Himalian Language

[Darvince]

why only specific situations do you want this to become as bad as english

[Hellpotatoe]

why only specific situations do you want this to become as bad as english

because its pretty
Say, use ii in word-end and í elsewhere
Or sideways turnways vice-versa

[Xriqxa]

or upways ī

[Darvince]

or maybe I was contemplating being like Turkish and having I ı and İ i

[Darvince]

[Darvince]

it has come very far since early September when I was forced to figure out a bunch of grammar for school, which launched Himalian into a fully productive language from a phonology sitting around.

it’s a feeling i got - gut inferential
i heard about it - hearsay
i saw it - visual
i heard it - auditory
i felt it in the air - rough
i knew it - knowledge
it overwhelmed everyone’s/my senses - near certainty
it was obvious - close certainty
i felt i could touch it - atmosphere inferential
a random idea i had - conceptual
a brief conception - weak inferential
i had a thought - mind inferential
it must be true - assumed

so much evidence

Lexicon can be added when needed.

[Darvince]

i'm beginning to draft a new doc, it will be the final version and for now will probably only contain a really long section on phonology

[Darvince]

i should redo the aspects to bring them in line with the present level of knowledge i have

[Darvince]

redid aspects, wörking on redoing moods now

[Darvince]
