Re: The true collaborative conlang. read page 2

I'm against antropomorphising them too much. They shouldn't be 'humans' (antropomorphic cats) evolved from felidae, as humans evolved from apes.
I think all the fun is language and civilisation of domestic-like cats.

Re: The true collaborative conlang. read page 2

I propose not so many phonemes, but retroflexes and pharyngeals are ok.

I think that could be human and cat civilizations coexisting, coevolving, living in mixed-population territories. Cats are more civilized, but are still cats.

Re: Q&A Thread - Quick questions go here

Also, how can a daughter lang evolve complex clusters compared to the proto-lang? It seems easy enough to simplify them to make them easier to pronounce, but how can I make the syllable structure evolve to be more complicated? Maybe something like: kanūru -> kanurŭ -> kanur kīturi -> citŭřĭ -> citř...

I vote for catlang.
Meow.

BTW, I once suggested a catlang with four phonemes: /m/, /i/, /a/, /u/. :D

How can cats' individualism do influence on semantics? How can their purring do influence on phonology?

Re: Arithmographic Fun!

oh nice, but do you use additive system? it's better to use multiplicative for prime numers, but then multiplication is easier than adding: 2: du 3: ri 4: dudu 5: fa 6: duri 7: se 8: dududu 9: riri 10: dufa 11: lo 12: duduri 13: ku 14: duse 15: rifa 16: dudududu 17: pi 18: duriri 19: ha 20: dudufa d...

Re: Favorite Phoneme!

/æ/ is very often in my langs, till I don't like it.
I like mild sounds, eg. central vowels, palatal and labial consonants.

Re: Po Polsku

Ja też! Miło znaleźć drugi członek, który uczy się polskiego. drugiego członka (ożywiony, nie mówisz przecież o części ciała :) ) albo lepiej: drugiego użytkownika ( użytkownik = user jest po polsku częściej używane niż członek = member - to drugie znaczyłoby bardziej członka jakowejś organizacji)....
