Aoife draws much of her inspiration from Semitic languages and most of her languages are directly inspired by Hebrew or Aramaic, in phonology, lexicon, grammar, history, or a combination thereof. Irish (both Old and Modern) is another common inspiration; both Irish and Hebrew have post-vocalic lenition as part of their diachronics. Stress-induced allomorphy, a feature of both Tiberian Hebrew and Old Irish, is a recurring theme in her conlangs.

Irish (both Old and Modern) is another common inspiration; both Irish and Hebrew have post-vocalic lenition as part of their diachronics. Stress-induced allomorphy, a feature of both Tiberian Hebrew and Old Irish, is a recurring theme in her conlangs. The Hebrew influence in each of these conlangs is different, however:
* An Bhlaoighne has Easter eggs from Hebrew vocab.
* Ditab is inspired ''phonologically'' by Tiberian Hebrew
* Ciêng is more loose, but it has stress-induced allomorphy (however, its overall diachronics is more inspired by Irish)
* Shemroghian is diachronically Aramaic-inspired
* Tsrovesh is loosely Modern Hebrew


Her conlangs are often borderline kitchen-sinky and jokey/unnaturalistic (Tsrovesh and Shemroghian are notable exceptions) but she should still manage to make it work. People joke that Old Irish is an Aoife conlang ("What if an IE language had Hebrew begadkefat (but also other mutations) and VSO word order, and stem allomorphy way more unpredictable than Tiberian Hebrew")
