The language

Post by Elliot Markham »

While Sebastien's language is certainly creative, there are some pecularities with it which I find less the plausible as will as slightly outside of what would be considered typical logic.

Moreover, he has not defined a complete language yet per se but rather a pronunciation guide, and this is where the peculiarities originate.

For instance, the letters do not correspond to the sounds that would be expected. That might be good for a cypher, but it makes no historical sense in the context of typical language development. We simply would not expect the letter k to sound some way other than k, unless of course the sound had undergone a transition to a hard g or something else that is anthropologically common.

Thus there will be some changes made to the language soon, to make it more historically plausible and logical. In addition to this, the language will be expanded. If the admin could unlock the thread that Sebastien made for the language, so that new posts and modifications can be made in it, that would be most welcome.

Regards,

Markham
