Popular science description
I wrote book with the rules of one of the world's languages: Kalamang, spoken in the east of Indonesia by 130 people. I describe the sound system, how words are formed, and how one makes grammatical sentences in Kalamang. I also compiled a simple dictionary, and gathered video recordings of people speaking (including translations) in a corpus.
