    As a conlang enjoyer who’s always wondered what the absolute goofiest conlang would be, Goofy Ahh Language is perfect!
    Suggestion: Add every single type of click consonant or add different types of vowel phonation (breathy voice and creaky voice)

    We need more tenses. Most languages have 3, English 18, Ahh should have at least 193.
    It is clearly not enough to distinguish linguistically whether something happened 5 minutes or 2 hours ago. It should also depend on how many meal times passed and what you had for those meals.

    It should be completely random and unpredictable what gender a noun has, so even someone who has gone through the pain of learning the language would still use wrong articles on front of the nouns which would sound weird and wrong to fictional native speakers making the language impossible to learn perfectly. Same as German. Also why are there no click phonemes?

      Well, it's not unpredictible and random in German. It totally makes sense once you've learned Nominative, Accusative, Dative and Genitive. It makes sense that if you are saying that thing ownes something that the article for thing, which would normally be the feminine "die" is now the feminine "der"(not to be be mistaken for the masculine Nominative article "der").
      Nominative Masculine: der
      Nominative Feminine: die
      Nominative Neuter: das
      Nominative Plural: die
      Accusative Masculine: den
      Accusative Feminine: die
      Accusative Neuter: das
      Accusative Plural: die
      Dative Masculine: dem
      Dative Feminine: der
      Dative Neuter: dem
      Dative Plural: den
      Genitive Masculine: des
      Genitive Feminine: der
      Genitive Neuter: des
      Genitive Plural: der
      This is super easy!
      Now for the indefinite articles:
      Nominative Masculine: ein
      Nominative Feminine: eine
      Nominative Neuter: ein
      Accusative Masculine: einen
      Accusative Feminine: eine
      Accusative Neuter: ein
      Dative Masculine: einem
      Dative Feminine: einer
      Dative Neuter: einem
      Genitive Masculine: eines
      Genitive Feminine: einer
      Genetive Neuter: eines

    You should use different sentence structures for differents times of the day. Like in the morning you'd say "good morning, how are you", but in the evening, since the day is concluding so too should your sentence, so you say "how are you, good evening".

  • @thefoxandferret
    @thefoxandferret 10 месяцев назад +1

    Why stop the fun with verb tenses? There are also tenses in nouns. Instead of using prepositions, make a declension for each preposition you would use.
    If you don't know what declensions are, think about pronouns. "I" and "me" both mean "me as a person, as myself". But they mean different things (I is nominative, me is accusative.) Imagine this with prepositions. Instead of saying: "on top of me", we can invent the work "metot" - "metot" being in the superlative case.
    In this example, the sentence: "he stood on top of me" can be shortened to "he stood metot."
    You can get fun cases when instead long sentences like "turning towards the room, he ran out of the fire, into the door and under the blue sky", you get: "turning roomjt, he ran firetif, doorvot, blue skyis", wiht room in the orientative case, fire in the elative case, door in the Illative case, and sky in the subessive case.
    Do this for every prepositions - I think there are 150 common prepositions in english, which mean for each noun (and pronoun), you have to remember 150 versions of it.
    So instead of remembering the word door, you now have to remember
    Door (nominative)
    Doorit (accusative, object)
    Doorif (genitive, of the door)
    Doorvof (privative case, without a door)
    What you can do to make this even better is to actually make an actual pattern in which noun cases are declined. The trick here instead is that each noun will have different number of cases. Remembering the valid cases of each noun is harder then just remembering them as your memory starts to stick together, finding patterns where they are none.
    have fun :}

    suggestion: adjectives and/or adverbs exist, which may take marking for one or more of a set of element-related ''genders' relating to the semantic "energy" of the adverb. some ideas for specific categories may include, but are not necessarily limited to: fire, water, earth, air, ether, dark matter, and cthulhu. this can, as with noun gender, completely change the meaning of an adverb.
    it may also be that these genders are even further subdivided into sub-genders, which take one of several additional markers. for example, the water gender could have subgenders including, but not limited to: rain water, salt water, "the sea", chemically-treated water, condensation, steam, and so on - as many as are desired and can be incorporated into the goofy ahh language.
    this might be a good opportunity to slip in some avatar and/or lovecraft references, and also create some chaotic unpredictability with regards to the assignment of genders, subgenders, or maybe even both...

    I suggest marking gender on verbs like arabic, but extending it: you gotta mark the gender of the speaker/writer, listener/reader, subject, object, benefactive, place in which the action has taken place, and time
    Then there's clearly a need for gender to be marked in different ways when change tense, aspect, and mood (in the past you might use the masculine gender, but in the present there should be clearly a sus)
    The verb should also agree with its subject and object in a variety of classifiers, like in Navajo, so a verb having a small object should mark it on the verb, but this should also be coupled with the movement that the object and subject are making while performing the action (if you kiss someone while moving down a hill you should mark it for both the subject and object)
    This seems enough for needless conplexity (but evidentiality and miravity could be good ideas)

    Maybe assigning a gender to each noun should be subject to an honorific system. So the gender of pencil, for example, could be masculine when talking to a parent, teacher or boss, feminine when talking to an older friend or stranger, and neuter when talking to a younger friend or child. But this is just for the word for pencil. Each noun has its own rules and exceptions for which gender it belongs to depending on who you are talking to.
