dal'qörian (pronounced: ''dal-koo-ree-yan'') is a 3 year old conlang invented by myself ([[User:Rivendale|Rivendale]]). It's basic style is Indo-European, and although mainly arbitrarily invented, many words are drawn from English, German, Welsh, Cornish and Latin. To date, the language is fully functional, with a dictionary of around 10,000 references, words and phrases, idioms, (including a small colloquial element), fully grammatical, and the language also includes around 400 'dal'qörian' people's names. All the countries of the world have also been 'dal'qöranized, (as in ''anglisized'').<br/>The language actually sounds like a hybrid of Romance and eastern European languages. Here is a quick taster:

dal'qörian is a 'rhotic' language; the letter 'r' is pronounced after every vowel. It's pronounciation is very deliberate. In fact, by and large, dal'qörian is quite formal; it has no 'slang' form, although there is a small colloquial element to it.
