How to distinct between direct and indirect object?

aecu spyeg daicu is the example given in the textbook i learned most about Vyrmag (https://www.reddit.com/r/conlangs/comments/5xiqn9/actual\_complete\_lessons\_in\_vyrmag\_after\_two\_years/). it could hypothetically mean we speak you, but that doesnt make sense, so the meaning is clear. but what if direct and indirect object are in 1 sentence, like: "i give this to her"? maybe smth like: ae zag usk yak daigi? or is this rather used in another way? i know this subreddit is quite inactive, but maybe someone is sad about this too and wants to revive Vyrmag too... grat!

How does this subreddit have 168 subscribers? I thought that this sub was dead? And why are there 5 people currently online at this sub?

"Yut" as preposition

Does anybody think it would be confusing to use the word "yut" as a preposition meaning "by means of" or "with"?

I.e.:. Ae yul dai yut pyr (I kill them with fire; macabre example, but an example nonetheless)

eg ag ek (1 and 6)

Just took a look at the Vyrmag intro doc (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XTEuv1C3Y8D2pgIjKWwYfaYk2Ur8HgO8FfNmmitPE4M/edit), and it struck me that this 2 words (eg:1 and ek:6) sound too similar and have meanings in the same field/area. Wouldn't it make for a lot of confusion especially in a noisy spoken medium (although it would be ok for writing/typing)? Pretty new to Vyrmag; how are numbers usually used in speech; haven't such misunderstandings been encountered yet?

Couldn't we change one of them to something else? grat!

sino vyrm!

This took at least a few hours in total, considering I decided which character would be which on paper, then transferred it onto the Google Doc. A lot of them were chosen from my own perspective, and if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask them!

228 card Anki deck with at least 1 phrase for every word.

This deck contains every Vyrmag root word, affix and suffix. I wrote a phrase for every word. There is no audio. There are 2 card types: one focusing on the sentence and one focusing on the root word.

The deck is not sorted by difficulty or ease in any way. Some words are also used more than others, there is a criminally low usage of the 'ak-' prefix for example.

Credit to: /u/Sc07713 for creating the deck type and note format
/u/tigfa for his pdfs and some sentences
To myself for writing nearly all of the phrases.

Note: If anyone wants to re-upload this with audio then you are welcome to.

Is rys necessary for every question?

Do you understand it when I say 'dai kyo ankyo kragbelg?'? How would you respond?

What about "dai ais anaiszagtas usk tyegnyaon?"?

I ask because this is a common way of asking questions in Cantonese.

Pronunciation zag vs zog.

What is the difference in pronunciation? Recordings would be welcome. Would zag be /zæg/ in this case, I imagine that they're a bit confusing for English speakers.

Does anyone have a Memrise or Anki deck?

It would be especially helpful if you had a deck with phrases and possible translations.

[Request] Spoken Vyrmag on Youtube?

Hey there!

Just arrived here, and as someone who hasn't yet had the chance to go use the discord, I've wondered whether anyone could (also for future reference) upload themselves speaking some random sentences in Vyrmag. That would also, as far as googling hath provided me, be the premiere of Vyrmag on that platform.

These sentences would ideally contain the few phonemes there are, maybe with an on-screen translation/IPA/cleantext. If anyone's up to it, looking forward to it!

Disclamer about the sub

A lot of older posts and comments are written in old or archaic vyrmag. You will likely see some big foreign words as well as strange orthography. Anything over a year old will generally be like this.

Vyrmag Discord

The Vyrmag Discord channel is up! For those who don't know, discord is essentially a browser based skype-teamspeak style voice chat/text app. It doesn't lag and you don't have to download anything.

Click this to go to the discord

There are Vyrmag lessons on the Discord if you wish to be taught Vyrmag by an actual Vyrmag speaker.

Due to the recent request for more text, I'll be doing this sporadically.

I travelled to two lands, the USA and the EU. here are my thoughts on the two.

the eu is better for younger people. In the US, one cannot drink under 21. because of this, there is less nightlife. people in the US also sleep earlier.

In Europe, laws regarding alcohol are less (enforced). In the US, one must be over 25 in order to borrow a car in exchange for money (rent). because of this, traveling the US is harder, also, few cities in the US have good public transport

I hope you can read this, as I have only started learning vyrmag today. Therefore, I would also appreciate feedback. In case it is unreadable, here is what I wanted to say: It seems to me that people can use the word 'kyun' to mean two different things: It either expresses possibility/capability, or permission. I wanted to know whether this is indeed the case in Vyrmag. And, of course, I wanted to see how I could translate that, and whether others thought my translation was understandable and well written.

Edit: pyr -> pyrbyel

Bad language in vyrmag

I've been considering learning vyrmag, but I can't in good faith learn a language without curses. Are there any in vyrmag, and what are they?

rys dai spyeg "yeae"

The title is my attempt at vyrmag. It is supposed to say, "How do you pronounce 'yeae'?"

Did I do it correctly?
