Vono Cripta

Vono Cripta (Void Text) is a conlang created by Startacker. It has appeared previously in ScrungeCraft, Sludge, and the Community Server.

Star (and the few others she shares her master document with) is the only person with complete knowledge of it, requiring others to attempt translation themselves. Community-sourced reference materials can be found in the "useful links" section.

Description
Vono Cripta is a language tied to denizens of the Void.

It ultimately has no inspiration points besides vague, subconscious Latin. Many words are intentionally false friends (sound similar, but are wildly different in meaning) of English ones.

Grammar & Morphology
Vono Cripta is structured very similarly to English. Text can often be translated from Vono Cripta to English, or vice versa, without any change in word order.

Vono Cripta is not gendered. Pronouns differ based on person (I vs. you vs. they) and number (I vs. we) alone.

Apostrophe words
Words that start with an apostrophe, such as 'lo and 'le, are a special class. These words are usually words with special functions such as pronouns, and have unique grammatical rules.

Apostrophe words are always written in lowercase. If one or more of them begins a sentence, the first non-apostrophe word after that will be capitalized instead. For example, the sentence "You are good" would be 'le Meunenst yeron, not 'Le meunenst or 'le meunenst.

Some apostrophe words are modified based on possession and structure, but nothing is currently known about the modification except that it's strange.
