Hey, the Y chromosome is not a giant piece of garbage.
It's a tiny piece of garbage.

OH fuck, color blindness is x-linked, but the second copy prevents it from expressing (typically) in persons with 46XX karyotype. There do not seem to be any common Y-linked traits, probably by the Y chromosome is a giant piece of garbage.

[quote Morrígan, Countess]Sounds a bit like a friend, I think he had red/green, but it was atypical in some way. Pesky Y-linked traits.[/quote]
Yeah. I do rather dislike the non-double X-linked traits more, but I suppose that goes without saying.
PS: just so it's clear, initially I meant Asperger's. Then I realized that's probably not what most people are going to think of first, so.

Military uniforms of your concountry/ies (2014-10-16 15:44:45) :
[quote Torco, Conversational Speaker]iiuc Safirians have more than two arms whereas hoomins and halfies have two, right?
are safirians, as the name suggest, dominant? cause if so, i'd expect the uniforms to be made with more arms in mind and then adapted to two-armed people, as opposed to these which look rather dibrachiocentric. [/quote]
Safir have four arms, yes, and half-safir do indeed have only two arms. Safir are indeed the dominant sapient species of Daia; this uniform only d...

The image already on the page should be just fine. It is the universal symbol for magic in the Salenzian world. Each triangle is one of the elemental schools.
As for the paragraph:
Magic on Maikros is powered by mana, a sort of field that mages draw from to do things like create fire, heal others, move hills, bend space, etc. There are three kinds of casters: studied, intuitive, and innate, in descending order of knowing what they're doing. There are also two ways to cast magic...

Kala grammar (2014-10-16 14:09:58) :
TBH, I've never been 100% clear on the meaning of "free variation"; I always thought that meant unconditioned, but I feel that I've seen it used in a way which excluded that possibility.
After doing some quick searching, it seems that my initial impression is correct, and that it does count as allophony; that sort of basic thing is probably better to put in the inventory, since there isn't much to it. Save conditioned allophony for the allophony section itself.

Kala grammar (2014-10-16 14:02:46) :
NB: the text based phoneme inventory has this:
"Where ~ appears, it indicates free variation between phonemes.
Affricates: [b]ts[/b] – /t͡s~t͡ʃ/, [b]tl[/b] – /t͡l~ t͡ɬ/
Continuants: [b]s[/b] – /s~ʃ/, [b]h[/b] – /h~ɦ/, [b]l[/b] – /l~r/"
So would that even be allophony, really?

Kala grammar (2014-10-16 13:58:42) :
Exactly.
As [ʃ] in most positions but as [s] when ajdacent to <ts>...that may be a better summary of it. Thank you!

Kala grammar (2014-10-16 13:47:59) :
Yeah, I just mean that the passage could be read to suggest that <s> represents the phoneme /s/ in some positions and /ʃ/ in others, but I assume the intention is that /s/ occurs as [ʃ] in most positions but as [s] in others.

"a weird orthographic convention."
I guess you could say that as [s] and [ts] are dentals and [ʃ] and [tʃ] are palatals...
