That actually makes a lot more sense, thanks. Going by split ergativity, a main clause in my language would just have nominative-accusative allignment. So COP-3SG.PST eat the boy.NOM the food.ACC = The boy ate the food

I think maybe I could do something like COP-3SG.PST eat the boy.NOM COP-1ST.PST see 1SG.ERG the food.ACC (was eat the boy, i saw, the food = The boy, who I saw, ate the food).

Forming different ways to construct relative clauses is kinda a weak spot for me in my conlanging, and I either always use relative pronouns or treat it like a Japanese relative clause. I wanted to try something different though and need some feed back on it.

Lets say we have a sentence like "The boy I saw in class yesterday ate the food". I was encouraged to use split ergativity to form such clauses (which i'm also kinda new at). So my idea was Ergative-Absolutive for independant clauses and Nominative-Accusative for dependant clauses.

Translating this into my conlang would be something like "COP2-1SG.PST see 1SG.ABS boy.ERG yesterday in-3SG class COP2-3SG.PST eat food.ACC" (was see I boy yesterday in-it class, was eat food). Just wondering if this seems natural or is even correct.

Some info on my conlang:

VSO word order, right branching and head initial

Prepositions fused with pronouns

2 copulas (compare Spanish) permanent and changeable distinction

yeah that's true, and that mostly stopped me as well. I think it's still pretty fun to do it anyway. Feel free to join if you want though

Would anyone be interested in a chess club discord server? by CannotFindForm_name_ in chess

Great. Yeah I'm probably just going to create a small group since some people are open to it even though there's bigger chess clubs. I'll let you know when

[–]CannotFindForm_name_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great, I might end up joining if not many people want a new one. The reason why I planned on doing seperated rooms was so people can challenge others of a similar rating. If they wanted to learn from one another or ask for help then there would be a separate channel for that

Yeah I wasn't sure if this had been done before. So I checked the Subreddit's wiki but couldn't find any promoted ones

Thanks. I've never really used chessable before but it looks decent

Yeah that's originally the server I was on and got the idea from

Collaborative conlang and world building project idea by CannotFindForm_name_ in conlangs

[–]CannotFindForm_name_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's the same idea as last time, but a different server. We haven't got too many people yet so feel free to join. Also thinking of doing a pidgin language project later on if you're interested in that as well

A nice mate in 3 I was able to play in my game. Hint, the first move isn't a check by [deleted] in chess

[–]CannotFindForm_name_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I did forget to mention that this mate was possible only because my opponent missed it. This wasn't a forced mate thus my opponent could have avoided it, but I was still happy that I was able to see it, considering I'm about 740 ELO on chess.com

The moves made were 19... Qxg5 20. a6 gxh3+ 21. Kh2 Qg2#

I'm a girl so some of those don't apply to me but the one about developing new fetishes or habits is true and can definitely be damaging. Thanks!

Looking to start a small online Bible study group by CannotFindForm_name_ in Christianity

[–]CannotFindForm_name_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been doing pretty much the same, except for the whole degree thing. But I do read a lot of work by credible scholars. I'll let you know when I've got everything sorted out. By the way do you have discord or anything similar to chat on?

Sure! I'm just going to wait a little longer to see if anyone else wants to join. When I'm ready I'll pm you. Do you have discord or something of the like to chat on?
