Lāgsmān is a Germanic language(specifically of the fictional South Germanic family) spoken by the nomadic Lagsmen, who freely roam the area between Trieste, Graz and Zagreb, colloquially known as the Lāgsmānland[1]. The endonym is a portmanteau of the Proto-Germanic word *hlaupanan, "to leap"(also the root of German laufen, to walk) and man, from Proto-Germanic *manwaz.

Introduction

The main idea around this language is just to make a really goofy Germanic language without straying from that root. So in a way, its kind of like a jokelang, but I genuinely plan on fleshing the language out.

  1. ^ The Lāgsmānland is not a genuine nation-state, but the area is mostly united by ethnicity, culture and language, like Kurdistan. Of course, there are many who wish to see a Lāgsmānland nation-state, similar to Kurdistan, but the nationalistic sentiment is less widespread than Kurdistan. Kurdistana Azad!
