    The fricatives are fricative trills. I would transcribe the sound as X͡ʀ (X being a placeholder for the sound).

    Hey fun fact: in Nguh's video announcing CCC3 he showed a screenshot of Tom Scott talking about some videos he saw from CCC2 and he specifically mentioned yours as one he saw. So I guess Tom Scott is aware of your beautiful French^3.

    So I just wrote a paper on a section of al-idrisi's book, you may already have found this out, but the only full translation into a European vernacular is in french and from the 19th century. There is a new and better translation of the western half of the book from the 1990s, also into french. Other than that a number of papers explore his descriptions of (mostly european regions) and contain translations of sections of the text so you might be able to find some more info on that, however a lot of the papers are not in english.

      The funny thing is: that's not a joke. It's gnomic as in the Greek gnosis. It is used to refer to eternal truths. Most Native American languages have it, actually.

    I just noticed your font makes lines in apostrophes and quotation marks identical, so when under phonotactics it talks about "'" (apostrophe in quotation marks) it just looks like a pair of quotation marks with nothing in them and one of the marks having three lines. An extra little bit of cursedness to make even talking ABOUT this language weird. EDIT: I wonder: Did you just pronounce θͬæͬɐ̃ͬχ̓ɤ̞̃ɐ̃ͬlͬ perfectly once and edit it on, or were you mad enough to pronounce it every time, every take?

      @@stephenkramer7157 The things some of us will go to to entertain people on the internet.... By the way I've noticed: The language's name seems to have 3 syllables, with a significant pause between the ɤ̞̃/e and ɐ̃ͬ/u. How come these two vowels are so separate rather than being a diphthong? I apologize if this was explained in the phonotactics section, I don't know linguistic terminology that well yet outside of the IPA.

    ok i know you said the trilled vowels are a cursed sound that the mouth can produce but don't exist in language, but I actually use those sounds when speaking french. in works like 'trois', I end mixing a uvular trill throughout the vowel

  • @JohnSmith-of2gu
    @JohnSmith-of2gu 5 месяцев назад

    WHAT MADNESS IS THIS?!? How do you come up with, much less execute, the idea of a conlang with infinite trills who's orthography corresponds *exactly* to the French bee movie script without giving any indication it does so? You utterly brilliant bastard. Even before the punchline, I burst out laughing every time your normal smooth English was interrupted by the hellish growl of you pronouncing the language name. I haven't smiled so hard in years. Even if it only takes you 5 seconds on average to come up with an article and you work 15 hour work days, that's still 13 days of work to make that insane excel spreadsheet. Are you OK? Do you need a hug?
