Substantial postings about constructed languages and constructed worlds in general. Good place to mention your own or evaluate someone else's. Put quick questions in C&C Quickies instead.

That's okay. I don't understand yours.
I generally forget to say, so if it's relevant and I don't mention it--I'm from Southern Michigan and speak Inland North American English. Yes, I have the Northern Cities Vowel Shift; no, I don't have the cot-caught merger; and it is called pop.

I don't understand your degree system
Degrish mga genthuri tekupsh. 100 degrish guryuduri tekupsh. Degrisistema im kadu telxshix, mgezhax che sistema ratsipshe sha komunishcha.
0 degrees is as cold as it gets. 100 degrees is as hot as it gets. Our degree system is simple and intuitive, unlike y'all's ultra-rationalist commie units.
