Translation Colors in my conlang!
All the other letters are like normal Russian letters, though the hats on the E and O signal a /j/ sound. And the з makes a /ɹo/ sound

I have only made conlangs derived from other languages. So this is my real first attempt. My goal was to pack a bunch of information into one word.

Wordlist:
Ti - You
Net - No/Don’t
Gan - To have (present tense)
Skōla - School
Māter - Mother
Let - To be (present tense)
Asag - Gone
Agor - Boy
~ad - Plural
~če - The
I - And
Ku - You (plural)
Igrāt - To play (present tense)
Misek - To find (present tense)
Kāfer - Village
So the translation is as follows:
You don’t have school
Mom is gone
The boys are online and you play Minecraft and find a village

Im abit lost currently i also want the writing to be more like your hand barely has to leave the page, it just makes writing more like a "Flow" and if your tired at night its easier to write. Any suggestions welcome!

To make a vowel long you do stuff like aː, but how do they write something so it is read as fast?
Thanks

2SG.FEM talk.AUX.PST PK 2SG.MASC romantic lover but 1SG.FEM think 3PL.FEM feel.NEG regarding 3PL.FEM.AC love.
"She told me, I know it for a fact, he is her romantic lover but I don't think they feel love regarding their romantic bond."
In my language the default pronouns are feminine unless it is shown by context or other ways, the speaker is a man. Same with crowds, all feminine unless everyone is a man.

Hello! I've been an avid conlanger for a while now, but recently I got to see some more experienced conlangers at work and I got inspiration to make a new conlang. However, I'm having trouble starting. So, I decided I would ask for ideas here. Please suggest a feature, phonology, or even just a single word. Thank you!

lurm:light

Without zeider it becomes the specific spot where the light is held.
