gobbledygook

This package aims at randomly generating human languages.

Language generation

The language is generated in layers:

Phonemes

Each language will get a random set of vowels and consonants.

• 4 to 20 vowels
• 5 to 30 consonants

Morphemes

Morphemes will be made using a series of phonemes.

Morphology

The language will be either isolating, fusional or agglutinative
