On a priori

Regarding User:H._H._P._M._P._Cole/Sketchbook#Why_I_am_uninterested_in_creating_a_priori_languages_(in_general),

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)
