Re: Obscure etymologies
Words I found for Xeroßu were picked from pieces of the language heard in dreams and words that popped in my mind with some hints on the signification. Other words are explicitly constructed by agglutination of root words or weaving (semi deterministic mixing of a few parent words phonemes ). That's...

Re: Settings for your conlangs?
Xerossu is intended to be promoted as the language spoken by the Ereissu-Nifh civilisation in my fictional universe. Ereissu-Nifh are a federation of several high technological species, which are probably the result of some synthetic biology works of another civilisation or their own ancestors, but ...

Re: Longest Word In Your Conlang
as xerossu have agglutinative rules to create new needed words, there may be pretty long words, but yet the longest word in my lexicon are : hbnāȑokotlaomāruk and satimexitlahuitli hbnāȑokotlaomāruk : big bird without claws satimexitlahuitli : having consciousness of some systemic error in sensory p...

Re: First Words for Your New Conlangs?
I created actual xerossu from keeping some rare words from precedent attempts I made long ago : kenore (Hi!) , xeross (communication protocol) that was already the language name of the previous versions and became Xeroßu / Xerossu (conveniant writing, but incorrect romanization) , kerer (smt that ki...

Re: Conlang with a Mayan-inspired script
I like it ! great work
I only find the glyph for "roots" to be a little confusing about the thing evocated, in total contrast with pretty every other logograms that appear pretty clear to me once the meaning is told a first time.
