The Ro language, but with backwards word formation.

In Ro, words are built letter by letter on a large category system. Citing Wikipedia, For example, all words starting with "bofo-" signify colors; the word for red is "bofoc", and yellow is "bofof".

Here we have the opposite. Let's say all inanimate nouns end with "-s", which then get their gender and number defined by a vowel, "-V-", which then gets a specification of what is the nature of the inanimate noun, starting with material, specified material, and so on until there's one last specification to the word at the very beginning of it.

In theory, this means that "sima" means "color (-a), red (-m), slightly unsaturated (-i), dark (-s), when "sida" means "color, green, slightly unsaturated, dark".

We can also toy with the phonotactics, saying that consonant clusters are disallowed BUT double consonants are allowed to intensify the meaning of some particular letter (ssima = color (-a), red (-m), slightly unsaturated (-i), very dark (-s + -s).
