Re: What did you accomplish today?

I've changed the orthography of my conlang Yélian and fixed an issue. Before the change, it was not possible to differ between piya ['pi:ʃa], kitchen, and piya ['paia], to call. You see, while it's written the same, it's differently spoken, which I wanted to prohibit in my conlang. It's because IY i...

Re: Diachronic Conlanging open world

If I estimate right, then Teles is about 1.5 times bigger than earth. I agree that it's plausible, a planet of this size won't have a gravity which is too different from ours to create completely new forms of life.

In my opinion, the size is perfect this way.

I didn't write it for a fictive world (although I created one to let my language take place), I wrote it actually for myself. It has at the moment about 1,000 morphemes, but I create a ...

But, there must live other cultures anywhere, isn't it? So the language would nevertheless make a big change, huh?
