Welcome to Nicolás Straccia's user page on Linguifex!
Languages
There was a hiatus between conlanging periods.
This listing is incomplete in at least two senses: existing conlangs are still being wikified, and new conlangs will continue expanding it.
Early conlangs
These are the conlangs I created when I first started crafting languages, when I was about 12 years old (ca. 2000) and for the following two or three years. I'm very fond of this early creations, and I've started a revamping process to take advantage of the knowledge I've gained in the years passed since their original conception and bring them back. From this time I have mostly sketches, all in paper; most of the languages and sketches have their own writing systems too.
Conworld #1
Conworld #2
The general concept for this conworld was largely inspired by reading some of the works by J. R. R. Tolkien, in particular the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, mainly in that its story would revolve around the interactions of at least three "races": gnomes, elves and men.
Other conlangs
New conlangs
These are the conlangs I started crafting after having had a hiatus in my activity, starting again ca. 2012.
For some of this conlangs I wrote up samples for a thread in the Facebook group "Constructed languages", in which I'm also a member of the administration team. The task was proposed as a small game: "From all your conlangs, pick one word to represent the language and describe it!".
All the languages of Yrḳuti are a priori naturalistic artlangs. These are some of the documented conlangs, in no particular order:
- The language known as I Kronurum (IK) is a part of the Northern Languages linguistic family, which populates the northern region of the central continent.
- Notwithstanding the several subgroups that have split from this branch at different stages, this Central Branch of the family has been studied as a continuity in which four main stages can be identified: Ancient IK (AIK), Old IK (OIK), Middle IK (MIK; together with Early-MIK, EMIK) and Modern IK (MoIK; together with Early-MoIK, EMoIK).
- The developmental stage presented in this article is that of Middle IK (MIK). At this stage, a group of OIK speakers has already moved westwards from the AIK speaker's cultural Urheimat, which was located in the plains in the northern region of the central continent. MIK is thus the main variety spoken in the region nearby and at the shores of the northern sea.
- The endonym of this region is Ifarka, which is translated as "The Land". It is divided in several administrative provinces or marks, called Igódánafáreþ, which hold periodical meetings regarding whichever matters would affect the generality of the Hold.

- The Romà language, called internally "a dinc nòsta" («نوسثا طينك ا», «נאסת דינך ה», «ⴰ ⴷⵉⵏⴽ ⵏⵧⵙⵜ»), “our language”, is an Western Iberian Romance language of the Pyrenean-Mozarabic group. With ca. 1500 speakers, it’s a highly endangered language. Most of its speakers live around the comune of Dagràn, Taghramt, Morocco (Fahr Anjra prefecture, Tanger-Tetuán region).
- Considered one of the "languages of aljamía", it had its highest point of developement and spread around the ninth century. Compared with its palaeographic registers, the language doesn’t seem to have changed all too much since then.
