Indax

This is an index of my projects without a proper name, identifiable by the suffix -ax. Trisyllabic names with <x> = /ks/ are preferred; bisyllabicity is a minimum requirement. I've hanged onto not using any English /ɑ/'s, even against the temptation of such good names as /bɑlɑks/.

Name	What	Where
Audimax	unused name	An auditory in Hamburg
Battlax	They start so innocently. "Y'kno, why do so few protolanguages have distinct postalveolars?"	"Battle Ax"
Betamax	Former name for Ouiqál	Obvious
Bustax		"Buster" (no specific reason)
Jabdax	A labialization sketch, dumped in Pakistania'.	The piece "Jabdah" by Koto was playing when coining the name.
Klusterax	It's got consonant clusters. Even initially. Shock, horror. (Actually, this feature is pretty rare in my schemings.)	This one's back from when the names still had some relation to the project in question.
Sahax	Wannabe Pirahã.	Broken from the first suitable Pirahã word I found containing the sequence <ax> - saha-xai, "shouldn't".
Sadabax	A West Altaic' branch.	"Saddlebacks". Ironically it's starting to seem that Sadabaxians are some of the least nomadic Altaic peeples.
Telefax	The initial idea was "/ɬ x/ as the only fricativs". Some Etruscan went in there too, and I got inspired to add implosivs too. NOT A KITCHEN SINK I SWEAR	Do you really need to ask?
Tonax	Former, or shall we say the more official name for Dork Elvish	Tones. See how these used to work?
Univax	Explained on page itself.	Mix of "Unix" and "Univac"
Wtfhax	Ack, I don't remember anymore… how suitable.	An image macro of a lion on stilts sneaking on a giraffe.
Zithromax	Yet another phonology doodle.	A tradename of some drug, IIRC; possibly influenced by Starship Bistromath

Not to be confused with: Ängrex (a temporary name as well, but the "x" is legit)
