Ooh, I just _love_ how "the beginning causes the end" is written! Idk why that exactly, I really liked most of what was presented here, but that stood out. And I believe that the last example to be deciphered would mean something like "The beginning being the same as the end implies time not existing".
hi, cool stuff. rn it seems to me, u somehow splited mindmap teknique into dictionary of core pieces, and making conlang of it. its not just "non-linear", it might be actually really useful as extension for mindmaps. thing feels fresh, clear and native af. imagine solving complex problem, and be able to put all puzzle pieces onto the same page, with no boilerplate, just by translation to this language. ..to write the placement, to develop/unwrap branches, ... also skip obvious intersteps to make script laconic. Although, if it possible to "inline" english text into conlang, in a diegetic way of? Oh yeah, its ur conlang after all, but it got me scratch-charged from one a bit)
This sounds very cool, using this for (or making a similar conlang specifically designed for) mindmapping. I've been exploring thoughts of using this sort of language for math, and using it to solve complex problems would be awesome. There's obvs a lot of terms missing, but it could be worked into the lang alongside the more conversational stuff.
Fascinating! Your language reminds me somewhat of propositional logic. Was that an inspiration? I see you have a symbol for "is" but there are different kinds of "is". There's identity as in "John is my father". There's also proper inclusion, as in "John is a father" ("X is a member of the set of Ys). Do you distinguish those? There's locative and possessive usages too but I think you've covered them. How about generalities? "Birds sing" refers to a typical case. It does not guarantee that any one individual bird can sing. Nor does it mean that all birds sing all the time. Finally, proper names. Do you have a way to distinguish, say, person called "Star" from a statement about an actual star?
I come from a mathematical background, so logic was definitely an inspiration (at one point, I wanted to try developing the lang from the bottom up using only logic and math as the starting points, and there are still elements of that in the current version). The lang is still very much in its beginnings, so there's a lot of grammatical features yet to add, like identity vs proper inclusion and proper nouns. Right now, the language really just deals with generalities (other than the pronouns "you" and "I"), and the next thing I should add is the equivalent of articles. Just something without ambiguity (my mind would rather not have to rely on context, ideally).
Do y'all have any ideas for symbols? If so, I would love to hear them!
Mrrrrrrrrrow (translation: Very cool grammar! Can’t wait to see what you develop next ^^)
Neeeeoooowwwww (translation: eeeheeheee thank you! I appreciate it!)
12:55 I think it means:
“The end being the beginning implies that there is no time”
You got it! Hell yeah!

Looking in the comment section, yup, although I did make my translation a bit wordy lol
It was still right, tho, and that's all that matters. Means the lang is fairly understandable! Yay!
And thank you!
Hmmm fascinating, I'm glad i found this channel
