Creation and Usage Notes

I often wonder whether some of the principles I use for sound change for Trigedasleng are viable (one of the main tenets being that irregularities in children's speech wouldn't be ironed out as efficiently as they are in our world, due to the breakdown of society), as well as the sound changes themselves. On the latter point, I'm quite gratified when I hear my daughter produce the exact form I created for Trig. This was one of them. She produced [veˈtɔp] exactly. It was awesome.
