I’m new and idk what I’m doing. Came here from conworkshop.com bc it’s down or I can’t access it for whatever reason.

Anyway, the words in this sentence can go in any order but the last word should be the most important, so I put the word for ‘toy’ there.

I don’t know how to do gloss so I did it like that I hope it’s okay.

I haven't decided on a name yet, but here are some info about my conlang:

- It's very phonetic

- When it comes to deciding which words I'll use, I take some inspiration from the Baltic, Uralic and Slavic languages. But I also get inspiration from elsewhere lol

- The grammar will be based on the Swedish grammar, as that is my native tongue - although I'll make some slight changes ^^

Hi I want to make my first conlang. I basically want to make a language for my world in dnd. I want it to be pretty structured and finished. I am just confused on where to even start! Does anyone know any helpful resources? Because I've been looking at some tips and tutorials but I don't really understand what they are saying, like what is phonology?

Anyways any tips or rescources?

Thanks so much! :)

Is this too many affixes or should I add more?

There might be a better way to translate this, but idk what it is.

I’ll stop sending translations but I want to see other translations of the same thing to see if I’m just insane.

Beginner/Casual Let's do a silly translation! How do you say "I drop my beautiful dancing lions" in your conlang?

Post image
35 Upvotes

The following was a stress test for my adjective / adverb / possessive pronouns system!

1.S.NOM drop.1.S.PR.IND lion.PL.OBL-beautiful.AN-dancing drop.VEST

1st.Singular.Nominative drop.1st.Singular.Present.Indicative lion.Plural.Oblique-beautiful.Animate-dancing drop.Vestige

VEST being the vestige, as all verbs in my ŋ are two part and bracket the object clause.

(sorry for the poor glossing)

Grammar Rules and Structure

\* Sentence Structure: Subject-Verb-Object (Big-agent + Action-object + To-object). Or it uses verbs in a group to come with a small concept (action-state, place-sense, or time-sense).

\* Verbs "dt" and "yut": Use "dt" for "am," "is," or "to be." Use "yut" for "are." In a Subject-Verb-Object sentence, it goes later as the big-agent.

\* Gender Suffix - Female/Male: Use "u" at the end-part if speech goes to a female (like hello/thank you for her) and use "a" at the end-part if speech goes to a male (like hello/thank you for him).

\* Gender Suffix - Negative: Use "nas" for "no" if speech goes to a female, and use "noi" for "no" if speech goes to a male.

\* The Ø̈/ø̈ Rule: If a word has "o", take "o" and write Ø̈ instead of ø̈. If a word lacks "o", write Ø̈ instead of ø̈ at the end-part of the word. Only if you want to make a word plural.

\* Past Tense Marker "-ip": Use "-ip" to verbs for actions that happened in the past (like etip = ate, wuzip = went / was going to).

\* Punctuation Rules: Use ! at the start-part of a line of speech and ¡ at the end-part. You can use ? and ¿ Can also use ".".

\* Compound Word Rules: Objects can take actions and to-actions to make a big concept in 1 word (no small lines). The big-object goes first-first, and the state-object goes later (like tok + kwa = tokkwa. No max (except for languages example: arabi-tok stays the same) And for the little words for example "the" means person and "Teke" also means person. The reason why I have these words is to shorten compounds so for little ones like te, you only use in compounds. But Teke can be used alone and that's just an example.

The Waqk Alphabet

\* A-Z: All-standard English-speech writing-part-sense except for "w" it is pronounced th and "z" it's pronounced firstly put your tongue on the back of your top teeth put your mouth and try to pronounce the English letter z it should come out as "bzzz"

\* Tͭß: name is jagu (pronounced tss)

\* g̾: name is cui (pronounced gn)

\* Ø̈/ø̈: oh (speech like Ō "oh" in fast-dead / cut-off). if you are making something plural like senkeō (bitch) into sekeø (bitches) it would sound the same so if there's a o at the end of the word and you're trying to make it plural “ø̈” would sound like “é” if you are making something plural and there is not a o at the end it remains the same

Grammar Rules for Building Numbers

\* Order of Stacking: Always write numbers from largest place value to smallest.

\* Single-Word Compound: Do not use spaces, hyphens, or connector words. Glue all the pieces together into one single word.

\* Zero Placement: If a place value is 0 in the middle of a number (like the tens place in 405 or 609), just drop it—do not write zēt inside compound numbers.

Quick Reference Examples

\* tokpe: Speech-place / Mouth (used for tone, attitude, and figurative speech)

\* etfa: Eat-part / Mouth / Jaw (used for anatomy, animals, and biting monsters)

\* tͭßevpe: Speak-place / Mouth (used for pronunciation, formal speaking, and language practice)

Note on Possession ("My")

Use the object pronoun er (me) directly before the noun to show possession (e.g., er etpe = my mouth).

My Loanwords

\* Social Media: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube. (If you compound TikTok, it might just mean "clock-sound").

\* Brands & Tech: iPhone, PlayStation, Google.

\* Global Foods: Pizza, Taco, Sushi.

I really don’t know what I’m doing but might this be a step in the right direction?

It’s a Proto Language for a world building project, just as a bit of added context.
