Ao (Te Reo Māori: Ao; Mandarin: 地球 Dìqiú) is the creation of a Fyxoomian conlanger, Shlomo Kuaishi.

Star system

Ao is the 3rd of 8 planets orbiting the yellow main sequence star Sol (Te Reo Māori: Tama-nui-te-rā, Mandarin: Tàiyáng), in the Milky Way Galaxy. Here are the names of the planets in Te Reo Māori and Mandarin Chinese (with Pīnyīn transliterations for the latter):

  • Whiro / 水星 Shuǐxīng
  • Kōpū / 金星 Jīnxīng
  • Te Ao / 地球 Dìqiú
  • Matawhero / 火星 Huǒxīng
  • Rangawhenua / 木星 Mùxīng
  • Rongo / 土星 Tǔxīng

The last two planets do not have Te Reo Māori names due to an earlier draft of the conworld only having six planets.

  • 天王星 Tiānwángxīng
  • 海王星 Hǎiwángxīng

Languages

Many languages on Earth use phonologies very similar to languages of Tricin. But Schngellstein often groups them in weird ways, so that phonologies from totally unrelated languages can show up in the same language family, and vice versa.

Here are a few:

  • Uralic
    • Finnic
      • Finnish
      • Estonian
    • Hungarian
  • Sino-Tibetan
    • Old Chinese
      • Mandarin Chinese
      • Cantonese
      • Shanghainese
    • Tibetan
    • Burmese
  • Semitic (another Quihum and Lakovic inspired family, but with Netagin morphology)
    • Biblical Hebrew (quasi-Classical Windermere)
      • Israeli Hebrew (Hebrew with a Windermere accent)
    • Arabic (triconsonantal pseudo-Old Nurian/Shalaian)
      • Maltese (Even more like Modern Nurian)
    • Amharic (pseudo-Häskä)
  • Mon-Khmer
    • Khmer (quasi-Windermere)
    • Vietic
      • Vietnamese (tonal quasi-Trây)
  • Tai-Kadai
    • Thai
  • Hmong-Mien
    • Hmong (tonal Eevo + Roshterian; a counterpart to French in the "other Talma", where final consonants mark tone instead of being silent)
  • Eskimo-Aleut
    • Kalaallisut
  • Ubykh
  • Turkic
    • Turkish
  • Japanese (A CW language with a simple syllable structure, loosely Prepsocandin Clofabosin-like)
  • Korean (A CW language where Sinitic borrowings sound like Anbirese)
  • Uto-Aztecan
    • Nahuatl (ejectiveless pseudo-Naquian)
  • Salish
    • Lushootseed (inspired by Skellan-accented Swuntsim)
  • Dravidian
    • Tamil (fricativeless)
  • Drug generic names (Clofabosin gib)
  • Na-Dené
  • Pama-Nyungan (Tamil gibs)
  • Austronesian
    • Malay (a refining of an earlier conlang project, Te Reo Māori)
    • Te Reo Māori (his first serious conlang)

Regions

  • Eurasia
    • A "Talman" area in the northwest
    • Two large CW areas (one of them a subcontinent)
  • Africa (A continent to the south of Eurasia)
    • Click heaven
    • Prefixing heaven
  • North America (loosely-Txapoalli gib continent)
  • South America
  • Australia (Tamil gib continent)
  • Antarctica

Musical cultures

Indonesia

Non-octave tunings based on inharmonic spectra; various 5-note divisions of the octave

Instruments: large orchestras made up of metallophones and gongs are common

Western Europe

A tradition of meantone temperament and large orchestras

Arab world

A heptatonic melodic monophonic tradition with diatonic and neutral intervals, analogous to Netagin hanier; kinda but not really tetrachordal

Siberia

A style of "throat singing" making use of harmonic series scales

North America

A period of intense experimentation with just intonation and other linear temperaments. Key figures: Harry Partch, Ivor Darreg, Erv Wilson, Julián Carrillo, Ezra Sims
