<Barsuga> So far, I get the impression that the bulk of wikipedia is 1) Random people 2) Random places 3) Songs 4) Sports events 5) Organizations
That is about 90% of the universe
<Izambri> Barsuga: yes, pretty much
<Izambri> 86% of the known Cosmos is that
<Barsuga> Hydrogen, helium, sports competitions, towns in Eastern Europe, local politicians
This is the dark matter we do not see

Bad Conlanging Ideas (2020-04-06 09:03:14) :
Yes, that approach I put there is more philosophical, and the problem you comment arose immediately, even having in mind the coordinate system implied in the original post, in Bad Conlanging Ideas. That's why I suggested further expanding the lexicon with compound words; it's clear that the system is exhausted quite soon applying the basic idea.
My problem with the IPA vowel chart is not so much that the number of sounds is what it is but that I don't/won't have a language usi...

Bad Conlanging Ideas (2020-04-06 03:07:31) :
I think that approach might walk you into the domain of philosophical languages. In order to subdivide the space you need to establish boundaries, which then must become explicit vowels. Any variability is then merely allophony that can be mapped to real phonemes, and the whole point of it is lost. The phonetic realization might be within any arbitrary, non-overlapping subdivision of the possible vowel space, but those still can (and must) be labelled for communication to be meaningful. Like wit...

Bad Conlanging Ideas (2020-04-05 18:47:34) :
#326 is interesting enough. Perhaps to derive broad meanings from a single root or a class-word by changing the quality of its vowels. I could use the idea for Mintani, or another not-so-human language.
Like, for example, a class-word [i]hVggVsh[/i] "tool", in which V are the vowels to be modified. Any word that is the name of a tool will use this base, including the very concept of "tool", written [i]hëggësh[/i], for example. The ë stands for a schwa, the vowel used for all basic meani...

[quote]The gender of nouns and pronouns in the sentence is relative to the gender of the verb. So if “to be” is a feminine verb, only women can say “I am” and have the statement be grammatically correct.[/quote]
I'm already doing this one with Oksirapho, which is partly a radical investigation into sexism gone deeply mad. But I think I outdid the submitter: the feminine/natural verbs use an ergative syntax, literally...
