Throughout the process of creation, euphony and aesthetics were first priorities for me, so that it could be used in poetry, songwriting, and scriptural recitation. Second priorities hinged around clarity and ease of pronunciation. I am a native english speaker, and since this is largely a personal language, I wanted to ensure I could recognise and speak each word in a natural manner. I also wanted enough allophonic variation to allow many different speakers to read the texts understandably.

==Introduction==
This language is my first attempt at conlanging after a years long hïatus. It started in early December, 2024, when I wanted to create a semetic artlang for personal reasons. Iluhīya is mostly based off of Arabic, Hebrew and Classical Syriac, with some other languages mixed in as well, such as Akkadian. Syriac was a particularly big ispiration, and the source of a large amount of vocabulary in the language. To distinguish it from the mother languages though, I invented novel structures in the morphology and grammar. Throughout the process of creation, euphony and aesthetic beauty were a top priority for me.
