Conlang

Braden Indianensis · Post by **Braden Indianensis** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:33 pm

So, recently, I've been working on a conlang, which mixes Romance and Germanic languages..mostly Italian and German, but I use Latin whenever I can. I thought I'd show what I've worked out to you guys to see what you think.

Some sample nouns:

Singular: Plural: English:
Caund.............................Caunden...............Dog/Dogs
Felitze.............................Felitzen................Cat/Cats
Arbaum...........................Arbaumen............Tree/Trees
Chartum..........................Chartumen...........Paper/Papers
Homme............................Hommen..............Man/Men

Hopefully this won't come out all mangled.

I bet you 10p that I can conlang a conlang better than you.

That's not fair. You CAME in the hobby from a conlang/conworld site.

I'll take your 10p and raise you 10C.

I bet you 10p that I can conlang a conlang better than you.

It wouldn't matter if you could, Chris, because you're a little punk, and anyway, I create far better portmanteaux than you. Truveritely, I do.

Don't wag your finger at me, Bill. I apologize for nothing. Not that I need to, as I was only being facetious (actually, since "facetious" means "pleasantly humorous or jocular" you could draw your own conclusions about whether or not I actually was, but that's not the point.)

21st Century Stjepan · Thu Apr 13, 2006 10:59 pm

German and Italian as the base, eh? sounds boring

How about some agglutination?

How about some Milliyetniz alman mi?

Here, hame some Manishewitz. There's a faint chance it'll make you less drunk.

What, so your saying you only post here when your drunk?! I'm allmost hurt.

Or, maybe when your drunk, your true self comes out and you WAN'T to actually post here but dont let yourself? Hm......

21st Century Stjepan · Sat Apr 15, 2006 6:44 pm

My true self does come out, but there isn't a whole lot of 'wanting' for anything involved (except maybe the comfort that can be found only between the folds of the enveloping dark vast---)

I seriously do get tired of conlangs which seem constantly to revolve around the IE centum group. If you're going to make a language that sounds like German...why not just LEARN GERMAN! Think out of the box and create something totally CRAZY!!!!

Chrimigules · Post by **Chrimigules** » Mon Apr 17, 2006 4:11 pm

Do you dare me to go outside the Centum group IE languages?

Do it. Hell, I dare you to leave IE in the dust entirely, if you can!

Braden Indianensis · Post by **Braden Indianensis** » Tue Apr 18, 2006 2:07 pm

Yes, by all means. Do something really crazy, like mixing Chinese with Coptic and Basque.

Chrimigules · Post by **Chrimigules** » Tue Apr 18, 2006 3:31 pm

I don' know... IE is so convenient in its exhaustive list of PIE roots.

Bes alti gün sonra geldi
Kara Fatma-i gazi
Nisalar kahramani, seref-razi

Bes alti yüz kisiyle geldi o an,
Kamusu hep süvari-i namdaran.

Onlarin nami var Türkmen ilinde
Kiliç belinde, kargi yollarinda.

Onlar çok kirdi düsman, döktü kanin
Sehid oldu karindasi nisanun.

O hatun kendi dahi yaralandi
Onuldu yarasi hos varlandi.

Ömer pasa olup Sumn-da kaim
Onlara gönderir cephane daim.

Singular: Plural: English:
Caund.............................Caunen...............Dog/Dogs
Felitze.............................Felitzen................Cat/Cats
Arbaum...........................Arbaumen............Tree/Trees
Chartum..........................Chartumen...........Paper/Papers
Homme............................Hommen..............Man/Men

It could sound slightly more exotic, but it's okay. Question, though... is there a particular reason why the plural of "Caund" drops the "d"? Is that a typo, or is it a rule of the language?

Braden Indianensis · Post by **Braden Indianensis** » Fri Apr 28, 2006 5:11 pm

It must be a typo, because it doesn't seem consistent with the rest if I drop the D..change to reflect this..

Post by **Shyriath** » Fri Apr 28, 2006 5:33 pm

*Shrugs* There was no reason it couldn't've been a linguistic rule... other languages have done things much more inconsistent than that. But whatever works.

I've been trying to make a conlang for Matbaa, using bits of Syriac, Turkish, and Armenian.

Mmm... Armenian.
