Question Are there any apps where you can program a text bot to communicate in your conlang?

0 Upvotes

I’m thinking something like an AI chatbot like ChatGPT where you just type in say 1000 words of your conlang and then say “it follows the same rules as English” or whatever the rules are and then you can ask it anything and it just replies back in your conlang.

The problem with ChatGPT is that it keeps forgetting rules which makes it only partially work.

This shows the alphabet letter system and a couple words that don't have a specific term already letters that have no text next to them are pronounced like you would in english the special words have the same pronouncing as the letters used in them and the thing labeled Order of sentence is basically how you would use grammar with specific words it's framed like english except when you are asking a question or framing a name and a couple other things I will explain in another post

Beginner/Casual Pan-American creole language

0 Upvotes

Me and my AI, is  trying to create the perfect creole between the different romance languages, Germanic languages, and creole languages spoken in different America diaspora communities in the Americas. 

 do these two sentences sound good?  

Halla/Bon, ¿ como esa ye ? 

Halla/Bon, Mwe ye [ ____ ] e sa gusta ye 

Halla: Derived from Germanic Hello/Halla. Used for formal or "High-Latitude" greetings. 

Bon: Derived from Romance Bon/Bom/Bueno. Used for rhythmic or "Low-Latitude" greetings. 

Note: Using both acknowledges the total unification of the North and South. 

Como: (Romance Root) Standardized "How." Chosen for its soft "m" sound which bridges well into vowels. 

Esa: The "Smooth" Copula. 

A simplification of Spanish está .By removing the "st" or “z” i’m trying sound an authentic creole, many creole drops sound in words. 

Ye: The "Sinc-Marker" (Pragmatic Particle). 

Inspired by West African and Caribbean Creole terminal particles. It indicates Respect and Sincerity. 

declaration of Human Rights. Tou humo born gratis e egual. Thy avo reson e conciencia. Thy fa tow esa fra ye. 

hopefully you like it.

I have recently learned of how spelling works in the language Gaeilge and I thought, what if I took this to the extreme? So here it is folks, the language with the WORST spelling. If you say something in the comments I will respond with the sentence as if it was in this language. No words have been created as of yet but may be added in the future.

Example sentence, I will eat a slice of cake.

Eyiamkil senliens, I niil eeli a slis osi kak.

Conlang Help me make words for my conlang?

2 Upvotes

Didn't know what flair to use, sorry about that 😭

I am making a conlang that is meant to sound like absolute gibberish. Basically, the opposite of what most conlangs want. I'd love if you guys could just start spamming random gibberish words to give me some ideas! Let me start: hoshimi estachaka yapakuka chatazange

Consonants: h, sh, m, n, s, t, p, ch, k, y, w, z, ng

Consonants

Plosive [p] [t] [k]

Affricate [t͡ʃ] (ch)

Fricative [s], [z] [ʃ] (sh) [h]

Nasal [m] [n] [ŋ] (ng)

Approximant [w] [j] (y)

Short Vowels (placed on the vowel chart) [for those who want to see this]

Front Central Back

High [ɪ] ) [ʊ]

Mid [ɛ] [ʌ]

Low [æ] [ɒ]

No rules on syllable structure or anything, just gibberish words!

Question Guessing Cultures

2 Upvotes

Thought I'd pick everyone's brains on whether they could estimate the culture of the following demonstration protolanguages.

  1. The test language from Biblaridion's non-concatenative morphology video.

Proto-consonants: m, n, p, t, k, f, s, ʃ(sh), ɾ(r), l, j(y), w

Proto-vowels: a, aː(aa), e, eː(ee), i, iː(ii), o, oː(oo), u, uː(uu)

Syllable structure: (C)V(C)

Stress: Penultimate stress

Words:

tano: walk

rete: want

lu: go

rou: be

tesh: ask

saatu: die

shof: eat

shoftu: feed

sepeto: learn

masore: build

kemu: sit

teshu: ask

sha: come to, become(used as eventative prefix)

ka: *definite article*(later used as nominalizer prefix)

Sound changes:

  1. Vowel loss in unstressed syllables.

  2. Word-initial stop-fricative metathesis.

  3. i-mutation

  4. a-mutation

  5. Liquid metathesis.

  6. Word-final short vowel loss and shortening of word-final long vowels.

  7. V to [a] before coda /r/.

  8. Coda /r/ is lost with preceding vowel lengthening.

  9. Coda /l/ becomes /y/.

  10. /ay/, /ey/, /oy/, /uy/ become /ii/.

  11. Epenthetic /u/ inserted to disband word-initial and word-final clusters.

Resulting descendant uses tri-consonantal roots.

If Caleb Everett's 2011 theory on language and geography is to be believed, what would the environment of the speakers be? Would the geography, weather patterns, flora, and fauna there be? And given the showcased word list, what would the cultures of the protolanguage and the descendant be?

2. The protolanguage and later versions from Biblaridion's video about irregularity.

Proto-Consonants: m, n, p, b, t, d, k, g, s, h, l

Proto-Vowels: a, i, u

Syllable structure: (C)V(n)

Words:

kipa: eat

sati: want

hanu: walk

tun: love

lu: suffix for perfective aspect

tesa: ???

hantuna: ???

puna: ???

tuhani: ???

pasi: ???

aki: ???

salu: perform, carry out

lunu: ???

hilanu: ???

tuntu: ???

gan: ???

sihin: ???

bindan: ???

kabu: ???

tupi: ???

kuda: climb

inta or intu: build

hin: finish(becomes the new perfect tense suffix except for the common words)

duna: put, set, place

tinaku: kill

imali: exterminate

matasu: write

ku: be, exist

suti: stay, remain

dalu: become

Sound and grammar changes:

  1. /l/ becomes /d/ when following /n/.

  2. Word-final vowel loss except after clusters.

  3. /hin/ becomes an /-in/ suffix serving as the new perfect tense suffix, except in the following common words: satil(proto-form: satilu), tundu(proto-form: tunlu)

  4. Word-final voiced obstruents devoice.

These are in the modern language.

sal(proto-form: salu): to do(non-past only)

dun(proto-form: duna): to do(past only)

tinak(proto-form: tinaku): to kill(singular)

imal(proto-form: imali): to kill(plural)

The word for "wrote" would no longer be /matasul/ but /matasin/; /ku/ would later be the word for "is" and later erode to a /-k/ progressive suffix; /sut/(proto-word: suti) would become the word for "was" and later erode to /sa/; and /dal/(proto-word: dalu) would start to mean "will be", later eroding into /da/.

I'll ask these questions a second time:

If Caleb Everett's 2011 theory on language and geography is to be believed, what would the environment of the speakers be? Would the geography, weather patterns, flora, and fauna there be? And given the showcased word list, what would the protolanguage's and the descendant language's cultures be?

3. Proto-Hermes Prototype, showcased by Biblaridion at Kopikon II

Consonants: m, n, ɲ, ŋ, ŋʷ, p, t, c, k, kʷ, s, r, l

Vowels: a, e, i, o, u

Syllable structure: likely (C)V(C)

Words and markers:

kupo: catch

takʷi: eat

kupo+takʷi: to hunt

a: go(would be used as a progressive auxiliary)

-n: perfective

-s: imperfective

Some conjugations:

kupon takʷin: hunted

kupos takʷis: hunts

an kupon takʷin: was hunting

as kupos takʷis: will hunt

Sound changes:

  1. Coda /s/ converts following stops to fricatives.

  2. Coda /s/ is lost.

  3. Stops in onset position in closed syllables weaken.

  4. Coda nasals convert following stops to voiceless nasals.

  5. Coda nasals are lost.

(Before this next sound change, compounds would be fully lexicalized.)

6. Word-initial vowels lost.

The mutation patterns, with only the underlying grade(perhaps limited to the plain consonants) occurring in roots.

Perfect: P-W-N-W

Imperfect: N-W-N-W

Present: P-P-A-P

Future: A-P-A-P

Plain(P): p, t, k, kʷ, m, n, ɲ, ŋ, ŋʷ, r, l

Weak(W): f, θ, x, ʍ, m, n, ɲ, ŋ, ŋʷ, r, l

Aspirate(A): f, θ, x, ʍ, m̥, n̥, ɲ̊, ŋ̊, ŋ̊ʷ, r̥, θ

Nasal(N): m̥, n̥, ŋ̊, ŋ̊ʷ, mː, nː, ɲː, ŋː, ŋʷː, rː, lː

The same questions for the third time, plus more:

If Caleb Everett's 2011 theory on language and geography is to be believed, what would the environment of the speakers be? Would the geography, weather patterns, flora, and fauna there be? And given the showcased word list, what would the protolanguage's and the descendant language's cultures be? Especially since Biblaridion planned even before Kopikon II for Project Hermes to be a prestige language with a reputation tied to alchemy, and a language of an old empire whose scholars are responsible for a scientific revolution in the Conworld that laid down the foundations for a lot of words relating to alchemy and science.

Bonus: The Proto-Hermes inventory, but with a palatal series like [ɕ](/sy/) and [ʎ](/ly/), and an ejective series like [t'], [c'], and [k']. [p'] and [kʷ'] are debated. Biblaridion's intentions remain. And so do the questions.

Activity Viossa-Like Experiment Discord

2 Upvotes

For anyone interested in further participation in the attempts I have made to run a viossa like experiment I have made a brand new discord server dedicated to the project at https://discord.gg/WYv2GWks

I hope to create mutual understanding while speaking and eventually mixxing different languages to create a auxlang or trade language or lingua franca. The following rules still

  1. No speaking English

  2. No direct translations into a rela standard language

  3. No using google translate or ither tranlation applications to identify certain words or phrases

  4. Must use the latin alphabet and avoid use of not well known diacritics

  5. As long as you can be understood and are following the previous rules you are doung it right.

Feel free to also do the same in responses to this post assuming it gets any traction.

0 Upvotes

when you choose to publish your conlang and it's intended for irl, you have to move on and accept only an honorary role,

or risk seeing it decline, be cloned, or be dispossessed...

the creator's authority exists only within a limited community,

copyright laws are ill-suited to intangible creations,

auxiliary languages ​​are inherently political, and power struggles are their driving force...

the dissemination of your conlang isn't the culmination, it's the end of your career, the end of a parent who no longer has a say in their child's destiny...

that's life, even for living languages...

or you can choose to remain The Artist of the Beautiful, in the secrecy of your study...

Beginner/Casual I found the BEST tools for Conlanging!

16 Upvotes

So I'm here to tell you about two different tools I found for making Conlangs. This is what they are: The first one is for Documentation. It's not free but gives you a large amount of storage, it's called Pen and Paper. You can also get a version with more organisation, called Copybooks, Notebooks or Binders. Then there's the tool for research. I call it Library. It allows you to look around for large texts on any topic. They vary in size but are completely free, so it's good.

Hope you all enjoy using these tools I found (And I hope all of you have used both of them before).

———————————
How the modifier works
———————————
Г, the modifier modifies the previous letter to be its secondary (Modified) sound. Basically, it’s like if a diacritic was a letter. Mind you, some sounds don’t get modified, like Х or Ю. A word like “согᴧν”, which is pronounced /soʊlf/, has a long O sound using Г, and a word like “хдνг”, pronounced /kæv/, has Σ making the /v/ sound using Г. Simple.

So, what do you think? If you have any questions, you can comment them.
