i only know : ywnwök(you walk
The concept is great, but the execution requires some modification. Eg. too many phonemes, sometimes unintuitive Romanization, unnecessary vocabs, et Cetra. Has anyone modified vötgil so it's easier for at least the vötgil community to use?
How does tense work in Vötgil? I’m guessing there’s present, past and future and that nothing affects them.
Also how does possession work in vögil? Do you use the word for “of” like “dog of mine”?
we're confused about the grammar. best approximation we have is "WitLögViz9ytFetRerSumBrd"

Just came from this video:
so where do I start
So... uh, I just started learning the language and I wanted to know if it's still a thing, I see there's few people here, so I'm assuming it's not a popular conlang in terms of speakers, but I don't really care, I'm having fun learning it
Vötgil viz sum gwd leq twr sey. Nuy wil sey wix Vötgil cöl dey!
How can I learn vötgil? I think it is a very interesting concept and I would like to know it.

Massive shout-out to my friend Jenna AKA JennALT / SpaceBBQ / MinaDubs!
For as long as u/ostracod leaves the pages explaining it up, V0tgi lives on!
Also, the Discord invite link used in places on this sub is expired. [Edit: This one posted 2 years ago should work: https://discord.gg/bFtqYHy ]
(P.S. The icon looks great.)
Any suggestions for what should go in the sidebar?

the punctuation marks in the writing system are . ? ! " but why do i see : ; in the translations
edit: the babbel story has -
why is ɑj written like uy and not öj
I was learning Vötgil and I have small question.
Beacuse: 'Tid/Did' makes descriptor from a verb and first example is: 'KucTidPrs' which means controlled person. And: 'Rey' makes a noun that routinely recives verb`s action, so 'KucRey' should mean control.
And my actual question is that: Are there any differences between: 'KucTidPrs' and 'KucReyPrs'?
I do not know if this is correct. I might be wrong.
What I mean by that is a place or website made to help you learn it or a dictionary with approximate translations
Yeah
I'm trying to write "If you can read this, you're crazy" in Vötgil. Below is what I've got.
Cif"WisKanRyd9is"YwnKro""
Is this right?
I would really like to see a word like "hi" or "bye".
