Music and language (2016-09-29 23:49:08) :
I haven't done this exactly, but I've thought about the "conversion" you're talking about. A few years ago, I toyed with the idea of converting Italian to music, specifically, each syllable = a measure. Since Italian has a relatively simple syllable canon (s)C(l,r,j,w)V(N,Gem), it seemed pretty straightforward at first, but quickly it got complicated. So my advice is, come up with a relatively simple phonemic inventory and phonotactics, something that could easily translate to the diatonic scale...

Music and language (2016-09-29 17:49:52) :
Solresol is in the right vein, although from what j know of it, it's woefully inadequate (still, better than I can manage atm!).
The music aspect is not hugely problematic for me but the "conversion" as such is. "Conversion" in this case meaning that it would, like solresol, hopefully be communicable in music as well as a traditional spoken/written form.
It does not need to be naturalistic, auxillary is fine. Really the less irregularities the better when it comes to music.&nbs...

Music and language (2016-09-29 16:31:44) :
Sup and welcome to the site. I don't know what you mean by "converts easily to music" -- there are examples in real life of spoken languages that are encoded as purely "musical" information in the form of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whistled_language|whistled languages]. This is basically just a lossy transmission mode for the underlying, normal spoken language though. Conlangs based in some way around purely melodic information are also a thing, the most well-known one being [https://e...

Music and language :
So I am very new here. I did a lot of phonetics at uni but everything else I will need to finish reading up on (still reading through the kit).
I would like eventually to make a language for a roleplay setting that we are doing for fun but I think I am in over my head at the moment - I need to make a language which converts easily to music, can be written interchangeably with musical notes. Obviously this will require doing a lot of work on the music end too.
Has anyone done ...

Whimemsz: How many official Greek letters are there referencing pickled geese?
Slereah: At least two, apparently.
Slereah: "Official letter in Greek mentioning a pickled goose (P.Duk.inv. 599)"
Slereah: It is followed by "Official letter in Greek mentioning a pickled goose (P.Duk.inv. 605 R) "
Slereah: Pickled geese were serious stuff.

True that.

A book about Greek from a really historical perspective that you could learn the language with would be much-desired. Such a book exists for Sanskrit, and I've heard it's good, but it's not cheap.
