On February 26, 2024, I reached the 85,000-word milestone, meaning I would be obligated to reach the 87,500-word milestone by February 26, 2025. Well, I've already reached it. I added all the words from my Mensinghi file to my Kankonian dictionary (well, I added their Kankonian translations, but you...

Here's a song parody I wrote when I was 17. I found it in an old notebook in my go bag. "You're the Pits" At song-creating so adulating, I never was inclined When writing music, I always find Lyrics kind Slip my mind My sole objective is the invective -- my pen is never stuck -- So if the ...

What should it include? You might want to check out my grammar of Kankonian, which runs to over 150 pages as a Corel WordPerfect document: https://khemehekis.angelfire.com/basic.htm Ask yourself: how would Ruykkarraber tackle each of those example sentences? (Of course replacing vitzakhs (a Kankoni...

I added all the Shanuvian culture words to my Kankonian dictionary. A few of them, such as "Hitan", "kona bird", "kisa", and the Hitan mythological monsters, I had already had, but most of the place names and languages, the names of the religions, and words like "d...

Should I add the words "nectarine" and "amaranth" under the More Plants section of my Landau Core Vocabulary?

Wait, each one has *one* Toki Pona definition? I thought the person was just a hardcore Toki Pona fan and defined all their words in Toki Pona for fun. If it's a randomly generated relex, congratulations revoked. I suggest we update the requirements of the FrathWiki page. Any idea for how to rewrit...

Right, but the list that you get when you go to the download page is a list of the individual words that have pages, not a list of the definitions on those pages. Searching for "doughnut" gives me S: (n) ring, halo, annulus, doughnut, anchor ring (a toroidal shape) "a ring of shxps i...

Over the last four days, I've been working on a list of nations for my human planet Shanu, in the Lehola Galaxy. I've also decided what languages are spoken in each country (I've actually done a lot of work on two of the tongues, Hitan and Kolothan), and I've named the major cities (including the ca...

To be fair, Classical Yiklamu is just a cipher of English with its definitions taken from WordNet, which at the time had about 90,000 words. I dont consider it a full language because it's strictly tied to English ... even to the point of having the word for "bat" mean both an animal and ...

After spending decades on top, Classical Yiklamu has been dethroned from its position of largest conlang lexicon by a conlang called M̄av̄ī, created by someone who calls himself Imjustadudeontheinternet. M̄av̄ī has 100,000 words, all defined with a Toki Pona definition, and was created for the sole ...

Are yinrih based on DNA?

They absolutely have drug culture. It's prevalent in Neoshamanism especially. I've mentioned before that humans confuse the yinrih's lack of libido for innocence in general. There are more than enough drug dens around Focus to make up for the nonexistent brothels. Since they don't have a "buil...

Just so you know, in English-language political science and 'intellectual' political discussions (i.e. newspaper columnists and people at universities, not people at a random bus stop in Tottenham), "democratic" and "authoritarian" are definitely not antonyms. . . . The common a...

"Boys Like You" by Fancy Hagood ft. Meghan Trainor & Ariana Grande -- a song that uses "like" as a preposition
