Draft:Radonian language

Comment: Article could benefit from a restructure of the 'Phonology' section as it is quite long on its own but also doesn't necessarily have an overview aside from 'This is the Phonology with their places of origin / inspiration.' Could also use a page on the language's grammar and I would also recommend instead of simply using MW itself to host the dictionary of your language, you could put it on another site such as Google Docs, make it public, then use the document as a citation which would also look quite nice, in my opinion. I would recommend looking at Prsänëan language or Aethodian language from the official namespace, as they are the only good articles that were made for languages.

Radonian, (Radonian: Ρaδonίca, romanized: Radoníca or Λίnгua Ρaδonuμ, romanized: Língua Radonum), also sometimes referred to in English as Radonica is a Helleno-Italic constructed language meant to be a hybrid of Latin and Greek as an official language of the Radonian Empire. It is the fifth official language of the empire alongside English, Latin, Greek, and Welsh.

Phonology

The phonology of Radonian is intended to support the phonemes of Classical Latin and various forms of Greek. Letters were eventually added to support Ecclesiastical Latin, Old English, and Slavic sounds.

Orthography

Radonian was created as a mixture of Greek and Latin, as such it was decided to create a Hellatinic script which combines both scripts. While the primary and official script is Hellatinic, there is a secondary Cyrillic script based on the Serbian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and Early Cyrillic scripts; it also uses some Kazakh, Mongolian, and Aleut Cyrillic letters. There are official romanizations for use in languages and texts that utilize the Latin script.
