I'd like to point out that it isn't anywhere near completion, no language ever is, and 5 years is very very very very very very very young for a language. Emphasis on the very.

Well I wouldn't personally say that for a fictional language, really...

Fictional implies fake.. It is a constructed language made for a fictional movie. A fictional language would be something like Jabba the Hutt's language (utter gibberish).

Well, for languages like this (only 3 I know of: Elvish, Klingon, and Na'vi), I would consider 5 years to make it like a "teenager". :P  :D Younger than the others, but old enough to hold its own for now.

I'd rather count only the time after its public release, because anything can happen to it before that.
