=== [[Omonkwi]] (ca. 2003) ===
=== [[Omonkwi]] (ca. 2003) ===
: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 [[w:Popol Vuh|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.

=== [[Českoen]] (ca. 2003) ===
:Českoen is more of a semi-spooflang, in the sense that it was created with a whole history behind it. It was supposed to be very simple and analytic, but with a tradition that claimed it was indeed quite complex and a "school" trying to revive awareness of its complexity, I had fun parodying notions of "better languages" or "complex = good". In its backstory the ''Ezgizo Ezgeskoinama'' school fought the ''Azgizu'' school for control over the teaching of the language. The idea was a language that sounded pretty much like [[w:Huttese|Jabba the Hutt's Huttese]] but with minimal class prefixes for noun and adjective, singular and plural.
