For the two or three people who read my previous topic about a minecraftian language for the testificates, I've decided to redo the language in light of the alphabet used by the enchanting table. Any conlanger will tell you that starting with an alphabet (especially one that is simply a 1-1 mapping of the latin alphabet) is a horrible way to start constructing a language, but whatever.
So far I've been thinking of making a simple "naming language" for the spells, and applying sound changes to the words to create a daughter language for the testificates. If it helps, the language of the spell book would be like Latin, and the language the testificates speak would be like Spanish. I might also mess with the alphabet a bit to replicate how the Laitn alphabet went from all uppercase to two cases in the daughter language.
I'll have to mull over some ideas before putting anything else in writing.

Ciphers for the Latin alphabet are not the same thing as languages.
