Conlanging background

In the very beginning of my conworld (during high school time), the Dakiuzuiam spoke a language called Dakiuz, its German name being “Sincranisch” after their main deity Siancra. Sincranisch was identical to Kabukanisch (the former version of Asiul), the Asiuluiam’s language, a fact that both Asiuluiam and Dakiuzuiam were oblivious to since they did not speak with each other. We thought that this was very funny.

Later, I thought that it did not make any sense, and decided that they should speak a language related to Asiul, but so different that the genetic relationship was not visible on first sight. I had also fallen in love with Hungarian by that time and decided that the new Dakiuz should be modeled after the Hungarian language, at least phonologically. Apart from this restriction, nothing is really settled yet regarding Nyirvón. The language’s name stems from a former draft that I later discarded, but until the language is properly fleshed out, that will remain its name.

Phonology

As I said above, Hungarian-like.
