Just a place to put all of our languages if you want to define them and stuff, compare between nations, discuss, etc.,.
Soleani - alejvff akkelk kiyzyx kiirisaxnaer. (Spoken in Solea and Rift Auspikitan, New Pegasopolis, and Ihpqalik-Aolejk)
Auspik - aeljuf akelk ir kyzissk ven kyersynaxr. (Spoken in West Auspikitan, to some degree Eyrkqit and Auspikitan provinces of SKA, and the second language of Several Well-Known Corporations)
Soleani is noticable by higher concentration of consecutive consonants as compared to the Auspik language.
Yes Soleani/Auspik = nation adjective, nationality, and language

There's Upper Soniarian and Lower Soniarian. The pink is Equestrian.
The colors that are similar; red, yellow, green in this case, are just dialects or something. They're all related to each other.

where the actual fuck are these earth languages all coming from

And put soleani/auspik instead of korean.
Yeah, no.
Considering I'll probably never actually develop the language I don't think anyone should use it because they won't know how.
-
random idea:
when irc bot reads a message then it will generate a corresponding auspik-sounding-word and append it to an array/list so that it can translate the word to auspik vice verse. and then store the array in a text file or something somehow.

no i don't care about issaggan as long as it isn't saguan, also it should be about 30 different langs that are related to each other...
-
NO. Issaggans are staying Saguan. You know why?
Just because the Issaggans have a different culture from the Saguans doesn't mean they should be a separate species. Look at Earth for example. There's cultures from Bantu to Maori to Portuguese. All these cultures consist of humans.
Or, if you want them a different species because of coloring, look at domestic cats and also people. People are varied on a scale from almost black to very nearly white, and we're one species, are we not? Cats can have all sorts of patterns from calico to pure black to tabby, and they're one species.

<Kalassak> "he says 'hi' and he greets using darvincian"
<Darvince> ah
<Kalassak> dár̀vinsakąsali = dár̀vinsani (darvincia/darvincian) + 'kasali (from okkasali, meaning "other speak")
<Kalassak> you may notice that the descriptor (darvincian) is actually before the main root (language)
<Kalassak> proper nouns tend to invert normal soleani word construction order
<Kalassak> instead of language-darvincian it becomes darvincian-language
<Kalassak> also seen in kapunaki = kapu (word) + naki (array, order)
<Kalassak> whereas it is an "array of words" it is constructed such that it becomes "word array"
<Kalassak> naki kapu -> kapunaki
<Darvince> akute
<Kalassak> or kapuna which... doesn't really mean anything
<Kalassak> it's derived from kapunaki and it just means the soleani spoken language
also revised the soleani keyboard making the word 'dár̀vinsakąsali' able to be typed with ease by pressing:

preliminary universalis world languages map (may get some isolates scattered around later)
Pink - Amalthean languages
Purple - Degëq'so languages
Red - Saguan languages
Orange - unknown or Frdška/Jāramūi languages
Green - Himalian languages
Note on Frdška/Jāramūi: I have Jāramūi in the wordgen thread, it might be a descendant of Himalian or I might make it its own language. If it will be a descendent of Himalian, Frdška languages will be the ones in that area, or Himalian/Degëq'so languages will increase in area into those regions.
-
kateŋkwei is probably going to be an isolate of some sort
-
what about toňá kàtw

The causes of similar word order are usually due to areal interaction and being in the same language subfamily (i.e. Germanic or Indo-Aryan). Also that map is so old because I did it at school where I don't exactly have access to .pdns

it's going by plurality rn, you can edit it to add those (but maybe the bla colored stripes will be smaller to indicate that it's not the typical in-home language)

given (primary color is the underlying plurality, secondary color is the language spoken around town with others)
-
maybe outline it with the secondary color instead... a bit more accurate

Sikkels everywhere!

inb4 blaxian uses a modified version of kapunaki
-
blaxian should pull a cherokee
they should adopt kapunaki abugida as an alphabet
-
I'd like to see it, but I'd like something that's simple and efficient to write, with one letter meaning one sound and working like an alphabet with left to right writing.

syllabaries take up less space though, and depending on your definition of 'efficient'. . .
I don't have my own definition of efficient.
Learning one unique, complicated symbol for each word isn't very efficient and it isn't for typing on a keyboard either, and I think that more than makes up for the compactness, so I go for an alphabet.

soleani uses an abugida - each character is a large base which represents the consonant, and there is a small vowel marking
in soleani's case, this gives rise to the circular indentations which 'hold' the vowels.
pretty efficient if you ask me
syllabaries are more complicated: unlike in am abugida where 'ka' and 'ke' look very similar, they look entirely unrelated in a syllabary (like katakana)
-
bla: I am actually trying to learn kapunaki (because reasons) and it is not one symbol:one syllable. An abugida is basically the same as an alphabet, but there is a space somewhere in the symbol where the vowel goes (in kapunaki's case, a dot, a vertical line, a horizontal line, an up-opening semicircle, a circle, an up-opening almost complete circle, and a right-opening semicircle are the vowels) however there is a separate symbol for letters in the coda (so ta and at are different symbols, i'm referring specifically to the t's, t is one symbol, a is another symbol, and -t is a third)
-
demonstration
-
the codas are based off of the initials, but generally lose the large tail and are simplified
btw 'y' is a left chevron like « but single or <
i might be updating the vowels to be based off lunar phases and stuff since most can already be related and i can add the sonorants n, ng, l, r

no it would just mean the symbols look like simplistic represenations and those phases would have single vowel names
instead of a new moon it'd be called 'a' and a full moon is 'u'
-
I think Soleani looks cool and creative, but I don't really want a writing system where you put wovels into consonants.
I would've liked to base Blaxian off Soleani or other languages in the region, to show some kind of traces of common ancestry for the languages as that'd be realistic, but I also have my own ideas for how Blaxian should be, so I don't really want to just follow other people's languages that I haven't had any influence on.
-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finno-Ugric_languages eh not that realistic, I mean there's probably random word resemblances due to areal interaction (languages in similar areas may have higher resemblance than ones far away, even if they are in different language families)
-
I'm just saying I'd like an alphabet where wovels and consonants aren't merged but are separate symbols. Consonants are also separate symbols (I'm not sure about e.g. X etc., they'll probably end up being merged).
I didn't really intend to start a long discussion about languages, I'm not very interested in languages.

yee

I made a random phonology that anyone can take if they want https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wGriEE0ndcrZVQgIh0SGlTkt-DOdRhdIiZpbuiJpXq8/edit#gid=479814086

waht the voiced
-
well as far as i know they're allophones of each other in languages that don't distinguish ie /f~v/ /s~z/ /x~ɣ/

Alumikai
The northernmost surviving language of the East Serkr languages, Alumikai is an endangered language in the Aeridanish mountains. It has many grammatical features and is very compact.
Verbs
Alumikai has:
Two voices (active, passive) - s, [default]
Two moods (desire, need) - á, io
Two aspects (imperfective, perfective) - l, [default]
Three tenses (past, present, future) - z, o, palatize last consonant
Three genders (masc. neut. fem.) - a, e, i
Three persons (first, second, third) - []*, t, v
Three numbers (singular, dual, plural) - [default], m, n
+clusivity u(number) = exclusive
* First person is same as gender. First person goes where person is.
They are arranged in the order:
(root3)-(voice)-root1-(mood)-(aspect)-(person)-root2-(gender)-(number)-(tense)
Verbs have 2-5 letters as their root. Root1 = first letter, root2 = second letter, the 3rd, 4th and 5th are placed in order at the front. If unpronounceable cluster occurs:
a)move nearest vowel to inbetween cluster
b)if double, add e on front. ff -> eff
vr - eye
verz - seen
vro - seeing
vŕ - will see
vero - i see
vermo - us two see
verumo - us two see
verno - we see
veruno - we see
vetro - you see
vtreo -> vetro
vetron - you see
vtreno -> vetrno -> vetron
evvreo - they see
evvreno - they see
-

the language is on a reservation near a lake in the northernmost mountain range that runs parallel to the northwest coast

maybe it was intentionally left vague

yeah so you couldn't find where they live and force them to speak aeridanish even in the home

no that's just the right amount

are yoka ci and pionséri and maybe others related more distantly i.e. germanic and romance in indo-european

It seems like you people want your languages to be as complex as possible. Kol.
i wanna do this now except i could just recursively define everything and then make it impossible to form sentences because the simplest one would be longer than the entire universe in time to say
-
repetition is not complexity
-
no not repetition, true complexity (ie literally every ambiguity is taken care of and marked morphologically)
-
but you said "just recursively define everything"
-
yes also that
every morpheme will have a sentence in the language describing its purpose at a level which can be understood by a non-linguist, and these sentences will involve morphemes, thus every sentence has infinite length
-
are yoka ci and pionséri and maybe others related more distantly i.e. germanic and romance in indo-european
haven't quite decided either sprachbund(?)/very early split

wow very multilingual like indonesia

how do you even make something like this. It's pretty interesting.
One thing I worry about making canon is that it won't make sense so I just avoid doing the whole thing (which is probably not a good idea and a huge creativity crusher)
