Well, I haven't written or uploaded anything in a loooong time. Which is sad, but I'm lazy and forgetful. 
I do however have quite a few bits and pieces that I've been working on over the last year or so, which I will begin to upload. Some activity, yay!

So, I've had this language in my head for years, for my created world 'Velysiria'. It's gone through a great many changes, in pronunciation, spelling, letters and in its' created alphabet. Recently I've been muddling around with the alphabet quite a bit, looking through all my old versions, comparing them to my new ones and trying to decide on what to keep. I could keep the old versions as in-world ancient versions of Velys, but the language is a created one in the fictional world as well. Veryxes created the language as a common tongue for all the beings that inhabit her world, a language that could be spoken, thought (through telepathy) and written by as many as possible.
I think the actual spelling and pronunciation has at least settled down, it's stayed the same way for quite a few months now, which is good. I'm not very good with anything that isn't English and I'm terrible at the whole verbs/nouns etc etc thing, which is kinda sad because I was pretty good at it when I was at school. :( I must be the only person who's getting stupider rather than wiser as I'm getting older haha.

Anyway, Velys is meant to be quite an easy language, the majority of it is phonetic though there are some exceptions. Velysiria and Veryxes both being the most prominent examples. 

I'll leave you with some examples, though I'll have to scan in the writing examples some time in the future, if I decide on something. :3

First line of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
Ydri venjan hjer temel jehi á veska wa durþaniel á nalski.

A common phrase, a good luck, be well kind of phrase.
May the stars guide you.
Tryni iers tu.

Some common greetings.
Hello. 
Skaijur. (formal)
Skai. (informal, kinda like hi)

How are you?
Va tu kar.
(There's no question mark, 'va' indicates that the sentence is a question rather than a statement, 'tu kaa' is literally translated as 'you feel' so the sentence becomes something like 'how you feel' or 'what you feel'. There are some other question words if you want to be specific with how, what, when, where, why etc.)

It's good to see you!
Prr var drúk tu.

Nice to meet you!
Imana gudra tu.

Give me more please? :3

Stolen from :iconchunjihuli:
Done for the character of Kylukaaru, an odd looking animal standing about 5 feet at the shoulder, heavy set in the chest area with webbed, dextrous front limbs and long, powerful back limbs with more paw like feet, a long, rudder like tail, lots of extra fur over the neck area, the nape, some down the back and lots over the tail, strong dual horns on the head, one long, straight set merged with ram horns. Kinda a mix between otter, canine/feline, kangaroo and lord knows what else. Her species is called an Okkynúkain and I should draw a picture....

Final score: 9-O 3-/

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1-8 = poor, boring character
"You need to spice them up a little bit, give them some more interesting points"

9-25 = interesting/well balanced character
"Your character is well balanced and catches peoples attention. It would be possible for your character to exist in the real world"
[[Haha, I'd like to see Kylukaaru exist in the real world....]]

26-37 = borderline character
"You need to dial down your character. You're hovering over the line, and you really don't want to go over. If you cross the line there is not way your character could exist..."

38-65 = IMPOSSIBLE CHARACTER
"Your character seriously needs to loose some powers... This is nothing more than an overly-powered character that cannot, and would not ever be able to exist. Dial down on the super-amazingness otherwise no one will like, or respect your character or you."
