The last conlang topic I couldn't find, so I'm making the topic again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Constructed Languages. They are a wonder. Share your conlangs here!
---My Conlang---
Prefixes/Suffixes
-eye: to signify that the rest of the word shows part of a word meaning the emotion that occurs when English people say the word in English. (letter before suffix must be not a vowel!)
-peye: same as eye, but the letter before this suffix must be a vowel.
-aya: a suffix meaning that there is no defined emotion, and instead it means the rest of the word is part of a synonim for that English word.
-paya: same as aya, but used with a vowel before the actual suffix.
-now/pow: for verbs, present tense.
-lef/elf: for verbs, past tense.
-aien/payen: for verbs, future tense.
-ane/pane: basic emotion words. Like -eye and -peye, but the emotions are basic.
Pronouncation rules
- e or a at the end of any suffix is silent. e.g. Hapeye is pronounced "Hap-ey"
- y in a suffix can be pronounced "z" when surrounded by "a". e.g. Nigopaya is pronounced "Nigo-paz" but Hafupaye is still pronounced "Hafu-pay", because there's not an A right after the Y.
Rules
- "Sl" is replaced with "Sal"
- a 26th letter, "-" is introduced. It's like a space inbetween words, but the speaking gap is slower and it does not mean a new word.
Italics = not exactly a word
Dialects
No dialects!

- Takeaway: Remnumaya
- Multiply: Multnumaya
- Divide: Divnumaya
- Power of: Multtimenumaya
- Divide by 0: Divnomzererraya
- abs: Positinumaya

- Any healthy food: Goodehunaya
- Any unhealthy food: Badehunaya
- Any game controller: Playobjaya

Feedback is wanted.
Oh, and by the way, althrough this might not be creative, it's both complicated (like gibberish) but understandable in a way.

if i make a conlang, i borrow from Greek and Latin and add some creativity to it. And to make this conlang realistic, you should add exceptions to the rules. Like E is always silent at the end of a word but it makes a sound at the end of anemone

I don't want to spend hours --- wait, it's not just English with suffixes.
And with complicatedness, it is actually understandable in a way. If I made it any simpler, trust me, the words wouldn't be able to be pronounced.

@Next reply:
Oh yes, sorry for forgetting that, I added some now.

@Garr8:
With Latin characters, this would be even more complicated -- I don't want to upset jackrulez.
But, you're right with exceptions, I agree with adding them.

Wow this is so primitive
"Quet ut?"--How you?--How are you?
"Et abs. Ut?"--I good. You?--I am good. Are you?
"Esp, Et abs."--Yes, I good.--Yes, I am good
I need to make up words for 'am', 'are', 'is', etc.

Is there just one verb ending for each tense? Or is it like Spanish or Esperanto (or other languages) where there's different ones for first, second, and third person as well as singular and plural?

i made a conlang for a fantasy language, i just started it though. TL and RR are letters.
The words are fairly easy to learn. I borrowed from Nahautl (Aztec), Spanish, and a little from Latin. And some words i completely made up. Here are some of my words:
tlatoani= emperor
tacahul= eagle
vulcanocha= volcano
arcanatl= god/ deity

Good question
I hadn't decided
I think just one verb ending for each tense though, for now, while it's still being developed

Are you including infinitives for the verbs and adjectives, adverbs, etc.?

Psychobabble is more like when you use a lot of ridiculous jargon in a sentence to either disguise the fact you don't know what you're talking about or just to confuse people with meaningless dialogue on purpose
The happenstance of said psychobabble completely crucifies the dynamics of the stimuli pertaining to psychological human emotional machinations

This discussion is irrelevant to the original topic relevant to pseudo- lingua known to us as conlangs, or fictitious laguages that are borrowed from existing or once existing lingua with the rules altered to form a fictitious series of words called conlangs, as i have stated earlier.

Your inductive reasoning has rendered my recognition of the irrelevancy, and I acknowledge the prolific interrogative issue of our interchange of colloquial speech. I will indeed desist.

Hm, this should be the most understandable (as in more people I think know this than another 'conlang'):
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
class Main {
private String getThis() {
return ("Hey, this is a language made from english");
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Main myself = new Main();
words = myself.getThis();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, words);
}
