The orthography of this language, in romanization, prohibits vowels without diacritics.

#44

A conlang without defined phonology, only defined orthography.

The document describing the conlang shall never mention the pronunciation of any word in any way. A purely orthographic, non-spoken language of sorts.

Ñavi darûk, daruk vokarûd - ãduk ãslarbôs?

# 48

a language with a disturbingly cacophonic and complex syllable structure that still manages to use a syllabary designed for exclusively open syllables

(some) romanizations and translations on @iridium-lizard ;) kay maybe some other time

Another "inventing languages backwards" bullshit project.

I'd say that Aba'abe project is pretty much done for the first stage and I will return to it someday later, but meanwhile, followers, I present to you a different idea.

What if we did something similar, with a pre-generated onomasticon of sorts, but:

The words are longer.

There's some semblance of orthography, but no defined phonology.

We must assign meanings to words and then break down the morphology.

Say we have a word "Ansendir". We could give it a definition: "Oxbow lake". Now, we say that it's not just one morpheme, but three: "Ans", "en", "dir", which together (in some combination) mean (literally) "crescent-shaped lake".

WIP name for this right now is gonna be just that, Ansendir, and the only reference point will be an Awkwords setting preset (see under cut) and this post on @444namesplus. I will open a free-to-edit document if people seem interested enough.

CV(N)/(C)VN

The [S] subpattern defines a singular syllable, so to generate a two-syllable word just put "SS" in the pattern field on the revived Awkwords site.

#50

A polysynthetic language where a whole SVO phrase can be turned into a single word with adjective affixes mixed in.

#68

A conlang where words in a sentence are ordered by decreasing animacy.

The subject (if animate) comes first, then the object and then the inanimate object.
