Interesting, especially in the case of French I'm curious how you managed to
fit it in.

Of course! I can't formulate any question based on the above, but I would
surely like to see what you made. Start whereever you like.
I would suggest, BTW, that you give your language a name, at least a temporary
one. It gives a language some sort of extra personality, and it facilitates the
discussion. But of course, that's entirely up to you.

Needless to say: if you have any questions or uncertainties, don't hesitate to
toss them into the group.

Welcome again!

Jan
