I'm making an actual list of words and tenses that I will upload

Shivarians seem very excitable.

The phrases sound good to me, and I can understand German pretty well (just not that fluent speaking or writing it 'cos I never need it).

'mi' sounds more Italian to me, or is it based on Russian as well? And 'fjiller' more Danish, but what do I know? In any case it's probably not bad if you're drawing from more than 2 languages, 'cos almost all modern day languages are a melting pot of different languages.

Can't guarantee the native speakers won't mock you or the Russians won't take you to the Gulag though, but who's afraid of that when you have an army of plastic Shivarians by your side? Fjille euar! ("Shoot them!")

Being a Russian myself, what I see here is mostly German. To balance things out more towards Russian sounding, I suggest using some more "сука блядь" as a starter

In all honesty, though, I don't care how it sounds. The fact that you want to go as far as to make your faction speak their own language is pretty amazing as it is.

Yeah, this is showing some serious dedication.
