Let's develop a language. Unnamed for now. I would suggest something like 'Alternata' for the name, but then again we don't know yet what this language will be like, the name should be like the words in the language.
First, we need to decide what languages we base it on and/or borrow words from.
Second, whether each sound gets its own letter ('cat') , whether most sounds are done by combinations of letters ('que'), whether some letters have two separate sounds when they are pronounced, ('I'), or there is a mix of the three. Probably a mix, but which of the three would be more common.
Using these two initial things we will develop the alphabet, which should be basically the Latin alphabet with a few letters added or taken away, because Chinese, Russian, and Arabic are overrated.
Then we will make a vocabulary of the language.
