Guys help! I'm accidentally adding dozens of grammatical numbers to my conlang and I can't help myself.

Why would I even need a greatest plural-general?

Let's build a conlang democratically!

The first decisions to make are in phonology. First, we must vote on how many phonemes we want.

The length of the longest comment will be the number of consonants. The length of the shortest comment will be the number of vowels. If there are an even number of comments, the conlang will be tonal, with the number of tones equal to the length of the second-shortest comment. If there are an odd number of comments, the conlang will be non-tonal, and the numbers of vowels and consonants will be swapped.

The election ends on November 13th at 13:00 UTC.

Conpidgin Discord

Since the Viossa Discord server is temporarily closed to people wanting to join, I decided I'd start another conpidgin myself (and with anyone wanting to join). The goal (like Viossa) is to create a coherent pidgin from language contact using no English and no translation. We have 15 members as of this post, join us if you're interested.

Join here: https://discord.gg/Yx9uwuMnxZ

The conpidgin right now has mostly German and Old English influence, so it would be nice to see people who speak other languages join us!

Language learning software

What’s a good software that I use to make my own conlang course? Something like Duolingo that’s easy to access by learners?

Thanks in advance?

Is this a good IAL?

Chinese, except quantifiers don't exist, every character uses the Japanese go-on reading, and it is written using Latin script

Terrible language idea

A language with every single Unicode character as a letter and you have to distinguish certain letters in certain words.

Word for the language: hHhdhnh(/#*€(]])(#*(@;]][bsg

What would the stereotypical speaker of various conlangs be like?

examples:

Esperanto - has a masters degree in linguistics/anthropology

toki pona - autistic homestuck fan

Ido - fucking hates zamenhof

name your stereotypes lol
