TNB Conlang (katlani)

Ah yes, eating posessed cats

Can we stop using vaiksal? Lyxal has said he and the other vyxal maintainers dislike the "vyxal bad" joke, so we really shouldn't incorporate it into our language.

nistaha imi ka! oii! (Look! A lot of cats!)

star for both

TNB Conlang (katlani) has surpassed the TNB in activity

katlani hackmd

I love how "animacy classes" autocompletes to "animacy classes near me"

Please preface all words with WR: so I can search them up

@pxeger please let me know your github usernames to get an invite

Why am I here?

GingerBot needs more butter

AYYYYY the parser is done! :))))

can we have noun cases? What i liked most about German was being able to omit prepositions

@pxeger why is there a feature to ignore me? :o

AAAAAAA THE BOT WORKS

katlani docs

@UnrelatedString "What's up, us?"

ktom o izl my mi su mi

Main idea: no gendered pronouns

Vote here for sh and h

That'd make our (final?) fricatives/approximants inventory: s, z, f, v, sh, l, and r

fian dzupiar: Bromance

@taRadvylfsriksushilani surely we should have gitsho, postsho, putsho, patsho, hidsho, etc. for all the methods

Help for GingerBot

We should make like...flashcards lol

WR: ladi (conj): that (introduces a relative clause)

the numbers are constructed from sub10-powerof10 but the sub 10 numbers are in binary lmao

if anyone's still interested in using hackmd but doesnt want to set one up: here

Okay this is most certainly Redwolf-focused :P

WR: nai (v.): do something (unspecified)

ta  [noun]  The subject ("I" in "I am selling your food to Mr. Mann")
    [noun]    Implied "ta"
su  [noun]  The direct object ("your food" in "I am selling your food to Mr. Mann")
lia [noun]  The indirect object ("Mr. Mann" in "I am selling your food to Mr. Mann", usually only shows up with words like "say", "give", or "sell")

[noun] my [owner]   Indicates possession; in "I am selling your food to Mr. Mann", "food" is the noun and "you" are the owner

WR: nimak (pn): most recently mentioned person

WR: pasmak (pn): second most recently mentioned person

WR: y (n): thingy

WR: vaiksal: bad

Here's my idea of the grammar so far: first [verb] (always); then the remaining components can basically go anywhere. These components are: [tense], [adverb], [case][noun][adjective], [case][pronoun]

WR: kat: chat

Vote here for sh only

Vote here for c

@RedwolfPrograms well we can just make its pronunciation undefined and let all kinds of rhotics and maybe even l-ish or w be valid

So pas, ni, fu for the tenses (ni being optional)?

How about we start with an ASCII/vaguely IPA orthography, and then anybody who wants to make an orthography in a different writing system can do so?
