You're not. There are actual fictional languages that are constructed at the syntactic level instead of just as a series of shallow modifications to an underlying English sentence. This is a neat little project and dead-on for what it needed to do, but you're right in that it's not a whole language.
There are fictional languages, like Klingon and Na'avi and a raft of others, but they take more than a day and some Python to do right.
