      I did that once making a language. Like: of course they have inclusive and exclusive because that’s just how they are. But why are particles the magical go-to in their language? And particle clusters? Wtf is up with these people???
      I say, like I wasn’t the one who made the decisions.

      I don't even know what to compare it's writing system with. Maybe Tibetan, if it was developed from a cuneiform-like system rather than from an abugida? I'm not sure anyone's ever been quite that insane in real life, but it is, admittedly, hard to tell, since we largely judge the pronunciations of many ancient languages by their writing system. (We can't exactly pop into our time machine with a zoom mic and record ancient Elamites to check how pronunciaton corresponds to their writing.)

    I think I can see the relationship between "steering wheel" and "teacher". It's kind of in how those words are conceptualised. In English "steering wheel" explicitly incorporates "wheel", confusing the origins. But if I look at it from a Dutch perspective, it has a clear relationship with "govern", "lead" and "guide". Moreover, one of the Dutch words for teacher also means "master" (though it's rarely used in that sense). So if "ngwal" is a master, then "ngwàre" is a control, since it's literally "an instrument for leading/guiding". One type of control is a steering wheel.
    Confusing for English speakers, absolutely. But if you internalise these words the way a native speaker would, I think the connection is probably a lot clearer, if perhaps still a bit of a stretch.

      It's pretty straightfoward in Hungarian too - the word for steering wheel is "kormány" & the word for "steer" is "kormányoz", which are the same words we use to say "government" & "govern" respectively, so if you think of teaching pupils as a form of governance the connection is immediately obvious.

    Hey so, I’m not kidding, I’d absolutely buy anything you made into a book about your world and languages even if it was something as simple or “dry” as an encyclopedia with a bunch of charts of language family evolutions and major world history events. I thoroughly appreciate your aesthetic eye and the richness of your world from what you’ve shown so far and I’m really excited to see you make more!!

    This is by far my favorite of your languages you've posted so far. Something about the consonant clusters, among other phonotactics, just sounds beautiful to me. The grammar is very interesting too, and even loosely might inspire one of my world's languages. Then again like all of your conlang videos gets me inspired/driven to worldbuild and conlang lol.

    I think the script is similar to the fanqie 反切. According to wikipedia: “Fanqie is a method in traditional Chinese lexicography to indicate the pronunciation of a monosyllabic character by using two other characters, one with the same initial consonant as the desired syllable and one with the same rest of the syllable (the final).”
    For example we have the word 東 (east) which is described by the formula 德紅反, the first two characters indicate the onset and final, so the pronunciation of 東 [tuŋ] is given as the onset [t] of 德 [tək] with the final [uŋ] of 紅 [huŋ].
    (德 means “virtue” and 紅 is “light red”)

      @@Diego-ud3nb The difficulty of a language is hard to define by itself as it mainly depends on what languages you already speak, but like 5 million other languages in europe have grammatical gender while english doesn’t and my mom thinks it’s really quite an easy language.
      There’s also just how absurdly prevalent english is EVERYWHERE, so immersion material is basically nothing.

    this is pretty amazing. the sound overall is pretty nice, it sounds like a livable version of a major fantasy language that just doesn't hold up in the real world, like Dothrak or Klongon. they're both fine languages, but they don't sound very believable and maybe they're not meant to be, not all conlangs are created for the same reason. but what i'm saying is that this sounds like - more than anything its own thing, but secondarily - a naturalistic version of one of those major fantasy languages. for real world comparisons, it gives me some vague Moldovan vibes -- like a more Slavic Romanian
