Surely I am the *only* person who is blown away by this. But anyway...
KAGLA: this word means "to spatter with filth" in Cornish, but it's also the name of a central character in my fantasy setting. He's a legendary goblin chieftain...
I also use bad Cornish in this setting, so "spatter" is ideal!

Sorry for this bad picture (it's at 10x), but I love gibbons.
I don't know if "gybbonyow" is correct. I can't find it in the dictionaries.

I'm quite pleased with what I've done as a solo learner. I'll miss Memrise when the community shuts down, but nothing will stop me reaching fluency.

Making a course for the elvish langage I've been building for years.
I really like Deckademy's style: it works (more flexible than Memrise (and no abandonment of the community), it's more user-friendly than Anki), and isn't ruined by shit attempts to overmonetise)

Cornish learners! (...and you!)
There is an easy way to get words into your memory, especially if you're "no good at languages".
A few minutes a day looking at flashcards (ideally with audio), and you'll build your ability with surprisingly little effort.

This kind of sums a language I've been constructing for a long time, for use in my fantasy fiction and games (as well as a personal code, of sorts).
