Where can I find information on Jigwa by R.Harrison?
I am working on a somewhat similar project Lingwa de Planeta
www.lingwadeplaneta.info
I am very much interested in Jigwa but neither grammar nor vocabulary I
can find.

Jigwa was only a sketch. It was never developed in detail. When I get
home from work tonight I will see if I can find the article about it.

I am glad to recieve reply from the author! Well, sketch it might be,
but it has its own place as a project with an original idea, and
everybody speaks about it if you ask them about conlangs with Chinese.
I am looking for naturalistic ways of including Chinese, Hindi and
other languages into a conlang. I wonder what is the share of Chinese
in Jigwa.
Thank you very much, I'll wait for the article and any other info.

Am I the author? I wonder. My brain worked differently in those days.
When I found the articles and read them today, I was surprised by some
of the material.

My language, Ceqli, happens to include a lot of Hindi and Mandarin, due
to its phonology rules. It's at
