I don't remember much about my first conlang except that I began perpetrating it in 1992, that it wasn't a conlang but a bunch of invented words with no grammar (I just made them to name things, with no need to make sentences), that the words had an African-Oceanic flavour and that the orthography was made without rhyme or reason.
Some of those words still exist, incorporated into some conlangs, but they were heavily redone to have an acceptable 'flavour' (appearance and pronounciation).
