Re: (L&N) Q&A Thread - Quick questions go here
Can anyone direct me to some useful information resources regarding phonological, morphological and syntactical differences amongst dialects within the UK, that is available online and free?

Re: Eternal tense?
I don't think that every language regards time as something linear. I also do not think, that most languages have 'normal' tense systems, if that means past vs. present vs. future. You could use something akin to spatial deixis, maybe like present vs. non-present. If you take the circular more lite...

Eternal tense?
The portrayed speakers of my conlang believe in a kind of circular, eternal time. Is there any 'novel' way I could incorporate this into my noun's or verbal morphology?

On being a noob... And on my phonology...

Today marked the day where I changed, for the third or fifth time, both the sounds within my phonology, and well, equally with that phonotactic constraints. For now I´ve given my...
