Our final #Lexember word is the game name itself! Sovála got its name from Engála, our #conlang for rabbits, and is the name of the lake in their region. The name means "Great Heart". <3 #LangTime

For the final three days of #Lexember, we are focusing on some key vocabulary for the name of the game, Sovála. Today's word is "amùghù", which means "battle" in Haughòf (our #conlang for dogs). A subtitle for Sovála is "The Battle of the Blood Water"! #LangTime

Our #Lexember word for today is "khi", which means "to cast a spell" and comes from Sarkezhe, our #conlang for cats. The cats are perhaps the most magical of the animals in Sovála, so it's a fitting word to come from their language! #LangTime

Our #Lexember word for today is one of my favorites! "Zhálá" means "to sing" in Wokuthízhű (our #conlang for mice). When multiple mice are singing, it comes out as "zhálálá", which delights me to no end. #LangTime

Our #Lexember word for today is "tshiet", which means "to defend" in Tpaalha, our #conlang for opossums. This word comes from an older root meaning "to push away", and this opossum stands ready to push attackers away with a decorative shield! #LangTime

Our #Lexember word for today is "gankò", which means "club" in Haughòf, our #conlang for dogs. When drawing these warriors, I chose to put a baseball bat in their hands as their club of choice—a nod to my dad who is a baseball coach and dog person through and through. #LangTime

Our #Lexember word for today comes from Loh Akish, a #conlang for foxes. "Kfässir" means "trapper" and is an agentive form of a verb. Foxes, being as clever and stealthy as they are, are excellent at laying traps and sneaking around the Sovála game board! #LangTime

Today’s #Lexember #Valyrian glyph is one of my favorites: havon “bread”. I love the way it looks. The collective havor is where the word for “food” comes from. #language #HighValyrian #hotd #houseofthedragon #got #gameofthrones #orthography #conlang

My #Lexember entry for today: "Àséssetikèŋóčuppépóttiipàúho," which translates to "Pour two cups of flour onto a surface." I describe it in more detail on my website: www.quothalinguist.com/2025/12/02/l.... #conlang
A nisse pouring a large cup of flour onto a table top, with a bag of flour sitting nearby. Pieces of the image are labeled with vocabulary.

The final Okoki word for #Lexember is “ẽtu” (“to gather”), from *insu. High vowels lower before nasal codas, fricatives fortify after nasals, and nasal codas drop out, leaving behind a nasal vowel (*insu > ensu > entu > ẽtu). “Ko odapo’ina ẽtudonu.” (“The squirrel gathered treasures.”) #conlang

Today’s Okoki #Lexember word is “anu” (“animal”), which is the source for the third-person singular nominative pronoun “nu” and also the 3sg subject-agreement suffix that occurs with verbs (“-(a)nu”). “Osanu mahuara” means “Animals are digging.” #conlang Video: youtu.be/SO1FGoHDMHk?...

The Okoki #Lexember word is “ãpa” (“to grab”), coming from the proto-form *amsa. Fricatives assimilated after nasal consonants and then fortified to a stop, so *amsa > *amfa > *ampa; then the nasal coda was lost, resulting in “ãpa.” “Oraba lõna ãpadora” means “The hawks grabbed moss.” #conlang
