Creation and Usage Notes
| As in many natural languages, the root of the word for "language" in Méníshè is a root meaning "tongue." What I like about how we treated this word is that both íshè and íníshè are human-class nouns, but while íshè ("tongue") never carries the overt noun class prefix, íníshè always does. It's often the little touches like these in conlangs that I appreciate most because they reflect some of the beautiful quirks of natlangs.
