Epajan is an isolating conlang.
Phonology
The Epajan "alphabet" is actually a sort of abugida, similar to Devanāgarī script (used to write Sanskrit and Hindi). Each character represents a consonant, and diacritical marks represent vowels preceding the consonant (this is contrast to real life abugidas, where the vowel follows the consonant).
Grammar

Number
There are no plurals in Epejan, so the words for a single and a plural of something are the same.
Mood
There are a number of grammatical particles used to express the "mood" of the sentence (i.e. if it is a command, a question, if the speaker is unsure of something, etc.).
