Talk:Petorian (language)

Reccomendations
I know it's time-consuming, but ye really need to consider adding an IPA chart for the Petorian language. Also, as the name of your country is 'Petorio', the Latin version would be more likely to be 'Petorius', as 'Petorio' would appear as the dative singular in this case, whereas one could not get 'Petorio' from 'Petoria', which is how ye had it before. Also, ye should consider translating the Tower of Babylon and posting it on this article (it is standard for conlangs). Also, 'Standard English' is not a language family. If your primary lingustic influence is English, then you language family would be 'West Germanic' or, more specifically, 'Old Low German'. If your primary influence is 'Spanish', then your language family is 'Italic'. Keep in mind though, that Lexical influence is less important than grammatical influence. 60% of English (90% of words over two-syllables) is derived from the Italic language, Latin, but it is still a Germanic language due to its grammar.
