Looks good so far. Reminds me of the indigenous tongues of Soith America.

Wow. I didn't even realize this.

Check out https://cbbforum.com/viewtopic.php?p=328837#p328837 -- I've updated it to include words #87,000, 88,000, and 89,000.

This comes from my AI art, right?

Spiders, Vosem Chart users, pianists, and Thomas Jefferson rejoice: I have just reached word #88,888 in Kankonian! My word was shuyeslavambio , meaning "architexture". It comes from shuyes (across) and lavambio (work, as in a work of art), since an architexture is a theme that spans an art...

Some parodies for 4/20!


"Hey, Marijuana!"

"Tokin'"

Glad to've been of help!

To the first one, I will admit that it’d be a bit… interesting with the table setup I have currently, but it is possible to make the table set up clearer as to what meanings the Zareian words are used to convey, and thus allow for both ‘had’ and ‘sani’ to mean ‘be’. I don’t really know how to do so...

What are the differences between sani and had ? Also, by the A in "ask", do you mean /a/, the vowel in the song "Alouette", halfway in between the A in "cat" and the A in "party"? There is no difference between sani and had . Thank you very much for pointing ...

Using a word gen, having troubles deciding what order of frequency my phonemes should be in. Learned that phoneme distributions tend to follow a Yule-Simon distribution pattern. So I have a bunch of questions whose answers i think will give me insight on what to do: 1) Would sonorants/resonants be ...

EDIT: fwiw, I'm not sure whether we need a new thread every time somebody wants to complain about an argument they had on wikipedia or the like! The reason I created a new thread was because the primary purpose of my last post was to find out how to say "if there, not here" in Latin. You ...

I am doing a write-up on a text on logical fallacies published in Ciladian in Ancient Ciladia (a country that once existed on Kankonia). There's one I'd like to give a Latin name to, in addition to its Ciladian name, but am not too sure about. This fallacy I want to call a Classical Latin translatio...

This thread is for questions involving Latin -- the tongue of Ancient Rome. The scope covers both Classical Latin and Vulgar Latin.

Wow. I was wondering if you were from South Africa, since your screenname had an Afrikaans ring to it.

Well, I assume you mean that the different projects that you and I have worked on likely reflect our different preferences as conlangers. [:)] Not just preferences, but styles . For one example: when you created Hannaito words for last year's Lexember, one of the things I noticed was that every wor...

Interesting. Are interspecies relationships uniformly accepted in the Lehola Galaxy, or are there some cultures where they're frowned upon, or forbidden? Really socially liberal cultures like the Kankonian or Shaleyan wouldn't have any problem with them . . . the galaxy as a whole when it comes to ...

Today I came up with the concept of tyashusial orientation for the Lehola Galaxy. Tyashus is the Ciladian word for "race", and it's used in modern Kankonian to mean what species of sapient someone is (human, Grey, Domehead, ilti, lef, wama, etc.) (The Kankonian word for "race", y...

The user formerly known as "shimobaatar". (she) Congratulations on your new name! Is it pronounced like "zymurgy" (with /ai/), or like "Zima" (with /i/)? Caber is going to need a new word. You're referring to łímo ? That’s in CT. Common Caber has śimo ‘friend’ and śimo...
