This is a great post from Kristen on a language generator that can be used for us fiction writers, especially those in scifi and fantasy!

Iāve talked about my fascination with language before, but sometimes writers need a little help creating words that make sense in their nascent worlds. I recently found something that streamlines that process.
Vulgar (pardon the terrible name) is a constructed language generator. The generator creates fully realized languages; if you were truly ambitious you could learn some of them. The program attempts to mimic real languages, so there are patterns to the words that develop. For instance, in 50% of generated languages, the word for ātongueā is the same as the word for ālanguageā, and words often share roots as is the case for:
pson /pŹon/ n. paint; v. paint
psopru /ĖpŹopru/ n. painter
Iāve played around with the generator quite a bit and am highlighting a few sample languages below.
