Re: New Conlang - Sound Changes
I've decided to give another artlang a try, this time not oligosynthetic. This is partially because I don't want to deal with the problems with Daas right now, and also due to the fact that one of my conspecies is now confirmed to NOT speak Daas. However, I do want the languages to be related parti...

Re: Arayaz's thread so that she doesn't flood the forum
A Tonal Anglic Language (Ẹlnk?) Derived from Old English. Probably not spoken on Earth, since the nearest contour-tone languages to the Anglo-Saxons were relatively far, and I don't wanna work out interactions with real languages. So this is more a thought experiment, I suppose, unless I get (or so...
