i love the idea of creating conlangs. i’ve experimented with the idea of them in years past but have never done anything with them, let alone created one.

i did create some toki pona-based ones as they consist of few words (~100) but i want to create ones that aren’t just based off toki pona.

    @tias I’ve learned over the years of working with language that precision and ambiguity are both equally practical and important modes of language.

    Precision lets you describe the world and agree on things. Ambuguity enables you to find out stuff about the speaker, about yourself and your social context. That’s where fun lives in the language.
