Purpose:
The assignment is to create your own language, starting with the inventory of contrastive sounds (phonemes),
and some information on how sounds combine to form syllables.
This document should be read alongside:
• the Project Template (which you can rename and save and then use to build your answers). This is what
you will upload to Canvas for the assignment.
• the Project Sample, which shows you what a final project might look like. The samples, though, are of a
real language the professor is researching. Your sample will be of your own invented (constructed) made-
up language, which should not look like English, or any other language you know.
