has some of the stranger sound changes in the Romance language family, making it easier to obscure the original Proto-Germanic roots. | |||
Over time, other conlangers developed better fleshed-out French-inspired mixed Romance-Germanic conlangs, and so Jaillais has been left unfinished to avoid crowding that creative space. | |||
In December 2019, 6 and a half years after Jaillais, an absurdist, untranslated text was left in a conlanging group on Facebook with the intent of it being deciphered; this text demonstrated an earlier stage of Ceuja. | |||
