Tricin (Clofabosin: tricin /tɾikin/ 'world'; Chick Corean: xjeof) is an open-source collaborative conworld originally created by User:IlL (and to a large extent, User:Praimhín), where Clofabosin is the international lingua franca in contemporary times.

Active contributors list

Active contributors should add themselves here. You can describe what tasks you want to do in the near future.

Todo for contributors

  • Cleanup!
  • Avoid words that sound like profanities in common Earth languages in the conlangs
  • Find some microtonalist types
  • Find a domain to host a dedicated wiki on
  • Global warming might force people to migrate - main driver of linguistic change in the beginning of postmodern Tricin?
  • Trician architecture?
  • A Tricin manga series or video game?

Star system

G-type star: actin in Clofabosin

Planet names:

  • spitin
  • tricin
  • alatin
  • fricodin
  • sterocitin
  • tarofudin
  • clifarin
  • zanteromin

Planetary characteristics

1 HM year = 381.3668618 Earth days = 357.0806527870906 HM days = 1.04410737342 Earth years

1 HM day = 25.6323176 hours

86400

357 days = 51 7-day weeks

leap day every 12.3988275678 years

months: 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29(30)

every 12 except: when the year is divisible by 372

perfect for clofabians

so the years 270, 520, 790, X40, 10E0, 1360, 1610, 1880, ... are not leap years

actually if the year is divisible by 130944=352*372 it's a leap year

Areas

Continents:

  • Etalocin
  • Zoomosphere
  • Naquosphere
  • ???
  • Two polar ice sheets

Etalocin

Main article: Verse:Etalocin

Naquosphere

Loanwords tend to come from:

Modern features: large clitic complexes

Ancient Naquian tradition of theater, motivating linguistic analysis

Language families of Clotricin

Programming languages

  • Verbose language with Clofabosin keywords (Java + Python hybrid)

"if X": X sartan (sartan = "case, condition")

"for i in range(1,10)": (1,10) apidan gaptan i ibat (gloss: "(1,10) range member i DISTRIBUTIVE")

"while X": X otetan (otetan = "period of time")

  • Functional language
  • C analogue

Musical cultures

Zoomosphere

Gamelan-like orchestras with metallophones/marimbas, drums, gongs. Use of voice or other harmonic timbres is limited.

Tuning: various inharmonic tunings

Naquosphere

Religions, mysticism and philosophy

  • Ftseezhic pantheism/animism
  • Naquian paganism - develops into science fiction!
  • Clofabian paganism
  • A more universalistic religion (in the same general cluster as Christianity or Mahayana Buddhism)
    • Perhaps the former multiple gods coalesce into one God - instead of elimination of other gods in favor of one of them
    • A person goes to a (potentially infinite?) chain of purgatories after they die - one's karma increases or reduces time served in purgatories
    • Heaven exists, "hell" is when a soul spends indefinite time in purgatories
    • People drawing up graphs/trees of afterlives lol
      • This turns into various board games
    • Question: "Assume that there is a God whom we trust and want to get messages from. When can you trust someone who claims to be God?"
      • This leads to discussions of computer security protocols before computers were invented
      • "God's Public Key" = either a satirical TV show episode, a short story or a song

People

Surnames are bolded.

needs more linguists!

Naquosphere

  • Quēhtloyoz - ancient Naquian linguist, wrote the first detailed grammar on Hussmauch
  • Huichaltzah - explorer, phonetician, playwright and conlanger; explored Sjeudin around fT 432, discovered the languages and foretold the evolution of Xaetjeon
  • Wañjeeyiʼ - Sjowaazheñ poet
