Pilonja is my second constructed language, the first being terugs. The both of them, along with 3 other planned languages are all in a conworld together.

Key features: vowel harmony, ergativity, lack of dictionary verbs or adjectives, perspective

Pilonja is odd in many ways, and when learning its good to keep in mind that it is odd. Many things also take on multiple related meanings depending on its use. ie, "ko" "to" can also be translated as, "en route." Many times they are used identically and context will distinguish meaning. "je," a possesive postposition can be used in either a possesive situation like, "my dog," or "I have a dog."

O fato é que mal faz 30 minutos que entramos na quarta-feira e eu já estou totalmente irritado, estressado e cansado... Fazendo listas mentais o tempo todo de tudo o que tenho de fazer (desde pagar o aluguel e o telefone até lembrar de preparar minha parte do trabalho dOs Lusíadas — fiquei com a digitação e o canto Ⅰ, e talvez palpite na introdução e na conclusão — e se formalizo agora minha “demissão” do C.A.* ou se espero mais um tempo) e me preparando para (com certeza) esquecer da metade. =P E haja paciência!... E haja organização!... Bendito seja o inverno — se fosse no verão, meus miolos torrando, já tinha dado o grito do Ipiranga e chutado o pau da barraca... =P Mas tem a parte boa de fazer grupo com a Taisa — fica mais fácil organizar tudo (além do fato de ser ela justamente a presidente do C.A., hehehe).
