Creating a language can prove to be incredibly difficult. Considering there's thousands upon thousands of words to create, it will take a lot of time and patience, unless you, for whatever reason, consider a bunch of random characters (e.g.: odijgeruhb) to be a word. Another problem of course is getting it to catch on; you could spend forever working on a language, only for it to be forgotten about.

Personally, I had an idea for a language that is made entirely out of prefixes and suffixes. I haven't really thought about it much, however.

ex

ja — agree; agreement (from Middle English yes)
na — disagree; disagreement [from Lation non)

So a word beginning with ‘ja’ would mean that it is in agreement with something; ‘ja’ by itself would simply mean ‘yes’. Similarly, a word beginning with ‘na’ would is in disagreement, with ‘na’ by itself meaning ‘no’.

si — one (from Latin singulus)
bi — two (from Latin bini)
te — three (from Latin terni)
qu — four (from Latin quaterni)
pe — five (from Greek penta)
he — six (from Greek hexa)
se — seven (from Latin septem)
oc — eight (from Greek okta)
no — nine (from Latin nonus)
de — ten (from Greek deka)

Digits join together for higher numbers (e.g.: quse = 47)

as — up [from Latin ascendit)
de — down [from Latin descendit)
re — left [from Latin reliquit)
ju — right [from Latin jus)


That's all I have for now. I can't quite concentrate enough to make any more currently.
The post side from you is also about languages.
Also, what's zero?

Hm. Didn't think of that. I guess…

ci — zero (from Arabic cipher)

I'm currently creating a language (if you didn't already know), but it isn't quite working out. I don't even have a name for it yet. My language uses its own alphabet (with some letters taken from English), so I can't exactly post in my language. But I can post the English equivalents. The letters:

Vowels:
A - pronounced “aa” as in “base”
a - pronounced “ah” as in “apple”
E - pronounced “ee” as in “see”
e - pronounced “eh” as in “bet”
I - pronounced “ii” as in “lie”
i - pronounced “ih” as in “kit”
O - pronounced “oo” as in “boot”
o - pronounced “oh” as in “tow”
U - pronounced “uu” as in “universe”
u - pronounced “uh” as in “cut”
ua- with c/k, pronounced like “q”

Consonants (same as English unless noted):
b
c/k - acts like K unless followed by consonant, then acts like C (see “ua” above)
d
g
h
j
k
l
m
n
p
r
s
t
v

Words so far (English equivalents):
salo - hello/hi
leksik - word/words (no plurals in my language)
tolI - I/me
tul - us/we
jol - you
masin - him/her (with prefix)
mavin - they

Prefixes:
sE - female prefix (used with masin)
ki - male prefix (used with masin)
bit - before
ket - after

Note: mavin and jol can also have a prefix, like kimavin would translate (roughly) as “the guys” and sEjol would translate as “you girls”.

Here's mine: it's called wakanese.

It has all the letters of the English alphabet, and four more:

Chach - makes a /ch/ sound. Will be represented by #. Goes between c and d
Shash - makes a /sh/ sound. Will be represented by $. Goes between s and t
Thath - makes a /th/ sound. Will be represented by @. Goes between t and u
Thar - makes a /thr/ sound. Will be represented by &. Goes between v and w

NUMBERS:

0 - Nat
1 - Eno
2 - Den
3 - &ee&a
4 - Duk
5 - Ne (pronounced “nee”)
6 - De (pronounced “dee”)
7 - Wud
8 - Osk
9 - #a$
10 - $a@
20 - Da@
30 - &a@
40 - U@
50 - Ne@
60 - De#
70 - Wu@
80 - Osa@
90 - #e@
100 - $ene#

Numbers are combined in different place values. For example, 81 is osa@eno and 73 is wu&ee&a.

I'm making a new language but the letters are different and you have to put a dot between letters. Rule:
a=k q=p

I once had an idea for a language called Otecim.

Special Characters
ä, pronounced “wah”
ë, pronounced “eah”
ï, pronounced “ee”
ö, pronounced “eh-oh”
ü, pronounced “oo”

Basic phrases
Hello= Jommu Excuse me= Oydati Ni
Goodbye= Hüfcai Please= Qumieti
Yes= Zit Thank you= Vojepol zua
No= Pu Help= Jimoq
What= Shev Need= Pïf
Who= Shu Want= Xepov
Where= Shisi Say= Tez
When= Ship Walk= Xemol
How= Jux Run= Sap
I/Me= Ni Have= Jewi
You= Zua Scratch= Todosevodoj
Is= Ot Bless you= Comitt zua
Are= Esi Dog= Fuh
And= Epof Cat= Dev
Or= Up Cow= Dux
But= Cav Sheep= Tojïq
The= Vojo Horse= Juasi
That= Vojev Duck= Fadol
This= Vojot Goose= Hüti
An= Ep Happy= Jeqqua
A= El Sad= Tef
If= Og Angry= Ephosa
To= Vu Scared= Todesif
1= Upi Tired= Vosif
2= Voxu Taxi= Vewo
3= Vojosï Hotel= Juvim
4= Guas Car= Des
5= Gowi Food= Güf
6= Toy Drink= Fosopol
7= Tiwip Eat= Iev
8= Iohojov Not= Puv
9= Popi Hungry= Japhosa
10= Vip. Thirsty= Vojosova
20= Voxu-vip Good= Hüf
21= Voxu-vip-upi. Bad= Cef
100= upi-japofosif
479= Guas-japofosif-tiwip-vip-popi
1,000= upi-vojuatepof
10,000= vip-vojuatepof
100,000= upi-japofosif-vojuatepof
1,000,000= upi-nommoup

Grammar
Most sentences are structured like so:
Subject: Date/Time: Predicate: Place
Adjectives always come after the noun they describe, adverbs come after their verb, etc.
The sentence “Yesterday, the carefree girl ran fast in the park” can be translated to “Vojo hosom desigosii (subject: the carefree girl) zitovisofez (date/time: yesterday) sap'el getov (predicate: ran fast) ot vojo quesol (place: in the park).
Sentences do not have to have all of these parts.
The suffix -el shows that verbs are in the past tense.
Run= sap
Ran= sap'el
Say= tez
Said= tez'el
The suffix -it shows that nouns are plural.
Scratch Cat= Todosevodoj dev
Scratch Cats= Todosevodoj dev'it
Two Scratch Cats= Todosevodoj dev'it voxu (remember, the adjective comes after the noun)
The suffix -em indicates possesion.
You= zua
Your= zua'em
Me= Ni
Mine= Ni'em.
Questions are defined by an ”a“ at the end of a sentence, pronounced ”ah“. Questions that end with ”shev“ (what), ”shisi“ (where), ”ship“ (when), ”shu“ (who), and ”jux“ (how) are considered questions by default and thus have no ”a".

What is your name?
Zua'em peni ot shev?
My name is ShootingStar12.
Ni'em peni ot ShootingStar12.
I need help.
Ni pïf jimoq.
Do you need help?
Zua pïf jimoq a?
Who is that?
Vojev ot shu?
Is she your friend?
Toji ot zua'em gosoipof a?
How do you do that?
Zua fu vojev jux?
I like doughnuts.
Ni moli fuahojopavot. (fwah-awj-op-av-aught)
Do you like doughnuts?
Zua moli fuahojopavot a?

Another thing which isn't mine. I really like it though. It's more of an alphabet than a real language but whatever. Called Elian. Has some possibilities to be used more artistically than regular writing, because of how the rules are defined.

I created a language called potato. Potato is an extremely simple language.
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
To convert a phrase from English to Banana, first remove all captials.
the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
All instances of “the” become “a”. Commas get replaced with and, and Full Stops (periods, I'll use full stops because I use British English) get removed. Purals get removed.
Input: Bananas, Milk, Cheese and The Eggs.
Output: banana and milk and cheese and a egg
All double letters become single letters. All numbers are removed and replaced with specific letters along with non-alphanumeric characters. All adjectives get removed and verbs go before the noun. There are no pronouns.
Then, convert it to binary!
01100001 00100000 01101010 01110101 01101101 01110000 00100000 01100110 01101111 01111000 00100000 01101111 01110110 01100101 01110010 00100000 01100001 00100000 01100100 01101111 01100111 
Also, the 0's and 1's get converted to…
0 = .
1 = %

Masculine- He
Feminine- She
Etc.
Basic Words:
Me- jego
You- vusie
One- Mono
Two- Bina (Bye-nah)

Six- Hectan
Seven- Septad
Eight- Octon
Nine- Nonag

Words have varying etymologies, like English.
(i.e. Rubefruct is apple, or red fruit.)
Grammar is Yoda-style most of the time. For example, “I see an apple tree” would be “Mono dendris de rubefruct jego occul”.

This is my new language: Genning
1=uni
2=bi
3=tri
4=quad
5=pent
6=hex
7=hept
8=octa
9=ri
10=yu
0=ning
if you want to do eleven, its ten and one. If one ends in a vowel and the other starts in the same vowel, remove that vowel, so eleven would be:
yuni. twenty would be 2 and ten: biyu. a hundred would be a one and then two zeros: uniningning (yooni ning ning) a thousand add one and three zeros. Ok, write two fifty six:
bipenthex
I=ha
see:jaun
you=ju
me=hau
when=et
where=ki

were=kin
met=hafy
apple=kunini
pear=peran

860 minus 6 is 854
octahexning ninun hex yuna octprntquad
That is with the equal sign. 860-6=854

GRAMMAR
If you want to make a plural, like Women instead of Woman, add a ea at the end.

Geol
This language has been overhauled as of 27/04/15.
This is speaking about Northern Geol. If you want to learn Southern Geol for use in the Southern Hemisphere, swap all N's and S's.
Constructed, compact language based on compass directions. It's based on time like sunrise, day, sunset, night, but with directions thrown in for fun, and confusion of Northern Geol with Southern Geol.

Alphabet
  • N – meaning no, detriment, question, night.
  • E – meaning you, hello.
  • S – meaning yes, benefit, statement, day.
  • W – meaning me, bye.

Structure
A phrase in Geol is composed of four or five Geol letters.
  • first: describes who did stuff, E for ‘you’, W for ‘me’.
  • second: describes what s/he did, S for positive action, N for negative.
  • third: describes who this was done to. E for ‘you’, W for ‘me’.
  • fourth: describes when this was done. N for ‘night’, E for ‘sunrise’, S for ‘day’, W for ‘night’, can be omitted.
  • fifth: describes whether the phrase is a statement or a question. N for question, S for statement.
Example: wsen means “do you benefit me?”
Another example: eswds means “I benefit you in the day.”

Numbers
Geol uses a base 4 number system with R, U, L, and D, representing the non-compass directions of right, up, left and down respectively.
  • R = 0.
  • U = 1.
  • L = 2.
  • D = 3.
  • UR = 4.
  • UU = 5.
  • UL = 6.
  • UD = 7.
  • LR = 8.
  • and so on.
