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.

(I understand. Also, I changed it to an image on that instance because I keep noticing that the IPA diacritics don't display properly when I just type it in here; they tend to shift to the far right or far left of the modified letter, and then tend to kind of mix in with other markings, producing a confusing result. Maybe it's just me, but I don't know. [It gives Times New Roman an actual, practical use though ])

(You could also use DejaVuSans, I find their letters and diacritics are very well.)

Yeah, it depends on the font set in your browser, so you can just change that and it should work.

A scorpion was walking along the bank of a river, wondering how to get to the other side.
Suddenly, he saw a fox.
He asked the fox to take him on his back across the river.
The fox said, "No. If I do that, you'll sting me, and I'll drown."
The scorpion assured him, "If I do that, we'll both drown."
The fox thought about it and finally agreed.
So the scorpion climbed up on his back, and the fox began to swim.
But halfway across the river, the scorpion stung him.
As poison filled his veins, the fox turned to the scorpion and said, "Why did you do that? Now you'll drown, too."
"I couldn't help it," said the scorpion. "It's my nature."
