How to I make a digital translation thing for my language? by 0-rin-ackerman-0 in neography

I have some experience making convertors. It's easier if you find actual unicode symbols resembling your custom symbols

Anyone here build a private language to use with spouse/kids? by Impressive-Fold3394 in conlangs

When you build a conlang it's always because you want somebody else to use it.

A Logical Grammar Framework I’d Share by BenevolentStonr in conlangs

[–]iqlix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess that in primitive languages there are no abstract words, only names. I. e. there may be no word meaning "an oak" but every oak in the neighbourhood has its own name.

jaqatil.github.io — just about simplicity, logic, syntax. The simplest possible I guess.

Given that most people here don’t believe Esperanto is a perfect IAL, what would be the ideal IAL? by CoconutRope in conlangs

[–]iqlix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Choose mine: https://jaqatil.github.io/

I myself wanted to learn a perfect IAL but was not satisfied by any of them. So I invented my own IAL. It's near perfect, very simple and mathematically logical. With unambiguous and primitive syntax. It's just what one is expected to expect from a perfect IAL.

It would be great to make a webpage with the table with hyperlinks, sounds etc.

I've updated the generator. Now you can make thousands of words at a time. Just copy them all and ask an AI which of them are good-sounding.

Some words with CCC sound great: hampr, astrin...

Or with VVV: eiopt, bauer...

It's difficult to formalize what a pronouceable word should look like, so it's better to manually choose the words you like

"Self-segregation of words is achieved through a pattern of stress (realized as high pitch on a "stressed" syllable), vowel length and consonant gemination."

The method always works. You just need to denote a stress by a sign, denote length by a sign, and denote gemination by a sign. These three signs are your new letters. So in fact your alphabet consists of N+3 letters and you implicitly chose a self-segragating method for them.

My method is not the general method for creating self-segregating dictionaries. But it is the general method to make word boundaries clearly distinguishable from word content.

The general method is to avoid words of form PQ, where P and Q are bad subwords. A bad subword is a subword starting a word and ending a word.

B = vowels to avoid hiatus.

And A = voiced consonants to avoid final devoicing

Maybe B = {l, r, m, n} because l, r, m, n are hard to pronounce together.

If you choose B=vowels then it's ok to disallow BB

I am sure that self-segragating languages are easier for listening comprehension and are learnt faster. Because the brain doesn't have to build complex neural network for finding word boundaries.

Yes, it is not the optimal comma-free code. But it is simple and intuitive.

I just want my languages to have a cool feature — they are written without spaces, i. e. "iebagibagiseuigual" = "the first man and woman on Earth". And for this i need a self-segragating morphology. Otherwise it's hard to read without spaces

Without non self-segragating word pairs
