So I was inspired By J.R.R. Tolkien And Skyrim and I... · 8:34pm Sep 28th, 2014
I'm making alien languages. I'm making one for my minigonga that will need to be split in five different dialects with a possible 'lost' sixth one. I'm debating on whether I should also make one for the other aliens of the Lux Terrarorium. It's...surprisingly not that difficult, but I'm know lenguage ecspert leik Tolkien. Thought I'd tell someone...
Try to make a beautiful one. I'm tired of 'rough' languages. Elven is very much based on Germanic and taken to beauty in a different way. I'd like to see what you'd do to make an 'art' language.
2490992 I noticed that. You mean the languages that just look like one letter repeated several times with minor variations?
Ricti? At kaltasc. Jat ha jœran nwgra somût.
Translation: Really? That's cool. I have made some as well.
Like this one. It's a lot more fun than it may seem at first.
2491005 I can't write it here because I haven't gotten the pronunciations down, yet.

My formula for making one is as follows:
1: Name language.
2: Decide the alphabet.
3: Give each letter of the alphabet a specific pronunciation.
4: Decide on any diphthongs, and give them a pronunciation.
5: Start forming an alphabetical dictionary, from "A" to "Zero", of basic words or terms.
6: When I have about 200 or so words, start making phrases.
All of this is usually done in a notepad file.
2491002 Naw, 'rough' is all that 'g' 'h' and 'k' sounds...makes it more guttural.
I'm learning Black Speech.
There's that I guess
2491199 This one relies heavily on the "u" and "l" letters.
2492411 ...Will 'ul' be a syllable?
2492444 No.
2493398 How 'bout 'ug'?
Uhm...Is Dracula Untold a good movie?
2493630 No. Also, what's Dracula Untold?
2493650 It was a something/commercial on the page when I asked the question. Apparently it's a movie in Imax.
2493703 I don't like ads being forced onto me, so I have them disabled. The normal ones on the sides, I leave alone.
2493713 Uhm...that's what it was. (Not to mention that the adblocker I had didn't do anything.) Now It's mostly tire and car commercials. There's a 'STAPLES' one at the bottom for 'HP ink & toner'.
2493728 Hm. I don't see it.
2493770 It changes every time I load the page. Something about Chandeliers and Beds now.
2493785 Anyways, I made syllables for the words. It's a prototype and I'm new to this sort of thing so it still needs reviewing.
2493800 Kk.
2493823 I could use that.
