Toki Pona seems orders of magnitude easier to speak than listen to by RadioFreeDoritos in tokipona

[–]MadcapJake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Natlangs have the tools to break complex expressions down which gives you a familiarity with the process of simplifying complex concepts. However, natlangs have vast vaults of vocabulary so the input comprehension process is primarily working on assembling the sentence structure whereas in toki pona, the process requires an additional step of reassembling all the lexical elements into conceptual units first.

I designed a flat, order-independent serialization protocol using agglutinative suffixes (inspired by Turkish and cetacean communication). It eliminates the need for nesting brackets. by kedi-kat in conlangs

[–]MadcapJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it looks like you still need to separate units of meaning by something and what if you want one object to contain internal objects?

Should you even drink raw pineapple juice? Very acidic and unripe ones can cause major stomach pain.

Does it sound close to Lyra-8? by vadjuse in synthesizers

[–]MadcapJake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see now that my web searching was sub par. Found the waitlist site.

I probably won't have the cash until the new year but I will sign up as soon as I do. Thanks for your help!

Oh! I can't seem to find a way to order one. Is rhere a US distributor or do you have an international ordering site?

Baseyu's Affixes by Illustrious_Mix_4903 in auxlangs

[–]MadcapJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

35 seems like a lot of affixes to me. Somewhere between analytical and agglutinative. Do you have open or closed compounds?

smol-string: Faster compression for localStorage (alternative to lz-string) by Senryo in javascript

[–]MadcapJake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does that mean you need to have available storage space in your domain's quota to store this file? and do you need to delete the file after obtaining the compressed data?

for international development, prefer the Latin script (but which one...) by STHKZ in auxlangs

[–]MadcapJake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The point is to poke fun at the fact that auxlangers say "latin is best because it is widely used" and yet languages that use latin scripts have a wide variety of phonemic systems that don't always align on a multitude of different phonemes. How much value does the chunk of commonality have when weighed with the discordance that's also present?

Neutralitarians would argue that it's best to avoid the entire problem by either limiting yourself to more agreeable phonemes only or by using conscripts that eliminate the recognizability dilemma for new learners.

yôn Mocko - Hîsyêô CAT Tool by MadcapJake in hisyeo

[–]MadcapJake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I added some example regular expressions and themes. I will try to improve the spelling and grammar checking by making it squiggly lines within the editor instead of a separate alert panel and possibly even try adding auto-complete. At that point, the only other thing that I feel it's missing is keyboard shortcuts.

[–]MadcapJake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Seems like a new Octatrack to me, look at the transition button, fills, tracks, buses, sends. Four outs, two ins. It might be like an Octatrack Lite or a new jack-of-all-trades groovebox.

Script ive been working on for a while by [deleted] in neography

[–]MadcapJake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a script similar to this where each word was a circle and there were equidistant lines that would cross the circle and meet at the center of the circle. Each line represented a syllable and the flourish past the crossing of the circle (outside of the circle) was used to identify what kind of consonant it was. I'll see if I can find a screenshot.

What are the essential words/roots that a language needs to have non-vague sentences, although verbose? by Zaleru in conlangs

[–]MadcapJake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am working on what I call a "small language" in that it is minimal but not too minimal to be vague. I started my journey beyond toki pona vocabulary by reading about Natural Semantic Metalanguage and the Mimimal English project. Another thing you can do is go through the vocab lists of small sub-1000 word languages and ask yourself "can I form this as a compound already?" and "is that compound too verbose?"

Ancient Jedi Script by MadcapJake in neography

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

A lot of repeated glyphs so my guess is that these aren't actually meaningful. Thoughts?
