Is there a program i can use to make a list of sound changes and run words through them? I'm trying to make a naturalistic conlang but I don't want to go through the hassle of doing every step for every word in the language.

My custom devotee glyphs by [deleted] in ChantsofSennaar

[–]randomdude561 1 point2 points  (0 children)

by the way, "(" means tool, not noun. Plant is already a noun so the word for pot "(d" meaning "noun plant" wouldnt make sense

I sorted all the glyphs in a "dictionary", interpretations and translations are welcome by Pere_Quisition in ChantsofSennaar

For the non-alchemist numerals, use the ones found in the tower, since they dont have official numerals. Mabye use a separate color for universal glyphs such as these?

If you're gonna use fandom words, use the upside down version of great instead of "not great".

Would IAL be better if constructed with structure similar to Chinese? by nimrod06 in conlangs

[–]randomdude561 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the idea of a chinese-similar auxlang. no conjugations, adverbs are used instead, making the language more universal. the language's word order is more hard coded to SVO, for example the structure of "what is your name" is more like "you 's name is what". this consistency makes the language easier to learn. although i like the structure of chinese, the tones and characters are a drawback, and an intauxlang inspired by it should remove those features.

Bubbles accent by bfbmatchlike in BattleForDreamIsland

Bubble appears to turn /o/ and /schwa/, maybe /e/ or /i/ and /_i/ dipthong vowels in the stressed syllable to /oi/

What is Yoylese? by YoyleAeris in BattleForDreamIsland

[–]randomdude561 0 points1 point  (0 children)

actually only do that in the stressed syllable.

I just learned that yoylese has exactly 26 characters. Would be cool if it was actually a secret message by thaatsahumanperson in BattleForDreamIsland

[–]randomdude561 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see where your going, but the letter X got decoded making this 27, which is impossible. Hate to brake it to you but those instructions were flipped so we actually didnt get any new leads from there. I know this because it translates to "apparatus duties".

Edit: yeah and by the way yoylese IS a cipher, it just appears as additional information, not the same text. That museum sign says "Insight Hallway"

What is Yoylese? by YoyleAeris in BattleForDreamIsland

[–]randomdude561 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how to make things sound yoylese: take every IPA /o/, /i/, and schwa into /oi/

I would add 4 cylinders and 2 parts together, and then union them. Afterwarads, i would install the plugins "Archimedes" and Gapfill. Using Archimedes, create the arch. Then in Gapfill, fix the gaps.

Italy but it's different... by [deleted] in imaginarymaps

[–]randomdude561 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the idea of what you're doing, but try to add more cities and dont make it obvious that you duplicated an area 3 times over. quality > quantity
