Maybe you want like.... 'ephemerality'.

How does that break down? Is it formed from other words combined, or is one base word altered?

State of change -> Changestateness

Change gives you a word for alteration, movement, time maybe.

State gives you a word for form, shape, the present.

You can break them down further now.

Forms and shapes, relates to the body. Body conveys material, flesh.

Movement, can come from walking, running.

Walking -> legs, feet.

Material -> crafts, harvesting, processing.

Now you have lots of words!

If you do it the other way round you will have a set of words that all come from a handful of basic words and so all sound the same and are bloated from using the same words over and over.

I present to you the Proxinian alphabet, with pronouns and everything, for extra woke. I had, for no particular reason, looked up why the O in the Alternian alphabet looked like the O on the poster for the game Oblivion, only to find out it was because Alternia's alphabet was just Daedric flipped upside down. Pretty funny shit. Anyway, I decided then to make a Proxinian one. I won't disclose how much thought was put into this, so it could easily just be scribbles, or very well thought out. Who knows. ⁱ ᵈᵒ

Also also, here's a poem. I will not tell you what it says, but you are free to try to figure it out.

Also also also, if you have any suggestions for what I could add to this alphabet, you are more than welcome to suggest something or make something of your own. There's an 89.9% chance I will canonize it immediately.
