I want to make a particular language that adapts to the story. And the language has to have x and y and e characteristics for example.

Is there a protocol to follow on the process of making a language for the sake of a story? (I don't talk about making a complete language with grammar and alphabet[okay maybe alphabet]) But on a simple way to make it believable.

I'm not sure if the question is clear, if not please comment so I can improve it.
