As previously stated, I simply posted this from another source.

And hear them. It'd be great to hear these languages for further immersion.

Amarrad was created by Horatius Caul I think, and almost all of the work on developing it has taken place on the OOC Backstage forums.
Napanii is older and I'm unsure who started it. Give me a while and I will find the pdf file I have with all the words in.

Found them. Amarrad can be seen in full here, and Napanii can be found here.
Hope you all enjoy these, and find the format a little more useful than a flat list

Hey!
Glad to see someone found Amarrad, I use it myself however it is worth mentioning, I think that it isn't designed as a fully fleshed out conversational language. Its in-universe reasoning for why it isn't translated by our translator modules is that it is so ancient and beyond being spoken at all anywhere.
Rather it is something to pepper your dialogue with to add flavour and immersion (perhaps your character wants to show their erudition and so says hello in Amarrad, or you use Amarrad to name your ships, or when exclaiming 'My God!' you say it in Amarrad instead, etc.).
So with that ashalagram

I thinking the same can be said of Napanii, they're not really intended for people to hold full conversations in (partly because the effort involved in learning a completely fictitious language could be better spent elsewhere), rather just a way for people to add flavour to their speech.

For anyone designing languages, there is a really cool language generator you can search. Basically you type in up to 3 letters or numbers for each english letter, and then you can easily translate it because every letter will have another letter for it.

Ok now interesting how like Jove language.;)

Not sure what the point is in reposting the old Amarrad glossary. Without context it just looks like gibberish (>implying it's not). For anyone interested, I'd suggest following the link Kala posted. It's also in my signature.

I know a few words were lazily lifted straight out of some languages, but I don't think those were any of them. Just a case of accidental synchronicity.
