Very interesting, very cursed! One question: are there syllables which recur across lexemes? If so, are there some that have a common meaning, like a syllable which always occurs in the names of felids or something? Or are the two syllables in a word combined purely arbitrarily? I noticed one example in the vocabulary: їй - ы̌ыы̌ь: what kind; їйъ - гуць: what do (tr/intr) but I suppose that may be an exception given that these are function words. Excellent work truly scrambling the order of components! And I'm very glad to see balanced ternary featured! This is what a cursed conlang ought to be, one where I wonder for syntactic reasons if a human could natively acquire it.
Thank you. I combined syllables by random. The case of їйъ - ы̆ыы̆ь and їйъ - гуць is just a coincidence, I noticed it during the edit. I desined my language with intention for it to have different morphs having their L or R-parts the same, but I was so carried away making silly syllables that almost every (if not every) syllable appears only once. This kinda weakens the point of having one morph per two words, because L and R parts start having meanings, but it can be fixed by just inventing new lexemes that reuse existing syllables or just mentioning that they can exist.
At the risk of being perceived as a contrarian: this language is not cursed at all. It's rather beautiful and harmonic, actually, truly a poet's dream. Making it tonal was probably a misstep though, that doesn't fit the general vibe very well.
first off, I have to say, while I barely understand what's going on, I am just laughing from the absolute chaos of having all the words? whatever they are, flying about due to the operations. While this conlang design might seem totally unnatural (and well, it pretty much is) some aspects of it eeriely reminds me of these bipartite verbs which are composed of two dependent morphemes which each can not stand alone but can exist if they are said in combination with eachother. If you search "Bipartite verbs in languages of western North America" you can find the paper on the Academia Edu site. if you're having too much trouble, I could try uploading the pdf and linking to it tho I think youtube doesn't like it when someone posts links in the comments. Honestly, if I had more skill, I'd love to see how I or someone should attempt to natural evolve such a perpetually circumpositional-based syntax. It's so interesting and unique.
Tbh english phrasal verbs do sometimes associate meaning to the order of two words that make a single lexeme. Think of "to turn on smn." vs. "to turn smn. on" :)
I think you could have done a better job at explaining how the operations work. Especially when talking about subtrees in the beginning it would have been very helpful to show what you mean , and in the end you could have gone through the whole composition of one sentence fragment or at least compared the trees to the sentence (in a single slide)
I don't see how it's "one morph per two words". Surely it's two morphemes per one word, it's just the words are not continuous (just like morphemes are in non-concatenative Semitic morphology)
yooooooo I love balanced ternary, I got so excited when I saw you added that, even though it isn’t particularly important to the language. this one is cursed in a very cool way, good job
Great Job, amazing. It really could fit into the language family of the real world with its peoples and ways of perceiving different from other populations.
Corrections:
6:03 → should be: цо (ttsō)
Ну братишь, ну это прям сильно. Один из самый интересных конлэнгов на моей памяти, так ещё и кириллицей. Удачи тебе!

@@CaesiumFox Very interesting! Yeah, that's not a surprising consequence of having a small sample lexicon.
I love how things just get broken up and dispersed into distant parts of the sentence
I think this should win. It's just exceptional. I love the orthography. I love the numeral system. I love everything about it.

Так вот что было в том чемодане...
Great video, great language
It sounds like Russian-Chinese mix and I love it
Хорошо снимаете, спасибо за видео! Вот бы еще просмотров больше) тут или ждать от ют алгоритмов снисхождения или юзать платную ютифайраскрутку
it kind of feels like vietnamese written with cyrillic
Mindblown, even for Polish speaker ;)
Romanization looks like somewhat failed Thai print ;)

yes, pretty european
Some letters seem out of place but alphabet’s fine regardless
Sounds a bit like Mandarin

If Inglish was fonetikally konsistent:
Is there no word for otter?
Just invented:
river otter: шы - ѕайъ
sea otter: каь - лань
@@CaesiumFox Sea otter: каь - лань
Oh no! A posteriori morph!
@@somecyrillicletters ??explain
@@eyeofthasky "Калан" is another word for a sea otter in Russian, which is (most likely) the author's native language.
@@somecyrillicletters Yes, he's our elephant.
No thank you
If you can do this new conlagtuber than can you teach the world a siberian language.
I added a new word for Toki Pona meaning "compression stockings":
len noka suli wawa

Cyrillic looks so unusual in this language
I love how it goes, but it looks similar to lojban for me.
This is just phonology Albania
Great Job, amazing. It really could fit into the language family of the real world with its peoples and ways of perceiving different from other populations.
6:03 wrong --- "few (> 0) => 4o (*tts*o)... or if u intend **tzh** u need the one supplement cyrillic letter
it should be «tts»
Would this language have digits or would the numbers be written only in words?
It has digits:
«ı» = 1
«·» = 0
«:» = −1
For example:
ıı:::ı:··ı·
It looks like a fictional Turkic language
Turkic languages being agglutinative...
