How the world's most complicated language works.
There is such a thing as trying to cram too much meaning into a word. The very name "ithkuil" is a headache. And again I have to ask: why are pronounciations given using a notation that only linguists know? What is "/iθˈku.ɪl/" supposed to mean to me? "ith-coo-yil" is something anyone can understand, so why isn't it used?
