I had some thoughts about how conlanging might not be very accessible for blind people. Trying to fit what I wrote on tumblr over here is difficult so I figured why not just drop the link here. www.tumblr.com/sombra-conla...

Okay continuing from where we left off. Once I have the basic idea for my #conlang I then define the phonology of the language, that is how it's pronounced, how it sounds. Just a few quick notes before I show you the phonology I came up with.

I've been working for the better part of a month on a list of every 1- or 2-letter language name. If your conlang(s) has a name that's only 1 or 2 letters long, let me know at pollasena@conlang.org & spread this to other conlang communities where reasonable #conlang docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

I've decided to start a new #conlang! Unlike my other langs I'll share my whole process for making this one here, on tumblr and on my webbed site conlang-guide.bearblog.dev/guides-make-... so if you think that'd be interesting or fun feel free to follow. I'll try to make things beginner friendly.

hmm... maybe I can make some sort of demon language... the idea's calling to me for some reason #conlang

I don't always want to share all the info on my conlangs cause most of them feel somewhat private, so I'm thinking of starting a new one with the purpose of it being something I share a lot more transparently on here. I could even walk u thru my process for how I make languages typically.

Today is the third episode of #HouseOfTheDragon, so for fun I thought I’d do a post of some of the dragon names we’ve seen thus far in #highvalyrian (both in the orthography and in the romanization). #conlang #hotd #asoiaf #dragons

I just launched a permanent page for Crown of Crows, my literary fantasy set in a world with two fully developed languages descended from Irish and creolized Spanish. New map, a free glossary, and enough etymology to see the bones in the broth of the world. axonfirings.com/abou... #Fantasy #Conlang

My first proper foray into Afroasiatic-level reconstruction just came out in BJALL: "Disentangling Afroasiatic *t-morphemes: No path from middle to imperfective" brill.com/view/journal... Sadly not open access, but I'd be delighted to send a copy to anyone who asks me for one (myfirstname@gmail)

Today’s #Valyrian glyph is ñuqir “ash”. I feel like this is a word I’ll never forget. Kind of seemed obvious when I coined it: ñuqir. Can’t say why. #conlang #language #highvalyrian #asoiaf #hotd #houseofthedragon

Good time to mention that some of my current conlangs are inspired by The Legend of Zelda, in big part Ocarina of Time, so maybe I should share more of that here soon

I'd be so annoying about it too, I'd be one of those people trying to learn it and shit, I would be so happy

I've been working on my merfolk #conlang #Cwihlur and I decided to share a bit about it since it's still #MerMay ! Following the prompts for quothalinguist's #ConlangYear (I am way behind) I'm figuring out how possession works in the language, so here it is

I'm falling a bit behind on #ConlangYear but I really wanted to have a name for my merfolk #conlang already, so I spent a few hours thinking about it and experimenting with different forms until I came up with a name, it's #Cwihlur [ˈk͡ǀʷi.ɬur] it just means merfolk voice/language but I like it

sometimes I go thru periods of excitement with my hobbies followed by long pauses, I haven't worked on my conlangs in a while now, but I'm glad that I haven't lost my excitement for Cwihlur, one day I'll be writing full texts in the merfolk tongue and I'm still so hyped abt the idea!

Version 1.0 of the Grammaticon is now online! This has been in the making for over eight years. Quite a few of the entries are still preliminary, but I hope to expand and improve it over the coming months and years. Comments are welcome! An intro text is here: dlc.hypotheses.org/4316

despite making slow progress with my main #conlang I've also been wanting to start a new one lol still unsure what I want it to be, might try another a posteriori one, maybe I'll try another very fantastical one, maybe smth very experimental, I got lots of ideas, we'll see!

isn't it messed up that we're two weeks into #MerMay and I have not made any progress with my merfolk #conlang? I'll make sure to write at least one post this month about new stuff in the language, maybe I'll get to make more than one if I manage to get back into the swing of things
