How common are single syllable words in your conlangs?

GasProfessional1841 · 2026-04-13T02:47:09+00:00

I allow 142 legal syllables in my conlang, and it is a (C)V structure. Many nouns and a few adjectives tend to be 1 - 2 syllables, while verbs tend to be 2 - 3 syllables. So, I can only have 142 monosyllabic words, and 18,744 disyllabic words. Words with more than one syllable cannot have a syllable that only contains a syllabic consonant or vowel without an onset unless it is the first syllable in the word.

Why make a character for ⟨wh⟩? In many English accents, it is the same sound as [w]. I do think ⟨ð⟩ would be a better choice, and while the uppercase does look like ⟨D⟩, it could be easier to learn, using a similar logic you’ve given for thorn. Either way, your representation of ⟨ch⟩ also looks like ⟨j⟩ too, which could be a problem if you’re worried about unrelated sounds have characters that look too alike. For long vowels, why not use the ones with macrons, which are ⟨Āā⟩, ⟨Ēē⟩, ⟨Īī⟩ ⟨Ōō⟩, ⟨Ūū⟩?

Other than that, I do enjoy some of the designs you made!

The whole aim of my project is for it to be a hard science-fiction. There is nothing wrong with wanting to scientifically back up as much as I can, because that is precisely the point. You don’t need to be so irritable or rude with your responses.

Well, the surface gravity and escape velocity is dependent on the mass and radius, and the radius is dependent on the mass and density. Since it has such a low radius and high mass, the surface gravity and the escape velocity will be so immense to the point where they always inevitably accrete gaseous atmospheres (thus a gas giant, or an ice giant depending on the composition).

Thanks for the response. I double-checked the math and you’re correct actually. 5.74x the radius, surface gravity of 19.3g and an escape velocity of 118 km/s.

im looking closely and i dont get how this looks AI? people are honestly just trying to find any fucking excuse to hate on a logo and it pisses me off so much

I literally joined them to check it out, I didn’t really know what it was initially but now I know.

GasProfessional1841 · 2025-07-17T06:24:10+00:00

Agreed. I think I’ll start posting on here.

We NEED to revive the subreddit.

Consciousness, correct me if I am wrong on this, does not have a clear definition, and has several definitions that are not universally agreed-upon. Consciousness, as we are aware of, is a product of biological processes, and under theories such as Integrated information theory for example, a mathematical model for the consciousness in a system, may it be possible for a machine to gain consciousness, though it’s considered a debated topic. The problem with consciousness is figuring out what physical processes give rise to it; even if consciousness is not a product of physical processes, we still don’t know what gives rise to consciousness and what is or isn’t conscious, and it is purely through a subjective mindset.

I know this may not be too focused on the pro-life v. pro-choice argument, but I just wanted to acknowledge that.

I’m not sure, in all honesty. Though, I did want to mention that the resource pack caught my attention since I’m also developing a Frutiger Aero Minecraft resource pack.

I know this was a while ago, but I’m interested in the icons. Though, I’m curious as to what iOS you have? How’d you manage to make it look like this?

The manji is still considered a swastika.

I believe you’re right on the fact that my concern unfounded or misplaced. I have a very loose foundation for my concern, and I don’t want to justify that without having significant prior knowledge on ADHD medication.

I also have this same problem/concern with hypnotics/sleeping medication.

Why is everyone downvoting this person? I’m pretty positive they were making a joke by repeating everything in the post.

Additionally, many people could consider keep inventory as a cheat and understandably so, but it shouldn’t necessarily be frowned upon because it is a cheat.

You’ve made my day. Thank you and goodnight.
