I want to present a magic system I'm working on for a critique, but I'm concerned about people stealing my ideas. A few points to consider: 1. No one cares. This is not meant to be an insult, but to say that folks are generally too wrapped up in their own projects and ideas to pay much attention to...

I've been wanting to mess with a no-obstruent language for a while now

Xarau Xarau are a species of sapient born with no skeleton, internal or external. Eusocial in structure, they shape their young into whatever structure they desire by laquering on an exoskeleton made of a semi-transparent green substance called Zu'keem, which must be replaced as the larvae grows, m...

It's basically a clone of Kwa'kwa'c'qaay in terms of how it works, though its role in the world is vastly different.

It's supposed to be me. And I'm sad. -------- Kataan Dairen rises from the still-warm cinders of the Ashkanaan Wastes like a grey wart on mottled, rotten skin. Skycrawlers zip over the black dunes, carrying passengers and freight to and fro the strange construction. Though some of the other 18 Daire...

It's something completely different, though I'm not afraid to take ideas from old scrapped conworlds and recycle them so you'll probably recognize a lot of stuff.

*shrug* --------- The ancients, in their wisdom, left no part of the world untouched by their passing.

Thanks for showing up, Micamo! So you view religion like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvgZkm1xWPE I don't understand the question. Is this a joke? Have you ever considered making a world where the rebels are more fervent in their religious beliefs than the People in Power? Well, yes. Relig...

I originally wanted an x-with-charon that represents a uvular fricative (with no corresponding /q/) but this forum's font doesn't like it and it doesn't display properly. The diareses was a compromise measure but I decided I'd rather just remove it altogether. It's [ɯa]. Whether the first or the sec...

Yes, each final syllable in a root has an "expanded form" that surfaces when suffixation happens. Monosyllables don't undergo final vowel devoicing.
