That's why I do it too, kind of.
More accurately, that's why I make concultures. But the only way to fully
flesh out a culture is to have a language, so the language was the obvious
consequence of the culture.
I make cultures that I like, and some that I don't like, and such, it's
all a giant experiment in thought. Or something!
