back in the 1980's, Scientific american had a basic program that 'generated' fake english (which occationally generated a real word) and fake french, latin, spanish..
every language has some rules/characteristitcs.
t and h are a go together pair in english.. but t s is only common at the end of words, not the beginning.
q is paired with U 99.9% of time,
in addition to T h there is ch and sh and wh, but rh is rare.
E is most common vowel,
its rare to strings of considents longer than 3. (some compound words have 5 or even 6, (ghtsbr is the classic 'stumper'
--its the middle of knightsbridge))
you codify all the 'rules (and let the generater work, and you get "fake english'
change the rules, and you get fake latin or fake french or fake spanish.
