Helo, everyone.
And Be welcome to my Adventure blog.
Insterpeech is a conlang.
This is a trope grammar language, which is a very difficult idea to explain, and is a main language on my future works.
I'm following many fellow conlangers, artists and journalists on Facebook, and creating words by the analysis of the status updates. Weird? I think there are stranger ideas than this, but the main idea is that many will be used as words, grammatical features, and motes, this all together with my trope grammar, so this is an example of how it works.
Today
I've created "bejofi" (/beχɔfi/) - what I see of you, "betramme" - the
life of the young, or to live as the young, and "dothko" (/dɔθkɔ/) - game -
a tooserious word.
I'm thinking to change "bejofi" to "bojfi", or maybe it's a different word.
And by December 23, I've decided to keep only "betramme", with same meaning from the status update from my fellow conlanger, or artist/journalist. As the original word came from a russian fellow, and as there was a possible tooserious word in mind, I've also decided this word is a tooserious word, so this way the word is a should-know concept. This is not so difficult, isn't it? But well, it takes time, as not all status updates are important, at least to my work with the proper creation of this language in special.
So here we go to the review on this language, and if you have any question contact me on my Facebook page Action Tale.
Interspeech
Interspeech is a model grammar, which might be used to any vocabulary, on future Iehta (our Arda, lovely Earth), and this is a fictional auxiliary language, totally dependant on future human culture to render it's use, that is, from theater, moviemaking, anime, superpop culture, tradition, science and war, and every other characteristic proper to human, and human is called Terrant (from Terra - Earth). There is a huge effort into everything which is spiritual, scientific and also in entertainment vocabulary. Every tooserious word - which are should-know concepts - deals with things of a real importance to the Terrant superculture.
Type: artlang, fictional auxlang based on tropes (not clichés) :: tvtropes.org
Aesthetics: model grammar, naturalistic, terrant, totally dependant on terrant culture to produce sentences and also to be understood.
Phonetic inventory: it's based on the latin alphabet, and uses acute/backtick (crase) and umlaut to define variations, pronounce is similar to danish, latin or finnish.
Romanization: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz, ý, vowels: normal, acute/backtick (agúdo/crase), and umlaut.
Phonotatics: (C)(C)V(vc)(C)(C), + vowel clusters (vc) up to 5 vowels - traoaiels - in which the vowel cluster is one only block and is added to the base vowel
Phonological rules: similarity with A pronounce, all vowels in a cluster are pronounced together as they were one only sound and the most prominent is the base for the meaning
Morphology: fusional
Syntax: V2 - verb second, SVO – verbs of change are final, operator-argument dependant, and trigger firsts in mostly every basic sentences
Eastern and Western appositions: eastern is post – used after, western is pre – used before, to shows how this language can group various dialects within its own use.
Thematic relations (Trope particles): agent, topic (do), experiencer, pacient, participant, adressee (affected, counsciously), stimulus, theme, source, instrument, recipient, location, direction/goal, beneficiary, proper, purpose, change, condition, manner, number (counters), marker (topic, summoning, question), telic/atelic aspect.
Tenses, in the Trope grammar: Present (imperfect: -e; as in: ówbe – (I) exist/come; and imprerative mood: -te; as in: neachtite – judge well), Past Participle (perfect: -on; as in: maltíon (ló) – (I) slept well), Continuous (imperfect: -ie, or (-íy) for Action, -ing for State; as in: ówbie, coming – ówbing, existing), Participant (takepart together second and so agent/s: -s/-as; as in: die Malwa maltis – the dream dreams well), Probable (a subjective tense: -óg; also used to express a number of abstract meanings, and future; as in: twe Nivhwá owbóg – two persons (will probably) come), these being added to a number of auxiliar verbs to construct diverse meaning.
All others are shown or used with auxiliary and particles. The Copula is V2 (+e), phrasal verbs are presently used with particles, and as V2, but verbs indicating change must be final, same way a starting verb indicates frequency (usual, and or also called as the habitual tense) of an action, unless the trigger is declared when it occupies the first position, that is, the first part of a sentence and just before V2 or frequency position.
Special: third person singular conjugates present with -es/-des, as in: ówbes, s-he/it comes.
A Comment would right branch, which is, to be added to the right end.
To verb any word (formal), you hyphen it: -aly|-a. This may show a special akkia-related voluntarily identifying the speaker as female, as neutral-formal, or male with: -lye, -aly, and then -lyo. The -aly also forms a very producent form of creating a new word, as the -dade of portuguese, as in: -aliyyah (there are more options to do this).
A number of forms of Das (Das, Dels, Datten, Des, Dast, Dág, Drämmté, Doch, Domèg) start questions. They're various forms of questions, but they all can be used same way with Das.
Names are capital letter, always.
Declension cases, Trope grammar: accusative case (definite, object; ending -n/-in/-ngi/-na/-nne), absolutive case (mark both the subject of an intransitive verb and the object of a transitive verb, in addition to being used for the citation form of a noun; ending -wa/-ta), and the connective case (this (1) binded to that (2); endings -l/-to(2) and -sta/-(1)). The case marking may have special cases, for some special words; see the dictionary - I'm still working on the vocabulary post.
Article use, start/final with Plural formation
The Trope Grammar use of plural is simple, but use the article die when you're pointing. There are two affixes in question, 1. am-/a- and 2. -us. The first pluralyze, and the second specify. This way Malti – good dream, would be singular, and indefinite, same as english – a dream. Then: Ammalti – the dream (specific), Maltius – Dreams (plural), and you may also use together, Ammaltius – The good dreams. All words in Interspeech are basically indefinite, but you can use the article before it, to make it definite, die Malti – The good dream, if you don't want to better specify singular or plural, or else, even the topic, which would be: do Maltius, or: Maltius do, for western/eastern variations.
The -m- in am-/a- may also be changed for a double of the first letter, if a consonant.
So, Amakalassaius, or Akkalassaius, for: The languages (Die Kalassaius).
This is a brief resume of Interspeech, and I'll have posts on vocabulary for each of my various languages for now on, so come back whenever you want to see what's new. I have also worked a few on my various projects Draka, Efemmera, Koresh, Tradelang, Shadow, Deathspeech, Uyu, Rakma, Ly'ène (Grey), Jackal, Apuka (a friend project), Aýlea, PIE incantations (Earth related), Fauk, and of course my pet language Akkia, the Storyteller's language. They all will feature my Novels, too, together with posts here at the Blog. It depends mostly on time to work proper the languages, and so I'll show them at the right time.
Then, I'll have more posts on the language, soon.
Thank you, and Blessed be.
