  1. W00t! So looking forward to this :D

    Thinking I'll throw in a few more tunes in my personal language... lately I've been wanting to knit together my #conlang (mazlaani) + toy cult (github.com/alexglow/aeiu/wiki) + mind-altering gadgetry (github.com/alexglow/mvtagen/wi – as seen in a couple talks last year).

    Still gotta pull together a one-liner for my set, but there'll also be a few new originals & covers, plus some shined-up Space Songs I haven't done in a while :V musician.social/@radiofreefedi

  3. Most languages spread through conquest or government policy. Esperanto grew because ordinary people simply saw value in the idea and chose to participate.

    From its first publication in 1887 (Unua Libro), it expanded through letters, local clubs, and international correspondence.

    Grassroots connection at its finest.

  5. Orshzowan WotD: Laax [ɬɑx]: (n) Gift, something given away without payment or reward, freely, kindly. Related verbs: k'laax'aa: To give freely, generously, without reward. Ex: “K'laax'aask Vasili tuptup'et.” = “Vasili gave her his heart/love freely.” k'laaxk: To receive a gift. Ex: “K'laaxk'esk Tuliann, Vasili tuptup'et.” Tuliann received Vasili's freely given love.“ #conlang #theavianage #fiction #writing #birdsofmastodon

  7. One of the coolest parts of Esperanto's design is its agglutinative structure.

    Instead of memorizing thousands of entirely new words, you combine roots, prefixes, and suffixes in predictable patterns.

    It rewards pattern recognition, giving language learners a quick win right out of the gate.

  13. Something new, thought I'd share some of my Orshzowan (eagle dynasty) conlang from The Avian Age series. Today's word: Seh'oo (n) Character, social standing, how one conducts oneself, honor. Ex: "Seh'oo'at kull'as" = "His honor is like a rock" (e.g., an honorable fellow). #conlang #theavianage #fiction #writer #birdsofmastodon

  15. For my polyglots and language lovers:

    Have you ever tried learning a constructed language like Esperanto? Did you stick with it, or was it just a gateway into other languages?

  18. The fey should sound like something half-remembered. Something that was here before the words we have for it.
