On CBB, we have a game where we choose a word (usually long), then we transform it the way we want using IPA. It's one of the most popular thread of the forum. Not only it practices a lot IPA writing, but it also showed me new ways to change sounds in a language/conlang to derive it into another one.

Let me show you an example:

dɮɪ̈:.wʊ̈x > 't͡ɬəːvəx

(It's actually what we've come up with on CBB. Can you believe it first was /dɛ'zɑi.ɹəbɫ̩/ (desirable)? :3 )

Let's say: defenestration /difɛnəstreɪʃən/

oh i remember we had something like this for a while which was like you had to adapt it into your conlang's phonology by borrowing. it might be better to go with that, or to specifically require people to use sound changes for their conlang, or something... the brief for this is a bit vague. for example, if you adapt 'defenestration' into the phonology of standard Sentalian, you get something like:
diifènystleecyn [diːfɛnəstɬeːɕən]
and then I can run it through the sound changes for Mybutan and get:
[diːfɛnstʃeːʃn]

Ah yes the Conlang Telephone, that was fun.
And taking your Mybutan > my Coastal Proto-Sayetic

dïhenjësyan [ə̃diːħẽʑːeːɕə̃]

(In Inland, standard, PS it would be more like [ⁿdiːɣɛⁿd͡ʑeːɕɑŋ])

There have been threads where you had to change a whole passage of text in English.

The actual next word is at the bottom. Ignore this first one, I'm just doing it for sillyness.


> Standard Ancaron: sicion [sʲɪˈkjon] si-cion SI-weird "The feeling of an odd or unexpected coincidence"
SI = the Ancaron prefix that creates a related word from a root.

Now the actual one:


> Standard Ancaron: ocion [ˈokjon]
