Darth Sidious/Emperor Palpatine, anyone?
Looking forward to the Boingy wars....

It's obvious that the clone factory in Kamino still is operational and indeed in use.
Have you tried the helmet on yet, Victors?

One of the very reasons I created Xhaimeran in the first place was to use it for poetry, so yes there is a vast supply of poetry and song lyrics in my conlang. I've also translated a lot of material from Swedish poets Dan Andersson & Nils Ferlin.

Dewrad: Have you thought about entering the next al-Qaida beauty contest?

If you have such a language, what did you do to keep it from going stale over the years? I created my language to use it and that's what I've been doing through the years. In music, poetry and conculturing. Also I've learned a lot about languages in general (bear in mind that I lack what people wou...

Loved the picture on the right.

For some people on this board it seems as though they are afraid someone might mistake them for being hetero, so they have to constantly mention how gay they are. piss off, you'll never say such a thing about a hetero, will you?! it's always homos who are sooo in yo face with their sexuality, right...

What’s the opposite of a rainbow? And then what would asexual pride fly? The supposed heterosexual pride flag: http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/q/qq-het.gif Common, Victor! That looks like something IKEA could have come up with. Now I'm as offended as any minority can possibly be. I'll sue your ...

What I don't like is how when I tell people that "I'm making my own language", they always show one of these reactions: One, they'll overestimate and think I'm out to create the next Esperanto or something, when in reality I have no sociopolitical ambitions and Bengedian is simply a pet project, a ...

Shara is at it again. All Xhaimeran translations by yours truly.

I guess most of what I intended to say when reading the topic post is already said. I may just add this... My conlanging/conculturing has expanded far beyond every single one of my original intentions and has given me hours and hours of true fun. It has gone from being just a (dubious) hobby into be...

He is indeed free to perform the prescribed treatment himself.

Perhaps I should make a sample front page for a newspaper issued by whatever left wing party Falgwia has. Maybe an issue of the Falgwian Social Democrat decrying American consumerism taking hold. Or the "Falgwian United Taliban" and their theme issue "Brother Osama Remembered" (translated to Falgwi...

Horor was the first word I learned in Swedish. lol.

Then I prescribe a bar of soap for your dubious teacher(s) - to be inserted in orifice of choice.

Add an extra bar of soap next time you brush your teeth, lady.

That could be arranged. I'll just assemble all chapters and make a pdf for you. Sounds great. I'm curious to see what it's like. And I never get the chance to read anything conlang-related in Swedish, so that'll be fun. Got a pdf assembled and ready. PM me your e-mail adress and I'll send it. When ...

Nintendo 8-bit & Altered Beast on my arcade machine (which was a bastard to set up because the wiring isn't JAMMA-compatible).

Xhaimeran might be a candidate (or not).

Against: Grammar & lessons all in Swedish, full word lis...

Also, @Count: whence the spelling difference between Xhaimeran and Summeran? Is it just an alternate romanization, or are they different things? Two names for the same language. Before the time/space distortion that now surrounds Xhaimera was put into place the neighboring realms referred to the Xa...

I created the bulk of Xhaimeran in 1999 - 2001. Plenty of time to flesh out the glossary since then....

Wow. Xhaimeran sounds so... complete. True. One may like or dislike the language itself but it's as complete as I believe a constructed language can be and it's fully usable. Of course there are empty spots (I guess I could not write a nature guide in Xhaimeran and name every plant and animal in th...

Thanks! I didn't expect anyone to bump this up. I have now written a post on inflectional morphology, pronouns and prepositions in South Eresian. Grammar! Finally! Just me who was to busy this winter so I missed this thread. Also, it's not every day I find a writing style I really like. Like, hell....
