Dheknami

[Duaseron]

There stands next to the language Dheknami 'coming soon' at the home page of Virtual Verduria, but when is Dheknami going to be published?

[Bob Johnson]

soon

Amuse yourself by making sound changes to Munkhashi and guessing what the result will be. That's what I do.

Heh, except the lexicon already has the relevant Dhekhnami words. So you could amuse yourself by working out the sound changes.

I think Zomp wanted to develop Sarroc more fully before launching Dhekhnami . . . given LCK2, the other novels, and his moving house, I'm guessing he probably hasn't had much opportunity to look at it.

Yes, all that plus I've been working on a paid conlang.

I also have the nagging thought that I need to know more about Carhinno first.

I've been working on a paid conlang.

This comment has not gone unnoticed.

I'm pretty sure I've mentioned such things before— this is the third one I've done. It shouldn't be that surprising, surely.

[Vuvuzela]

Ooh, ooh, I want to do a paid conlang! So who's gonna pay me? Oh, yeah, no one. Fine then, I'll pay myself! So now I'm paying someone to do my conlangs AND getting paid to make them. I feel special.

No, you've never mentioned this. Nowhere on the board at least.

And if you can talk about it - who's paying for a conlang? Fantasy authors? Is it for a film or a computer game?

Yes, I remember reading about it somewhere; but it was probably Virtual Verdúria rather than the ZBB.

I hope they are paying you with hard currency!

I thought they paid him with exquisite phonemes

Like /^hʂ:/, /ŋ͡m/, /k͡ʟ̝̊ʼ^w/ and /r̥^ɥ/. I'll take those for payment. Mmm, tasty (and mostly difficult to pronounce) phonemes.

[tezcatlip0ca]

I literally pronounced the first one looking at the post.

That's theft! Give it back right meow!

Nice plan! I'm with ya!!!

[patiku]

How much for a conlang?

[Civil War Bugle]

Is there a revised ETA for Dhekhnami? Just out of curiosity.

[legolasean]

How about now? How's our Dekhnami doing?

[Drydic]

ARE WE THERE YET?








HOW ABOUT NOW?

[So Haleza Grise]

Zomp is working on another book at the moment, I think? Maybe there will be more on Dhekhnami inside it

[patiku]

Gonna hafta buy it to find out!
