| Introduction | If you were to translate this back into English, you'd find that it is very different. It was difficult to translate it into Telpuilkoc. Also, note that this language is extremely polysynthetic. Each word is built around a verb. The verb has a bunch of prefixes and suffixes attached to it to indicate tense, nouns, adjectives, etc. You'll also notice there are many dificult conconant clusters. Those are supposed to be there. I had to update this because my conlang has changed signifigantly. |
