Re: Cissian

This would be nice within a Magyar-less alternative timeline. Thank you! I haven't thought about the alternate history in much detail but I think I'll keep the Hungarians in Europe as well as their kingdom so the Cissians have been "repressed" for many centuries but eventually were able t...

Cissian

Цiски Ёзик (cjíski jozík) Most likely this will be the only post but I am really proud of how it turned out so I wanted to share it with you. Cissian is a Slavic conlang which can't really be assigned to any of the three major Slavic subgroups (but I don't want to call it a Central Slavic language ...

Re: (Conlangs) Q&A Thread - Quick questions go here

What about... a dual? If this is aimed at me, what exactly do you mean? [:$] What is the original situation the process starts from? Functionally I see nothing unnatural with those mergers but phonetically it can be strange if the old feminine accusative /u/ (if it was /u/) merges with the genitive...

Re: (Conlangs) Q&A Thread - Quick questions go here

I am working on an a posteriori Slavic conlang at the moment and while I want it to not be very unique and outstanding, I thought about is merging the nominative and accusative cases into one, as male and neuter nouns are already the same in those cases (save animate nouns) and the adjectives also t...

Re: Language practice thread

Je n'ai jamais entendu le mot « Dingwort » moi non plus. À l'école, on a utilisé seulement « Nomen » ou « Substantiv », et quand j'étais en école primaire, les profs disaient « Namenwort ». Mais je sais que ma mère m'a dit qu'elle le reconnais comme un « Hauptwort » aussi. I've never heard the word...

Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs

Ex- in the sense of "out of"?

I also just wondered: does it still have something to do with perturbation? Or was the meaning influenced by ferrum as well?

Re: Guess the Word in Romlangs

ex-perturbation? Although I don't know what it could mean. Depends on what the purpose of the prefix was. Was it an intensifier in this case à la a massive perturbance?

Ahh, I'm glad I didn't guess what I was thinking earlier, then. Its meaning isn't as literal as something like "to pick weeds" or "to mow the lawn", right? [tick] , it doesn't have anything to do with anything related to gardening or plants. Although it literally is "the ac...

Lets try the priest? [cross] Anyway, "esmaicelisaçõi" is essentially "little ex-evil-ization", The -maicel- part aka the "little evil" isn't actually correct as there was a semantic shift (inspired by other closely related Romance natlangs) but I think knowing it isn't...

That's a hard one. Depending on the view of the speaker, the process of exorcising is either similar to what that word describes or it's really far off.
