Language Name Larua Language Author Darrell Manrique Year Began 1999 Site Larua Broken Link No Site Language English Site Author Darrell Manrique Language Type fictional diachronic language Uniqueness Larua combines the analytic grammar of Mandarin Chinese with a strict VSO constituent order (constructed as a mirror image of Japanese and Ainu SOV order) and a phonology more typical of European languages. Language Sources The sound structure and vocabulary were first inspired by Proto-Germanic, but that influence is now rather obscure, and many of the more recent words are modeled on Ancient Egyptian originals. Mandarin Chinese, Japanese and Ainu inspire the syntax. Quotation Foi din ollan la harha, ganau tzunnu rau matz? Explanation Q NEG intend you garden, although still exist rain?
