@@ @@ Updates on Work on Mark Okrand's Atlantean @@ Overview of Work I'm still working on this language, getting a lot done. I made a bunch of new notes and studies and translations. I hope to just photograph them all and then make a webpage for them and plop them online and share them here and in m...

In a lot of ways, Atlantean is more fleshed out and realistic than Klingon. No one else seems to realize it or comment on it, but the Klingon Language as presented in "The Klingon Dictionary" is very different from the Klingon Language known and used by its fans since. Fans should have mad...

masako No, it doesn't suggest that, necessarily. They're both made by the same purpose and correspond in concept. I would say it's finished and sufficiently decipherable. No, it's quite reliable. You must misunderstand Okrand or he didn't remember. I've corresponded with him quite a bit the last 3 y...

Wow! All that complaining on my other post. Then I do this great post with all the requested examples and no one replies.

Replies to replies to this thread: masako Yeah, I post about them here sometimes and then others I make webpages for. You can find them on my website, the links are all organized at the bottom. It's preceded by like a journal of scholarship which I mean to move in the next week or so. https://anylan...

Sorry for moving the thread, I should have just deleted one part. Oh, it's hectic over here.

There's also no possible way to say that Thomas Jefferson was born in Port Huron, unless there is a spatio-temporal portal between Port Huron and Shadwell VA.

Well, I meant Thomas Edison, the famous inventor.

:) I haven't read any of the newer replies yet! Thanks everyone and I'll try to be more cheerful and gracious in the future. Prompted by Valkyrie (Vilike), over private message, it occured to me to post links to my works on Pakuni and Atlantean. Please tell me what you think. I've got a lot more com...

I am intrigued, what is that Atlantean word based on a Hmong language? I dunno if it was already mentioned in another Pakuni thread, but have you read Alexander's Victoria Fromkin's Reform-Pakuni of 1995 ? :) On those lines, actually, you know what? I'm thinking of making a word for "ivory cho...

I've recently done huge translation projects for the Klingon language, too. My texts for that one were more about ancient political drama, oppressive ancient empires, ancient mining, slavery, and ancient geography and anthropology, etc. Whereas the texts I've selected for Atlantean are far less stre...

Sorry, I'm re-posting this one for the sake of on-going research into Pakuni. I've saved a copy of everyone's posts and will reply in the next few days. Or try.

I'm going to eventually get to the replies to the first thread I wrote about Atlantean and Pakuni. And I will try hard to do so graciously. But give me some time, my time online is limited and my schedule usually quite jam-packed. Even on weekends. I remember college and K-12, when I had a lot more ...

Imagine posting an essay not about conlanging and also with absolutely no modesty anywhere. Anyway, to make this post productive, my current conlang takes very heavy inspiration from Ancient Egyptian because I think the language is really cool. Also clitics, I really like clitics. Imagine people on...
