On a priori
To say a passage written in an a priori conlang is gibberish would be a misunderstanding of its (the passage's) purpose, which is not to communicate what it supposedly says, but rather to showcase the abstract rules of that conlang in action. When I do an a priori conlang, it isn't meant for communication: it is to illustrate a previously unreported way of organizing sound and meaning. Making up a priori words offers greater freedon for this end.
Anyway, happy holidays and greetings from an a priori conlang guy. SN2rname (talk) 10:54, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- You have a point there - however, I have a question. How could average people, with little to no linguistics knowledge, be able to discern the abstract rules of (any) conlang? H. H. P. M. P. Cole (talk) 11:36, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
- Usually, an example text written in an a priori conlang would be accompanied by a word-by-word gloss (the go.3SG.PRES sort of thing). The gloss would describe the semantic or syntactic role of each word in the text so the grammatical rules are exemplified. SN2rname (talk) 10:50, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
- You're right, I didn't think about glosses... Anyway, you raised some important points, which I will keep in mind. H. H. P. M. P. Cole (talk) 11:56, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
Riemannic and The Colepypasta
I recently read the Riemannic page. I think it did a good job mixing different languages and concepts while maintaining a coherent theme.
So now I'm curious what the main arguments of "The Colepypasta" are. I'm lost;
not ( ( your thought of_the your manait out_of your ?flicker? ) is a ?slander? of_the operation with nēm "I think with this þīsætērvug" ) ɣrum? two lemen.
