nice (:

maybe you can also aim at peoples who want to revive dying or lost language, not just conlangers I guess.

also is it possible to type non-Latin characters with this?

maybe do it grammatical-wise, if you already want some non-European phonology. However, some of the SAE grammatical features, like definite article and SVO word ordrr, are not uniquely European. Some(but probably not all) more distinctively are particle comparative with the use of inflected comparat...

ok (:

after all it is your lang so you decide what to do on it.

not bad so far. however, I have one minor opinion related to the terminology: I think the "neuter" gender in your language would be called "masculine" if it were other languages, as male people and animals would belong to your "neuter" gender. but this is just my opinio...

really nice (:

phonological change, which can make originally separated affixes fuse together, becoming a single affix I think that that plus levelling and expanding by analogy are how most fusional paradigms formed. ok (: you are right, these happen, the cause can be phonological(i.e. merge or elision of sounds)...

Another factor for fusional languages, I think, is phonological change, which can make originally separated affixes fuse together, becoming a single affix, but this is my own opinion, I can be wrong.

You are right, it is likely that 的 has never been a pronoun, but I think it might lost the meaning as a pronoun in some intermediate stages, maybe I should clarify my words Also some other languages do also use pronouns directly for possessions: https://wals.info/chapter/24 The Tiwi example is like ...

How do you change the genitive construction so this construction. warrior-SG.GEN axe-SG.DIR Turns into: warrior-SG.GEN 3SG.SG.GEN axe-SG.DIR I guess this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/His_genitive Also, the Classical Chinese possessor marker 之 was actually a 3rd person pronoun, and is the preceden...

I kinda want to have a language where most adjectives are actually nouns meaning "ADJ-ness", and the adjectival usage of these words are accomplished by using possessive structures or adpositional phrases. Lots of languages don't have a distinct category of adjectives. While it's more com...

We already have a thread for building proverbs; however, despite of the similarities, proverbs are not idioms, and idioms are not proverbs, and I think we should also have a thread for building idioms, or euphemistic way to describe something unpleasant(e.g. death). Rules: a person provides an idiom...
