Xerossu

Post by HerljosScheindorf »

Hi,
I'm working on a language that is coming to me via dreams and visions, for a long time ago.
It's called Xerossu ( Xeȑoßu )

Xerossu means by itself "which is wowed by hand" or "communication protocol"

It uses for writting an abugida of (at present time) 30 "cyclic" glyphs (2x15) , carrying a numeric value from 1 to 15 and -1 to -15, plus, nao : 0.
Five "transcendent" glyphs : hixi (meaning "add"/"receiving"/"input"), tawa ("substract"/"drop"/"release"/"output"), mru ("transmute"/"permute"/"change"/and also "reflect"),heptk ("tie"/"weave"/"knot") and two "contact breaker" glyphs : eki and upsi.

(not up to date but ... Image

Image)

there are some other features on this alphabet that are still undecided yet, and the exact phonemes are not totally cleared so I can't really use it for transcription at this step, but I'm working on it.

for words romanization I use these uncommon letters to describe these sounds, according to ipa chart
ß : something like sʼ or ʃ (like in "Xeȑoßu")
æ : a + æ ("ædemnel" , great tree)
þ : something like tʼ or ʈ ("þunaþoŕnāruk" , a beast with horns on its head)
r : kind of japanese r/l ( ɭ ? ) ("kerer" , to kill)
ŕ : ɾ ("koŕlo", memories)
ȑ : r and/or ʀ ("ktaȑek" , to scratch)
ǩ : seems to be « ǃ (Post)alveoalar click » ("ǩtulvarukroska" , animal which can speaks)
ᶄ : seems to be « ǁ Alveolar lateral click » or kʼ ("Ķmindi" , fragments/words)
ā : long a ("āruk" , animal)
ō : long ʉ or ɵ or o ("eȑewlōn" , name of a legendary animal)
ē : long e ("ayghēnatzße" , seaweed/sediments)
ū : long u ("amnūndo" , parts of the world known to the speaker)
j : is « d͡ʑ Voiced alveolo-palatal affricate » ("jabai" , low probability)
ï : more or less « ø + ɜ » ("oïtaya" , from my network)

there is a sample of text spoken in xerossu:
http://vocaroo.com/i/s0IEFHgij2XR

dakari taskari shulkat
wushu nifhka tlonoki
lenunka tal kerer
babeyab natliloka þuma wukta le ŕuna xienta tal hixi ekika
ita ari mru ǩtulva hepkt het wohf tal yabit
tzintzin ᶄsa kuta
eina uhwa heptk xeȑosska - asara eki eriwa nifh
ȑeistilacoyl shulxi shier
tal aotlaturitza upsi
āruhf eritska maþayum tolaca

we are crying those killed in combat
our people remains divided
and too much perpetuate the murder
blood never stops flowing, passing and too much filling in the filters of babeyab
I keep in mind those still alive because the hope reborn
listen to this carefully
things affirmed as absolute lock the people in cages
all resonates under the protection of the hyena-universe
It is time to move on
insert more peaceful communication between us

the language grammar is mainly OSV :
tsubacoytl tsubaᶄa ati freki dŕupaka
muzzle tongue "to it connector" freki "to drop / to let loose"+"now"
the tongue of freki is dropping from its muzzle

but "instanciation" propositions can be OVS : leŕowukta eri mru
the leucrocuta which I am

I'll end here this little introduction, and post more informations latter.
thanks for reading

due to problems with hardware and temperatures I can't let my server online 24/24 actually, but there are lot of things here (mainly in french, sorry) : Xerossu.science

Xerossu uses logograms altogether with the main abugida, here are some :
Image
I'm not sure but I think that is the logogram for "Alaemn" , navigators.

Image
aleißa
system core / kernel

Image
æxifaruwke
acropolis

Image
keoleri
wheel

Image
taliki
grid/web

Image
tikzala
universes / spacetime continuum

Now that's an interesting way to make a language. Perhaps, I should keep a dream journal.

Yes, it's the language which I speak in some of my dreams, and, in theses dreams, everything is constructed in order to teach me the language... weird thing...

long past - (instanciation form: plant a seed - great tree)
beautiful - bark-ship - it was here
long past - multiple - voyager + seeds - (the planted big tree) - filled up
and then - direction vector - the stars - propelled violently
then altogether - big + bottom of the cliff + volcano - do a lot of noise
and then - the big tree mentioned before - shadow - us altogether - largely speeded over

we planted a big tree
a beautiful ship of peel
we filled it up with travelling seeds
then propelled it to the stars.
a big volcano at the bottom of the tree erupted
then shadow of the tree covered us all
